I am wanting to know what Christian theologians and writers have said about the morality of owning stocks of companies whose business model revolves around un-Christian items, such as armaments, tobacco, alcohol, and pornography. I also would like to see some writing on companies that support wrong causes such as Planned Parenthood, homosexual agenda, etc.

The Bible

2Chron18-19
Jehoshaphat (good king) made an alliance with Ahab (bad king). He almost died and when he made it back from the war the prophet Jehu said "Shouldest thou help the ungodly, snd love them that hate the Lord? therefore is wrath upon thee from the Lord."

“Can two walk together, except they be agreed?” (Amos 3:3).

“Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness?” (2 Corinthians 6:14)

(Eph 5:6-8,11) Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. Be not ye therefore partakers with them For ye were sometimes darkness, but now ye are light in the Lord: walk as children of the light: And have no
fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.


Christians should not partake in business ventures with those who stand in opposition to God

try google. I know Proctor and Gamble got a lot of bad PR a years ago. Target also has a homosexual agenda. I still shop at Target though. Try this website. I don't agree with all of the articles especially when they're politically charged.
