Hard to say. In the spectrum of Conquest, Thievery, Private Sector, Government, or Church, which utilizes capital better and which spurs more capital as a consequence? Private, government, and church all can. But what capital did the church produce other than magnificent edifices a clergy that was tragically corrupt at the cost of nearly a quarter of local GDP? Had the church performed education rather than indoctrination or at least in addition to it, we could easily claim the church. Otherwise it’s kind of hard to see how it differs from the state.
