This paper presents the inevitable conclusion of five prior works in the V=N/D series: that the moral teachings of history's great saints — Jesus, Buddha, Confucius, Gandhi — are not primarily theological or philosophical in nature. They are economic infrastructure. Every major moral teaching functions as a D-reduction algorithm. The economic ROI of moral infrastructure exceeds military investment, technological investment, and resource extraction by orders of magnitude across every time horizon examined. Saints were not mystics — they were the most effective economic engineers in human history. Their teachings were operating system upgrades for civilization. This paper synthesizes the Zero-Denominator Theology, The Saint Algorithm, The Economics of Aggression, The Civilizational Equation, and The Great Filter Equation into a unified economic framework for moral life.
