The Root of All Evil....
#12
RE: The Root of All Evil....
@ padpriac, despite what is common to assume about me, I don't structure every area of my life around Biblicaldoctrine, It's a common enough secular euphemism that Money s the root of all evil, but I would have to agree that it's not specific enough and if there is absolute good and evil , want for something other than God's will would be the root of all evil, IMO.That would of course include religion as we now see it, tele-evangelism, want of money, avarice, lust, poitics, etc.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
