Ever heard of the saying “For the love of money is the root of all evil?” Well, logic would dictate that if the love of money is the root of all evil, then it stands to reason that the hatred of money is the root of all good. Sounds absurd, right? Well, that’s because it is. How can an inanimate object such as paper (dollar bills) when loved by people be the root of all evil? Money is amoral, neither moral nor immoral. In our society, money physically is paper bills or dollar bills. These bills represent energy; energy in the form of belief and this belief is what gives the paper bills their value. Even if our paper bills (Federal Reserve Notes) were still backed by gold and silver the value wouldn’t really be in these two tangible substances because these substances also only have value based upon people’s individual and collective belief. All value is based upon perception and because perception can be manipulated, so can the value of things. Because perception changes, so does the value in things. “He who controls perception, controls value.”

Now, I would beg to differ that it is love of money that is the root of all evil and instead is GREED as the root of all evil. That’s right, greed!

Greed is a result of not trusting in Universal abundance, prosperity, and affluence - believing that there is not more of a particular thing.

A greedy person acts as if when they receive something, they won’t receive anymore of it. They fear more of what may not come in addition to fearing losing what they already have. So they want more and more but many times when this happens, one is sure to lose everything he has in the end. It doesn’t happen all the time, but it happens enough. Greed has robbed many a man (and woman) of everything. They lose everything trying to get more. It’s like that Debbie Harry (Blondie) song with the lyrics: More, More, More! But if one is not careful, intense and selfish desire can make a person lose everything.
