Joshua, people can harbor whatever religious beliefs they want.
Just because they're not ours doesn't mean we can bash them. If
Beth's religion prevents her from using loans, she'll just have
to be resourceful and find another way to solve her problem.

You know, that some go to extremes.
This isn't the religion discussion list, but I'm tired of people
using
that as an excuse.
Sounds like people using religion to not take their child to the
doctor.
Blessings, Joshua

Well, ... ok, someone made a point that we owe a trillion
dollars
in student loan debt, including the federal government loans.
Some religions, such as Islam, prohibit interesft, which loans
accrue. I know a blind Muslim student or two going to college
who can't do loans, so he has to rely heavily on Rehab to pay
for
it. The only reason I think Rehab's paying for it is because
he's on SSI, holds a Gree Card, is not a citizen of the U.S.,
and
is/was until recently on refugee status in Somalia.
Thanks.

Uh, Beth, what does that have to do with absolutely anything?

This message regards financial aid. Wasif, you said FAFSA
won't
pay if my GPA is below 2.0. Well, I have SSI and can't pay
for school even with loans. Loans aren't worth crap, and
government loans aren't worth crap either. I say this because
some students, even Muslim students, can't pay the loans back
because interesft is considered Riba, or evil. You can't
borrow
money from banks due to religious reasons, and that's the truth
for some people.
