In Pursuit of the Truth About Usury

I love the inquisitive expression on the boy's face as he asks the question:

One more article for sharing as we approach the end of yet another UsuryFree Week (November 13th to 19th, 2014 - The 10th Annual UsuryFree Week.

 By Tom J Kennedy

The exacting of interest (which ought to be correctly defined as usury) on debtor’s loans and mortgages has been so universally accepted for so long that any suggestion that diverts attention from the usual understanding of such is likely to be considered as outright heresy.

For the entire 20th Century and into this 21st Century, it has been taught by the “authorities” in the system that usury is a necessary and beneficial function of our orthodox, economic system of debt money.

This false teaching has been accepted by the multiple millions of debtors (individuals, families, businesses, governments, countries etc.) who are unknowingly subservient to their greedy creditors.

Over the years there has been some evidence of minimal dispute, but these occasional objections have a history of being “lunacy” and/or “impossible.”

The exacting of usury on money (show me any piece of money that can pro-create babies of its own accord?) has been the accepted, false teaching about money and the repercussions are now being felt by the debtors all over the world as we witness a global, economic decline.

During this 10th Annual UsuryFree Week, November 13th to 19th, 2014 (and for the other 51 weeks of the year) readers are invited to do some research on (a) the design flaw of usury and how it inflicts economic pain on debtors and (b) the usuryfree community currency movement and how it liberates its participants from the albatross of usury.

Find out if what debtors have taken for granted is factual or false in the light of Natural or Divine Law.
