Note "In 1179, the Third Lateran Council had forbidden all Roman Catholics to lend money at interest, threatening to refuse Christian burial to any who did so." Ref-0152, p. 70. "Saint Thomas Aquinas (1225-1273) proclaimed that 'to take usury for money lent is unjust in itself, because this is to sell what does not exist, and this evidently leads to inequality which is contrary to justice'. . . so spoke Rashi on the brink of the First Crusade: 'He who loans money at interest to a foreigner will be destroyed.'" Ref-0153, pp. 160-161. "The rise of capitalism brought the growing urban society into conflict with the church's prohibition against the loaning of money for interest, a practice it had traditionally regarded as usury." Ref-0169, p. 21.
