Thanks for the note, Paul. I like to show this video when covering Weber in my own introductory sociology course. Since the video has been muted, I think I'll just play my own music while the video plays. Sociology Sounds (http://www.sociologysource.org/sociologysounds/) offers some nice ideas. Check it out.

I am watching your video - and I take issue with what came first the chicken or the egg; i.e., Calvin influenced Protestant Christians to deviate from their religion and change their economic activity and not the other way around. It was not the religion that influenced them to accumulate wealth. Calvin turned Christianity upside down. Christ said rich men had less chance of going to heaven than camels to go thru eyes of needles - but Calvin said to the Protestants opposing the French king and the Catholic Church that they should seek wealth. Weber points this out in The Protestant Ethic. Thus - it was NOT religion but Calvin who influenced the behavior that led to Capitalism. That's NOT in opposition to what Marx said. That's also NOT the religion influencing infrastructure. Marx would argue that Calvin was influenced by the economy adaptation and infrastructure to deviate from the religion.

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is [email protected] and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him
