Banksters and Gangsters in Capitalist America 

Failing Banks and Rising Usury Rates in Biblical Focus

The Right wing sanctifies Capitalism while damning challenges to it as “Socialism.” The debate is rigged because it has been framed falsely.  Scripturally, the war is not between Capitalism and Socialism but between Mammonism and Biblically-faithful free enterprise.

Usury and the Money Power

 
Usury and the Money Power: A Revisionist History of the Christian Theology of Debt, 1470-1770 

This is a series of lectures based on ongoing research being gathered for Michael Hoffman's proposed book, "Usury: The Mortal Sin that Was and Now Is Not." In these audio CDs, Hoffman challenges the conventional history of the revolutionary permission for usury, documenting a pre-Protestant, Catholic source for this permission. In addition, he offers evidence of widespread, early Puritan resistance to usury. 

This 2.5 hour lecture series on 3 CDs counters the widespread ignorance of the history of early Protestant resistance to usury and exposes the propaganda which assigns the blame for usury to John Calvin, rather than the philosophers and theologians backed by the Fugger banking dynasty and indoctrinated by the liberal Tübingen school of Catholic philosophers.


We cannot successfully contest the Wall Street/Federal Reserve system without accurate knowledge of the 1500-year history of the Christian campaign against indebtedness, social injustice and plutocracy. This history is mostly unknown today.

Many contemporary conservative Christians imagine that the Church was a sort of early branch of laissez-faire capitalism, and that it was the Protestant Reformation which was responsible for the revolutionary overthrow of the Christian ban on interest on loans. None of this is true.

Setting the historical record straight by telling the suppressed story of the Catholic and Protestant churchmen who vigorously fought usury, as well as the modernizing Judases who supported it, gives us the clarity of vision necessary in our time to successfully fight the dragon that is the Money Power. Note: these talks are study lectures, not entertainment.

Digitally recorded in stereo. 156 minutes total. 3 CD set.
