Wealth,
Some people say that money have been invented by evil so hi can manipulate the world and people in it. Why money are so important. People kill, steal, lire and so on…and for what for a piece of paper or metal. Let’s take diamonds for example what good are they? Shiny…. Why are they so expensive and important for us? I see them for nothing; it is a dead rock why do people love them more then love honesty, trust? What is wrong with the world?

well in this world nothing's for free, times are changing and as times goes on so does the demand for all sorts of things, everyone wants and everyone needs something, and so inorder to attain these things we TRADE, using money is similar to trading. Diamonds are of great value because they are very rare, and are one of the most hardest solids on earth, therefore it's great value, material value that is...
In this day and age material wealth seems to be more important than the moral values (honesty, love, trust)one may have. And this maybe so because in society too much empahsis is placed on the need to have the latest gadgets and gismos, clothes, etc etc and other material things, esp through media, an another reason maybe be due to the lack of moral values and its importance, taught at home and in school.

I think these material objects only have the meaning and value that we attribute to them. We as a world need to re-evaluate what we value. We all need to share more, accept less, appreciate more. We as a people need to start respecting each other, the planet, and nature. We are a part of a system that is larger than ourselves. We need to respect that.
Money dont make you rich....

its a material world. money can buy material things. for some instances, it can buy someone Else's dreams and desires. humans as we are, we find fulfillment in the things this world have. money is not a sinful. but when you worship it, that's when it becomes sinful and some people succumb into the path of evil.
