President Joe Biden vowed Friday to push ahead with a new plan providing student loan relief for millions of borrowers while blaming Republican “hypocrisy” for triggering the day’s Supreme Court decision that wiped out his original effort.

    I think it’s time to try a new tactic. Since clearly this court is only interested in hearing cases and issuing rulings for Christian evangelicals, someone needs to bring a suit arguing that their religious liberties were violated when they were forced to take a loan with interest to pay for education. Usury is a sin, both the old and new testaments speak against it, Luke writes that lenders should give with no expectation of profit or return. Paying back this loan would violate closely held religious beliefs, clearly.

      The court, the Republican party, doesn’t care about being Christian. They care about self-enrichment. No, gotcha will never make them pause. The Christians who follow them are fed such controlled media they would never hear the points, and they are so far from any plausible definition of Christian they wouldn’t listen to the end anyways.
