The famous cliche says money is the root of all money, but what do YOU think?

Answer 1

Technology

Answer 2

Greed, power money. But they are just the bullets that are shot from the existing desire to obtain these things. The fact is even if there was no money, the people that wanted control will find some way of doing it.

So its more humanity if anything. Saying that though there are humans who have done great things?

So our greatest evil is also our greatest ally?

Answer 3

The LOVE of money is the root of all evil, not money itself> IT is greed , corruption and power that comes from having money usually. Money can be used to do good things and work for the Lord. But when you only want money that is not for God, it wlll lead to ruin. eventually, if not sooner.
Great question.

Answer 4

The root of all evil is selfishness and/or self-centeredness. Evil can grow in a ghetto or in a mansion, so money is not necessary.

Answer 5

You can't love God AND mammon (money)!
This might explain the verse that SAYS that the love of money is the root of all evil. Ya think?

Answer 6

That the love (greed) of money is the root of all evil. I think it will be the downfall of the US.

Answer 7

NO - the cliche is NOT correct.
It never said that MONEY is the root of evil

It is "The LOVE OF MONEY" that is the root of evil.

Answer 8

there are tiny little micro-organisms that, at birth immediatly rush in and nest deep in your spinal cortex. at random (or in some cases all) times these micro-organisms trigger neural synapses specifically pinpointed twords the 'lucifer-ean region'. this then causes your subconcious to act in a 'devilish' or 'evil' manner, be it lying, stealing, or any un-moral act. thankfully though (or un-thankfully) there is one cure. Some refer this cure as 'brain freeze'. whenever a cold substance is eaten at a high rate of consumption, a 'pain' or 'freezing' feeling is felt. this is the tiny micro-organisms slowly dying. the more that this 'extermination' process is done, the more 'good' you will become. (unless you are eating fudge-pops. the cacao in fudge-pops is unstable as it can pass through any normal digestive processes and actually fuel the micro organisms.

hope this helps.

(the CDC refuses to acknowlege that these micro-organisms exist)
