The fantastic idea I had was that someone else in the world had the same idea. An easy place to check is the stock market. People in the world are either as smart as I am or smarter than I am. There are no good ideas, only different thoughts. It is essential to try to think differently from others, even if the utility value of different thoughts is not high.

Esther exemplifies how justice was established against evil, ensuring the survival of the nation even without a direct expression of God. The justice that prevented evil was a public achievement, while national survival was a more self-centered success. Although God’s presence is never overtly revealed, it is a remarkable event that balances public and private spheres. I believe Christian companies should reflect this. Even without explicit exposure to God, it is essential to adhere to laws and common sense necessary for achieving a balanced personal selfishness in maintaining a livelihood. When this balance is struck, Christian companies can reveal God to the world through indirect means rather than through direct revelation.
