Money Is The Root Of All Evil

[Anonymouse]

No it isn't. I'm tired of having to here this crap over and over. People constantly blame money as being evil. People blame guns as being bad, and death is evil. People are phucking idiots. Why is money evil? I am still waiting for a good reason. Of course, there is no evil in money but what man makes. Money can be used for benevolent purposes with good ends in sight, it can also be used in ways that are injurious to our spiritual well being. The reason I brought this up was because I had the unfortunate exposure to the wisdom of a certain rap song that proclaimed this, and how I wish the rapper was in front of me for me to be able to choke him, but not before I shoved some money in his ass and pulled it out of his mouth.

They say that because of the things that people do to get money. It's really greed.
If there wasn't money people would still do evil for goods.

Precisely. The flaw is in that stupid overly used phrase called "human nature" ( sorry I just hate that phrase ). People like using that phrase and attributing flaws to this little phrase because it's such a genius thing to say. When you wanna sound wise and with piercing wisdom, you can always lay back on the fact that you can always impress people by saying how much evil "human nature" is. Even idiots that smoke weed every day ( I used to only smoke it once a week ) and worked at BJ's in Burbank with me who were actors and musicians waiting to "make it big', loved using this phrase.

I hate that too. It's much easier that taking responsibility for actions.

Oh my god, like, people can't take responsibility for their actions because of "human nature". Also, people not aways tend to flush the toilet after a constipated bowel movement, also because of 'human nature". And people will again idiotically buy Super Lotto, because of "human nature". My guess is, if we get rid of human nature, alot of problems will be solved. OMG IM SO WISE!

Money is not a problem, but it causes "people" to cause problems..haha.. for example, someone robs your bank account, everything you had saved and here is nothing authorities can do about it, you know who it is and sometime in thefuture you come face to face with him in a boxing ring... (ok a little farfetched, but work with me here),, would you not beat him to death? AHH!!! i bet you would.. thus, money has created evil.. the key ingridient is not money though, its "people" call it human nature call it animal instinct, or whatever the heck you want.. it is the individual that causes problems, whhich is the main factor of why a utopian world cannot exist.. im sur eyou know this very well though..

They say the LOVE of money is the root to all evil


My only comment towards this is the governments and their lust of money, they have millions and most of it they put in towards making wepons for war. Stupid people, they should be putting it towards more meaningful causes.

So you are saying that it is in your nature to steal? That it's an innate tendency? Thus, the individual who steals is not at fault because it was the vile nature of people and his uncontrallable inherent urges to steal, murder, or what have you is the cause?

It's not the money, as even you said, it's still the human that wills to act that way.
