An important question from Craig Goodwin:

It’s also possible that Christian perspectives will simply be conflated with powerful secular voices. For example, the mission to “feed the world” tends to be the ethical catch-all for big agricultural interests like profit-seeking Monsanto. In response to questions of their practices they generally say, “Get off our back, can’t you see we’re trying to feed the world here.” The danger is that the Biblical command to “feed the hungry” will be equated with Monsanto’s mission to “feed the hungry.” They are not saying the same thing even if they are using the same words.
