yah know, a lot of the world does not have lien laws. things are built when they have the money, and construction stops when money runs out.

All Comments by Steven Hansen »Ruling Puts Damper on Islamic Bond Issuance [View article]
the statistic on 2/3 of muslims being poor is misleading. simply remove indonesia from the list and whammo - you have a significantly different result.
finally, i do not understand why it must be shenanigans or whatever derogatory word can be conjured up. the main thrust of islam is the avoidance of usury (neither a borrower or lender be). the exact mechanisms are always subject to religious review.
as a Christian, it is amusing to me how our own religious restraints are unnoticed by ourselves. islam has no laws prohibiting stem cell research or birth control.
