Usury is the charging of interest on loans, & was once outright prohibited in early Christianity, grounded in passages like Luke 6:35 & Exodus 22:25.
The principle was simple: don’t profit from another person’s hardship. Lending, in that context, was meant to be an act of charity, not a tool for gain.
Islam takes an even firmer stance. The Quran, in Surah 2:275, explicitly condemns usury (riba), reinforcing the same underlying idea across traditions: money should not generate profit simply by existing.
At its core, the message is about human solidarity over exploitation… helping those in need without turning their vulnerability into a revenue stream.

I absolutely fkn ❤️ this original clarinet opening from the 1924 Rhapsody in Blue by George Gershwin.
It sounds like every time I’ve ever fallen in love or stepped into something unknown. There’s this hazy, almost sleepy curiosity that suddenly stretches wide open into new possibility.
It’s mysterious, optimistic, a little unpolished in the best way… & then, out of nowhere, it’s alive.
I could loop that first 50 seconds forever. 🎼

😳 based on historical congressional voting records from the 1860s. Reflecting the strong partisan divide during Reconstruction, when Republicans (the party of Lincoln) drove these amendments forward, while most Democrats (especially Southern & conservatives) opposed them.

the only limiting factor is your curiosity and persistence.
