No, it's not root of any evil. It's a convenient way of doing trade. Problem with money(compared to sacrifice or trading goods for goods), be it paper or numbers on your app or in credit card is that it lacks spiritual value. It doesn't seem real even though it is very real.

The problem is not in money, the problem is in people who use money in the wrong way.

Religion is the root of all evil.

truth

even this week I'm arguing with someone on this subject, many religions are just to manipulate people, pastors of many religions are becoming millionaires, and how these pastors are becoming millionaires? I think you know the answer

Money causes greed and greed brings out the worst in people. There is no money in rape or most murders and they are very evil. Greed is the root of all evil for me. Money is one part of greed, there are many more.

Yes it can not be denied, that money is the most searchable thing in this world. The difficulty of making money is the cause of people to act negatively. They will justify any means to earn money. I advise everyone not to prioritize all our lives to earn money. If you work in a company, then prioritize your duties first, do not think about the salary.

Not taking into account any religions teaching, it is clear that on most occasions the love of money bring the demise of another. Why would one rob a bank? Why kill another person to become rich? And many other things that the love of money pushes you to do and become evil.

You can't blame being 'evil' on money or religion. At the end of the day, a human makes decisions and takes actions based on their own free will. A person deciding to act in an 'evil' manner is the only thing that causes evil.

Also, good an evil are arbitrary human constructs which change depending on where you're standing so... ye ;D

Money is not the root of all evil. it is a current medium of exchange in the form of coins and banknote. But it is the love of money, not money itself, that is a source of all different kinds of trouble and evil. Wealth is morally neutral; there is nothing wrong with money, in and of itself, or the possession of money. However, when money begins to control us, that’s when trouble starts.

NO, money is not the root of evil at all. Yes, it is the problem in people who doesn't have enough of the knowledge about the usage of money. We're not taught about this in school. Most of them doesn't have enough of the experience to use them. Other are just insanely greedy. But that's just problem of morals. I'm talking mostly about the lottery winners. Because like 90% of them become more poor than they used to be and they waste the money insanely fast.

Technically speaking the "LOVE FOR MONEY" is the root of evil not the money itself. Money is just a medium we use to purchase or pay something and that is how it should just be. When someone put money above everything and it became his/her main purpose on doing everything in life then evil thoughts will slowly consume him/her. I believe that what we look to as a source will determine our course so if money is your only priority in life then there will be no room for other good things or thoughts that could help us be more motivated

I don’t blame people if they have a negative view of money. For others who struggle in life, money is thought as the “the root of evil.” A lot of things in this competitive and material-driven world are at fault for this. There’s corruption in the government, huge companies taking advantage of human labor, etc. We can’t blame these people for not having a positive outlook towards money. But in reality, money is good. We need it to get the basics in life.  It’s a means survival in this world. But some say digital currency will help. What do you think?

hmmm i don't think money is really the root of evil. But lacking or being poor is the root of evil. Every lacking person wants to make it in life . Excuse my words but "most" would do anything to make it happen. Someone who has the bucks already and made it in a legit way would never think bad about someone or think about how to make it by going the " i will do anything" way. So does my point. Money ain't root of evil

Money isn’t the root of evil.  Money simply becomes an instrument for those with delinquent views and behaviors. There’s corruption in the government, there are huge companies taking advantage of human labor and then there is politics that seem to affect all aspects of humanity. What is frustrating is that no matter how hard we work or how much honesty and integrity we put into our jobs, the larger framework prohibits us from truly succeeding in life. Do you agree?

Everything could be the root of all evil if misused, and vise versa - remember common satellites, designed for military purpose and transformed in the staple of modern communication.

This is however purely technological point of view. Speaking about money and its ethics - it`s not the money that cause depravity, it`s governments that use this tool to maintain control in any form.

How could you possible misuse a gun? It is made with only one intention in mind - killing others, no matter for just cause or not.

But still I agree with you, some people tend to misuse a lot of things for their own benefit.

The actual proverb, taken from the New Testament, is that the "Love of money is the root of all evil."

I'd say that is pretty accurate. 

Money, like anything else really, is a tool that can be used to help people.  In and of itself, it is neither good nor evil. 

The problem arises when we start putting our desire for money above the love and compassion we should have for our fellow human beings.

I agree with this , religion is the root of all evil , eversince religion causes so much suffering to people and they even kill people for their religion. On the other hand money is also  being called the root of all evil because people do evil deeds just for money. They kill people also just to have money.

Religion is the root of all evil.
Not agreed. I am Muslim and I believe in Allah.

If I would bot believe any religion, I would still say religion is a good way to restrict people from doing some evil. For example, if you spend 10 minutes in prayer, no matter which religion it is, you definitely will try to be fair for that 10 minutes. Therefore, religion keep us away from doing evil.

Just like what the saying money is the root of all evil , and i believe in that saying because money can lead in killing people just to have money in their pockets . We all know that money is important in our daily lives , and we need money to buy our needs in life. It is one of the sources in our life that we all need , money can also be a happiness to a person , those people who have many money in their hands wants more that is why there are people who are corrupts.

