Mon Jul 21, 2014 at 03:00 PM PDT 'Serious' Question about the Hobby Lobby ruling: Can I stop paying my student loans?

by OllieGarkeyFollow

Gotta think that this will be quite the dilemma for some very prominent/wealthy faithful Bible Thumpers - Hey?

"Because here's what it seems like to me. I cannot be forced to act in a way inconsistent with my religious beliefs."

The possible applications of this thought - is - to say the least - MIND BOGGLING.

The article ( OP ) is mostly about abolishing student loans - BUT - the concept works for any loan - ANY - and - ALL.

Whooo Boy what a can of worms - Hey? {:-])

In the Christian Religion, and in Holy Scripture, the charging of interest is considered Usury, and is sinful.

In the Christian Religion, and in Holy Scripture, all debts are required to be forgiven every few years, in what is called the "Year of Jubilee." I sincerely believe that the year of jubilee should transpire every seven years.

Jesus was pretty cool with you, unless you were a banker. If you were, he was going to attack you with a whip. The one time Jesus was totally okay with violence was violence directed at money changers.

Being that I believe all this stuff, with a worrying intensity, am I within my religious rights as an individual to declare my student loans null and void?

So I'm thinking of starting a Kickstarter campaign to hire a lawyer and take this case to the supreme court. A class-action lawsuit on behalf of every student whose religion defines interest as usury, and whose religion has the concept of debt forgiveness.

Off the top of my head, that's Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. Probably some traditional native American religions as well, as acting on greed is generally considered to be a terrible thing in those religions. Considering Buddhism's beliefs on property, they may be able to jump on with this class action lawsuit as well. And hey, Pastafarians? I'm not sure what his starchiness has to say about student loans, but I'm pretty sure you can jump on this boat too. Because the courts are also pretty clear: My religion doesn't have to be reasonable. I don't even have to prove that this is a reasonable interpretation of my own religion. I just have to believe it. Sincerely.

Abridged from your link. I'm not laughing though. It's serious & people should do it - ''Pastafarians'' n' all.

It is so perfect - the stupe-reme cour(pse)t just said that it's the law.

ACLU - lets get on this - haul them lenders into court and hit em with a cease and desist.

The SCrOTUS - which is someone else's great neologism here - has basically usurped the USG - having been stacked before hand by - Right Wing Corporate Lawyers. They are now the true rulers of The U$A ! The POTUS is a puppet !! Oblah-blah more than most !!! Wassup with the 'stinkles' btw, lol & hmmmm ?

The SCrOTUmS - also works - everyone should express their derision for the F-ers.
