      I think you’re conflating things here — the faith bit is just that those running the scheme are flouting their religion. The scheme itself is designed to look like a cooperative, where everyone shares the costs, without it somehow being labeled gambling or socialism.

      The base concept is sound; it’s the window dressing and the actual operation of the scheme that’s twisted.
