    The word is borrowed from the French

    You asked for the translation did you not? Why would anyone care what the French thought? Approximately 1/3rd of all the words in English are loan words from a latinate language. In all cases, what matters in not what the original meaning was but what it means now, in English.

    You did not provide one, you just gave the signification of the corresponding english word. That is not translation.

          Karl seems to be caught in the grinning teeth of a "single-line-snappy-response" fad. ;-P

            With all due respect to opposing points of view, I have never seen a laissez-faire capitalist society, nor a totally socialist society. I have seen Capitalism flourish under the worst dictatorships imaginable (ones that maintained at least a nominal Christianity) and I have seen Socialism proclaimed as the law of the land by equally reprehensible dictators who claimed to be warriors of Islam. In my most humble opinion, in religion, in politics, in economic theory, and probably everything else, there are two groups. Those who think that there are people who have or should have the right to use force to tell others what to do and how to do it (always for their own good of course) and those who think that a legal, religious, social concept that must be enforced by the use of police is an abomination. And no, I've never seen nor heard of a society where power didn't come from the barrel of a gun, either. :sigh:

            Fair enough. My only point was that, not only does Socialism not require a culture to start off Christian, but that Christianity is an obsticle for it in some cultures. I was just backing you up with communist theory currently in practice.
