I disagree with satan being listed as an option as not all people believe that there is a satan.
I believe the root of all evil is greed, as evil will exist even if money did not.

I disagree with the options listed.
Cognitive thought is the root of all evil.
For proof just look at the animal kingdom. Do you see evil in any species without cognitive thought?

FREE WILL is the root of all evil. THIS is what causes us so much trouble.
We can CHOOSE - religion or not, money or living on the street, BAD decisions that cause pain, not to share and hoard everything.

I disagree with the question because you assume there is only one source of evil. Why not many sources??

From the choices given I'll say greed...insatiable need to acquire more...property, money, etc.
However, even greed may be reduce to Selfish Pride/Arrogance...the root of all evil.
