I don't see how anyone can argue that ALL evil is caused by the love of money - there's plenty of evils that surely can't have been caused by love of money, what about religious wars or mass murder by a serial killer? Can anyone please explain this? Thanks for helping!

I love oil painting very much and I want to make a site which will include a lot of masterpieces. The goal of this site is to be a free art source that the visitors could enjoy himself in the art world.
As is known to all, most of the masterpiece is of public domain and is out of copyright. But the problem I am encountering is, the paintings of artist A is certain and If I add the artist's works into my site, the content will be the same as other sites. I wonder whether I am disobeying the copyright.

... if i met a view that God is Nothing and Everything, is that so important where i got it ? Haven't you met this opinion before ? Is that so difficult to admit that everything is possible if everythingis possible for Him ? Is not this the true humble and tolerance ? Zen buddhists swear that word is nothing unless you have the experience - is not more important to EXPERIENCE and spread God e.g. to laugh/love ? If buddhist find so many experiencies in emptiness is not it interesting as well ? Can you measure beauty ? Can you measure Love ? Isn't it Nothing in material world Everything in the spiritual one ? Is not Spirit the highest form of the matter ? And again - is that so important where i met this view ?

your thinking/belief seems to arrest the developement of God at the sub-atomic level. You don't seem to understand MAN IS GOD! You're stuck in the early stages of God's developement and seeing only that as God, which is like seeing an egg as a chicken! Or seeing sperm and egg cells, as people. Or seeing a spermatozoon as a Man. Sure there is a process each one goes through which eventually transforms one into the other, but you would never see a seed and a tree as the same thing. You worship the initial stages of His self-creation as God, when you should worship God at His final stage of completion, which is Man! You don't seem to understand Man is the end result of the self-creation process and that's who God is - A MAN! So here you are worshiping intelligence, wisdom, power, force, spirit, essense and mind; all of which is possessed by MAN. When you worship these things brother, you're only worshipping Yourself or particular aspects of Yourself. In his totality, Man is all the above. That was the goal of the Originator, to create Himself as a Man. You keep saying God(Allah) exists within man. But the Messenger takes it much further. He states GOD IS MAN! Period! Through and through. Inside and out. This 'Divine Essence' you keep speaking of is the Black Man. You want to separate the two and place one inside the other which is ridiculous. It's like saying, "water is within ice" or "water is the divine essence of ice". But when we use the Messenger's logic, common sense and reality as our guide, we know that ICE IS WATER! To say water exists within ice is quite redundant and totally unnecessary. I don't worship the 'first cause'(whatever that was), I worship the 'final effect'(Man-the true and living God). Your God is so incomplete. It can't see, hear or speak among other things and I'm just scratching the surface. Your God is still at the embryonic level. God didn't create Man(someone other/lesser than Himself). God created Man(Himself). Don't you see the difference between these two statements?

We all know that Pharoah with his army pursued Moses and the Israelites but the sea opened out and Moses and his clan were able to crossover,while Pharoah and his army drowned when the sea caved in when they were in the middle.Was Pharoah's body ever recovered and buried in the Pyramids as previous Egyptian Royalty did?
