Well, just think about it. There are so many people who are willing to do anything for money. Illegal or not. This is why I believe that money IS the root of all evil. (GREED)

No, if you read the actual verse in 1 Timothy 6:10 it says "For the love of money is the root of all evil". So it's not money, it's the LOVE of money.

The love of money is the root of all evil. But, in my opinion, pride is the root of the love of money.

It is NOT true!
It is the LOVE of money that is the root of all evil.

No, it's the "love" of money that is the root of all evil.

Paul said "The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil".
Money can be used without being creepy with it.

This is a misunderstanding of what 1 Timothy 6:10 (New Testament) says:
"The LOVE of money is the root of all evil."
A better identification of the source of all evil is found in the gnostic Coptic gospel of Philip, saying 134:
Coptic: tmntatcooun ecSoop mmaau nnpeqoou tyrf
English: "IGNORANCE is the mother of all evil."
