Money is the Root of all Evil?

<< < (5/5)

Murrow:
What about Religion?

Religion is the reason why there is turmoil in the Middle East; and the reason why the WTC/Pentagon where taken down.  

I don't think there ever will be peace until there is some type of 'one religion' thing.  

Like there is this book that is about a Eutopian society and there is NO religion/God.

ITW [the irish boy]:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I agree with that

I dont think religion is the root of evil, like sumone said, ignorance is.  I mean, like that you can blame music for sumones actions too...  If a hardcore eminem fan, listens to em talk about killing his wife and mom, and he does the same, you cant blame Eminem for it.  nuhmean...

Murrow:
Yeah, I mean; religion isn't the reason for evil - I ment that it is the cause of many conflicts because people disagree with other people's belief's.

Ant:
I don't think there is a root of all evil.  There are certain causes of "evil."  But no definite roots.  I made this post to dispell a common myth that money is the root of evil.  In actuality nothing is the root.

Ignorance may be a greater cause of evil than money.  But how can you blame the unavoidable?  There are certain things I am ignorant to which I am unaware of.  I make bad decisions as a result of this ignorance.  Perhaps even "evil" decisions.  But there is a cause for my ignorance, just as their is a cause for every other man's ignorance.  The only all knowing being supposedly is God.  

To blame the necesary and unavoidable as a the root of something is silly.  Money is necesary for our survival.  Ignorance is unavoidable.
