I believe the word and it says that money is the root of all evil,although I think He might have been talking about how we feel about it some people put money before God and the greed not the paper i think is what He was refering to

No. This verse has been mistranslated so many times. It's almost as bad as the one about don't judge unless you be judged. It is not money that is the root of all evil, but the LOVE of money that is the root of all evil. Instead of worshipping the Living God with all your heart, mind, soul, and strength, people worship money and chase after it their whole lives. Just look at the lottery and all those crazy game shows where people go absolutely bonkers when they win money. It's the love of money, not money in and of itself.

Well, if you're talking about the bible, it's the LOVE of money that's the root of all evil. When you love money more than people or God (according to the bible) you become an evil person. While I disagree with the bible on allot of things, this is one that I happen to agree with. The bible continues this idea, when the people are upset that they have to pay taxes Jesus says to them "who's face is on this coin?" They answer Cesar. Jesus replies "Give unto Cesar what is Cesar's and unto God what is God's." In this case Cesar and the money both represent the physical world. God is spiritual, and it is your spirit that you must give of yourself to God.

Money is NOT the root of all evil, that is often quoted. The Bible says the LOVE of money is the root of all evil. Big difference.
