As posted earlier, about the talk by David Pidcock on 'The Abuse of Money... from Plato to Nato', there was some interesting points for the muslim ummah.

The whole summary is too large to put in here. So me just putting a part from it that it relevant to the previous thread discussed here

-------------------------------------------------------
And he also spoke about the recently held conference, 'Is Global Complementary Currency Compatible with Sharia'h'? The conference had answered this question positively. The aim of the conference was to study the possibilities of creating a global currency that was

interest-free

Technically efficient

politically realistic

globally convertible

And value of the new currency, pet-named terra, would be a mix of gold dinar, barrel of oil and other commodities. This would stop the currency traders from money speculation games.

Lights on! The projector was switched off. And the laptop was unplugged. The speech ended. A book was offered for sale, a small portion of which would go for a girl lying in comma at a local hospital.
