Interest system is acceptable for us, multinational companies' hegemony is ok for us and state's authority over wealth is not. how come.

I have read a statement of marx stating "education, religion, morality system are all tools to maintain status quo", if we see it has a bit of truth in it. isn't it. And if we amend it to suit our society maybe it works better than capitalism.

I really want to get convinced against it
Roots of capitalism can be traced in Christian teachings, that is capitalist economies evolved out of Christian beliefs for example rule of law which is essential for capitalism couldn't be made possible without incorporating Christian ethics and morales, or liberty and individual rights basically arose out of Christianity none of the capitalist societies are atheistic, they are secular in spirit, means religion becomes a personal matter whereas under communist regimes state destroys religion
