"QUESTION LXXVIII. OF THE SI...From the Summa:<br /><br />"QUESTION LXXVIII. OF THE SIN OF USURY THAT IS COMMITTED IN LOANS.<br /><br />Article I.—Is it a sin to take usury for the lending of money?<br /><br />R. To take usury for the lending of money is in itself unjust, because it is a case of selling what is non-existent; and that is manifestly the setting up of an inequality contrary to justice. In evidence of this we must observe that there are certain things, the use of which is the consumption of the thing; as we consume wine by using it to drink, and we consume wheat by using it for food. Hence in such things the use of the thing ought not to be reckoned apart from the thing itself; but whosoever has the use granted to him, has thereby granted to him the thing; and therefore in such things lending means the transference of ownership. If therefore any vendor wanted to make two separate sales, one of the wine and the other of the use of the wine, he would be selling the same thing twice over, or selling the non-existent: hence clearly he would be committing the sin of injustice. And in like manner he commits injustice, who lends wine or wheat, asking a double recompense to be given him, one a return of an equal commodity, another a price for the use of the commodity, which price of use is called usury. But there are things the use of which is not the consuming of the thing: thus the use of a house is inhabiting it, not destroying it. In such things ownership and use may be made the matter of separate grants. Thus one may grant to another the ownership of a house, reserving to himself the use of it for a time; or grant the use and reserve the ownership. And therefore a man may lawfully take a price for the use of a house, and besides demand back the house which he has lent, as we see in the hiring and letting of houses. Now according to the Philosopher, money was invented principally for the effecting of exchanges; and thus the proper and principal use of money is the consumption or disbursal of it, according as it is expended on exchanges."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9695096.post-9917935890440715552015-08-28T19:42:56.940-07:002015-08-28T19:42:56.940-07:00When is the last time you heard a sermon condemnin...When is the last time you heard a sermon condemning usury? The Catholic Church has condemned usury as a sin against Christian charity from the earliest times, (The Council of Nicea had a canon against clergy engaging in usury, and the prohibition was generally applied to all Christians, and condemned by several Popes and bishops) yet this sin has been thrown out, covered up, and quietly excused, and never, ever mentioned anymore. Why is that?

Edward Griffin <br /><br />You will also come to understand why the world has been in a continuous state of war since the Federal Reserve was foisted upon the US in the 1910's. With an unlimited flow of fake cash, countries are free to purchase arms and use them far beyond what they could afford if real money had to be used. <br /><br />It will also explain why a continuous inflation is built into the system which eats away your purchasing and savings power. The US debt will never be paid off because it is not possible for it to be paid off ever. <br /><br />It will also explain why the income tax, which is un-contitutional by its direct order was instituted at roughly the same time as the Fed was created. Paper script is also un-contitutional as the founding fathers knew the evil siren calls of paper money.<br /><br /><br />This is the evil system the giant world banking cartels have strangled the nations and destroy liberty.<br />Michael F Poulinnoreply@blogger.com
