  • Should evangelical Christians take out mortgages?

    Blessed Cheesemaker (cancelled) asked:


    Most of the Evangelical Christians I know are convinced that Jesus is going to return or they are going to be ruptured within 10 years.

    Yet these same people are taking out 30 year fixed mortgages to buy homes. Its pretty clear that they have no intent to make good on their loans and are planning on leaving the Atheists at Citicorp and BofA to foot the bill.

    Should we lobby to add a non belief requirement for mortgage applicants?

      It does seem like they are cheating us out, doesn’t it? =P

      Not very Christian like, eh? =)

      This is true… I feel these damn christians are trying to screw us over once again… always trying to cheat the system… xtians should be allowed to breathe, let alone purchase homes…

      LOL! I think they need to make sure to pay there mortgages before they move on to the next plane. Jesus would’ve wanted his people to be honest.

      So if you don’t want skipping out on your loan to be talked about come judgement day, you better get your affairs in order. Either that or just rent.

      A non-belief requirement would be unconstitutional. There is no reason for Christians not to take out mortgages, but I would not want a 30 year mortgage.

      where in the world do you live that you know people that think that? I’m a Christian and i’ve never heard this before

      Well, I’ll just move into their house with the pets I’ve agreed to care for.

      Have you seen Penn and Teller’s BS about the Apocalypse? They suggests offering Doomsday Christians (and others suffering from omenosis) super low interest mortgages until 2013 and then gouging them if they were wrong (again) about the End of the World.
