Our world today must have been as hard to imagine as it is to imagine the world centuries ago. Like the entire concept that Leviticus and Exodus stated that it was wrong to accept interest on a loan. Martin Luther even tried to keep that up when Calvin split off in the early 1500s. So that’s like a 3000 year period from Leviticus to Calvinism that capitalism just couldn’t exist the way it does today. Every business and many of the shackles on society are tied to interest rates.
