Seriously - the Bible warns about high interest rates and subprime loans?  How can that be?  There weren't any Wall Street banks or investment companies. If Wall Street even existed, it would maybe have been the path along the Wailing Wall along the west side of the temple.   ...

Jesus and the Samaritan Woman.  It's part of John's gospel that is often talked about. However, here's a different view of it.  Sure, it's important to show that the "living water" that Jesus offered was for everyone.  What if we look at it from the point of view of the ...
