“Need more information on borrowing?” it says at our local post shop.

Some questions are really difficult to answer; but not this one, and I am going to answer it. What I mean is that the question is not difficult for me to answer.

Another shop here in town advertises “Buy now Pay later.” Terms apply of course and conditions and fees as well. Those who are interested are advised to ask for details at the counter in the shop.

Another shop here encourages me like this: “Shop now … Pay later! Afterpay available instore now.”

My answer to the question at the beginning is this: “Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for he who loves his fellowman has fulfilled the law.”

You find the answer in the Bible, in the book called Romans. (Romans 13:8)

No, I don’t need more information on borrowing.
