The term usury today though means lending at unethical rates, whereas in the original context, it meant making any kind of profit from loaning money.

While not in the slightest bit religious, I actually think there are many problems with society that can be tracked to the practice of loans and this kind of capital driven value, and taking loans is something I've studiously avoided.
