I saw from a video that the reason why the Bible condemns the rich is because they had a view that economics is zero-sum where if one obtains wealth then one has to get poorer. However a modern understanding of economics shows that this isn't the case. And for usury and interest, it is because they didn't understand modern theories of interest, and that interest can actually help society instead of harming it. So taking this into account, is Christianity and the Bible outdated when it comes to economics?

Many Christians who are Complementarianism will bring up sexual dimorphism and monogamy as human nature and God’s design. However it is known by biologists and anthropologists that higher sexual dimorphism is correlated with more promiscuous mating patterns. This appears to be in conflict with monogamy with is associated with less sexual dimorphism. How do Complementarians who bring up the differences between men and women as something to be defended while also defending monogamy?

I’ve been looking around for a small piece of osmium for element collecting and I saw that they had a good price for their 1g beads. However I am worried that I could be duped in buying another metal that isn’t osmium. Has anybody purchased from them and able to verify?

According to Wikipedia, Biological determinism is the belief that human behaviour is directly controlled by an individual's genes or some component of their physiology, generally at the expense of the role of the environment, whether in embryonic development or in learning.

Assume there is a device that is implemented into your brain that makes you physically incapable of lusting that isn’t your married partner. Additionally this device would always guarantee that you would always be 100% attracted to your spouse to the point that you would still be fully in love with your partner after decades.

As a Christian, are you morally obligated to use this device?
