One Market Under God

Thomas Frank makes the point in his book, title above, that our notion of free market has become a religion. How so? Do he overstate the case or not?
I don't think he overstates it.
Just like God, the Free Market is some sort of massive reality beyond our understanding, doh! So we'd better let it do what it wants or it'll act up rough!

It gives you an idea how inane our notions of God are, if any complex phenomenon that is blind and stupid and inhuman can be considered by us to be a god!
