		<description>As part of Christian history one needs to look at the roots of the Austrian School of Economics namely the Scholastics of University Of Salamanca in Spain. These were jesuit priests and took their writings which were influenced by St. Thomas Aquinas and prior to that St. Augustin </description>

		<description>I would add two books to this list:


Jesus for President: Politics for Ordinary Radicals - Shane Claiborn and Chris Haw
Justice: Rights and Wrongs - Nicholas Wolterstorff 

Jesus for President presents a &quot;for beginners&quot; survey of the Biblical story and highlights its political undertones. It presents the salvation story as a struggle between God&#039;s people and evils of Empire. The authors write about how Christians are meant to be a peculiar people, set apart, in-but-not-of the world. They present faith in Christ as political allegiance to a different King and a different Kingdom than any in the world, and the Christians&#039; mission as showing the world that a better world is possible under Christ&#039;s Kingship by being ourselves a foretaste of that better world. Informative, readable, and inspiring. 

Justice sets out to develop a working theory of justice and rights. The author engages with many philosophical theories about justice and rights and develops his own with tedious rigor. It is a dense but rewarding read, and it has informed a lot of the language I use when I discuss issues of liberty, justice, and rights with people. </description>

		<description>I am currently reading &quot;The Dominion Covenant&quot; by Gary North.  He is grounding free market economics in the Bible.  I have very much enjoyed it.</description>

		<description>It strikes me as much easier to be a libertarian once you have the whole system of property rights and the concomitant economics in favor of it spelled out for you fairly clearly.

On that note: I think Rothbard&#039;s &quot;Man, Economy, and the State&quot; should be added as supplemental

Also, Hoppe&#039;s book &quot;A Theory of Socialism and Capitalism&quot; is another good read.

From a practical standpoint, no book compares to Bruce Benson&#039;s &quot;The Enterprise of Law&quot;.  This one book more than any other actually turned me down the path of Market Anarchy.</description>

		<description>Rand was under the silly notion that religious worship was psychotic.  Why one earth would she be added to a list like this?</description>
