Ora, Labora, et Libera - What the Catholic Church Owes Us: A Theory of Constraints Economics Reinterpretation of the Ten Commandments (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798241182289)

Ora, Labora, et Libera is a bold and uncompromising work that asks a question few dare to raise:

What does the Catholic Church owe us?

Not in money, but in intellectual honesty, doctrinal coherence, and fidelity to natural law.

Drawing on the razor-sharp logic of the Theory of Constraints, this book argues that the Church has too often legitimised the coercive power of the state - endorsing taxation, inflation, and political authority that violate the very commandments it claims to uphold.

Using the Theory of Constraints (TOC), the book identifies the Church's alliance with state power as the root bottleneck that distorts its social teaching. A full Current Reality Tree exposes the causal chain linking doctrinal confusion to economic stagnation, moral inconsistency, and the erosion of property rights.

Reinterpreting the Ten Commandments through a libertarian lens, Ora, Labora, et Libera shows that natural law is not a call for state intervention but a defence of private property, voluntary exchange, and sound money.

Dedicated to a Benedictine community, this work calls the Church back to its own roots - to the monasteries that preserved civilisation through work, order, and private stewardship.

Ora, Labora, et Libera.