I think it is not in the money, but in our human factor. Money is only a means of buying something or something like that. We, the people themselves have appropriated money power, because now everyone is making money. Evil is not in money but in ourselves

I don't think money is the root of all evil, I think there are several causes of evil such as greed, pride, lust, laziness, envy etc. Money is needed to create incentives and motivation for productivity.

you see these posts on social media saying "would you do x to your friend for y amount of dollars"? the answer is almost always yes. with that said I think almost everything has a price. just browse the dark web to see all the things you didn't think money could buy!

Money is neither evil nor good, as money is just a resource. It is people who decide how to manage their resources. Therefore, if you want to blame someone for the troubles, then blame the people and their goals for which they are ready to do anything.

Money is supposed to be a medium of exchange among the people.

The major governments and banks around the world have cleverly set money into a debt system where they can control the value of money.

When people use money, they are using notes. What's a note? It is a piece of paper that says that the amount of the note is owed as a debt. Who is it owed to? The people. Who owes it? The people. Who controls it and rakes in a share off inflation and money creation? The banks.

It is a well-known fact that everything in life has its own price. And money is a reward for our work that allows us to enjoy good things in life. Sure, money cannot buy true friends, real love or happiness, but it can give you a sense of financial security, remove the worry of being unable to feed yourself or fear of losing your house. Moreover, money can also be used to help people who cannot help themselves, for example, people with serious health problems or victims of wars, floods or famine.

My grandfather, a banker in the 70s & 80s, always told me: "Money can't buy happiness, but it can damn well rent it". Don't know if I agree entirely but I will say, the least stressful periods in my life were when my bank account was full.

Money isn't the root of all evil per se BUT the excessive LOVE of money is. That's what the Bible says in 1 Timothy 6:10.

No, money is NOT the root of all evil. Consider...

Gold and silver are real money, not fiat, or even Bitcoin.

Before mercury amalgams in teet, they used gold. And they still use it today in some places around the world, in teet.

So, is gold in teet the root of all evil? I mean, a toot might have a root, but is the gold filling the root of all evil? No! It's only a tool to fill a hole in a toot.

Can gold in teet become the root of all evil for a person who has gold fillings? Possibly. But it would be difficult. So, money (gold) is NOT the root of all evil.


Besides, anybody who says teet and toot rather than teeth and tooth, probably doesn't have any teet.

The love for money is the root of all evil.  Money enabled the whole world to go around and without money it is very difficult for us to be able to live complete life.  If we killed,  cheat, and manipulate because of money then it is the roots of evil but if we used money in a legal way it is a blessing to us.

Money isn't evil. Neither is it the root of evil. The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil, but even the love of money is not the absolute root of all evil.

Often the lack of money is the root of much evil. If you don't have money, and can't get it, but live in a society that requires money to live, you might do the evil of stealing just to live.

Take a look at the following to understand this better:
The 7 Principles of Mindful Wealth

A girl half my age selling organic soap hit me with a sobering truth so insightful, it made me abandon five years of false beliefs and unlock a powerful new philosophy of financial abundance. I'm sharing that breakthrough financial philosophy with you here, but it's only something you'll find valuable if you're ready to let go of false limitations about money and welcome real, lasting change in attracting the money you deserve into your life.

The girl sells soap. Natural soap. It's the best soap I've ever found, and she was selling it at prices so cheap, it might have well been the brand-name chemical soap you buy at the grocery store.

I asked her, "Why are you selling this soap so cheaply? It's worth three times the price..." And in her response, I learned that she didn't really value her soap... or herself. She was selling her soap too cheaply because she didn't feel like she deserved to charge the prices her soap was really worth!

She was limiting her financial abundance by choice. Like many of us, she had unconsciously decided that her contribution to the world (her soap) wasn't worth much, and she had resigned to a life of financial challenges, living from one paycheck to the next, never achieving the real financial independence or wealth she truly deserved.

And yet her soap was among the best natural soaps in the world. Why shouldn't she be at least as wealthy as the executives at Proctor & Gamble who sell junk soap? (This is a good question to ask yourself, too: Don't you deserve more wealth than the corrupt Big Pharma executives who sell drugs that harm children? Of course you do!)

Imagine my shock when she turned the tables on me and asked, "So what about YOU, Health Ranger? I read your website. You've helped a hundreds of companies and millions of readers, but you don't allow yourself to make a dime, either. Why's that?"

Next: Getting past self-imposed limits on wealth...
...

The 7 Principles

For review, here are the 7 Principles of Mindful Wealth, as written by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger:

Principle #1: Most people limit their wealth by choice. (Either consciously or unconsciously.)

Principle #2: Money is not evil. The way money is EARNED and SPENT is good or evil, depending on the ethics applied to it.

Principle #3: Money shall be accumulated (earned) in service of protecting sustainable life. (It shall also be earned ethically, honestly and without deception.)

Principle #4: Money shall be redistributed (spent) in service of protecting sustainable life.

Principle #5: Wealth shall not be hoarded.

Principle #6: Poverty is not pious. You do not gain bonus karma points for living in poverty.

Principle #7: Natural living advocates have a moral obligation to mindfully attract and redistribute vast amounts of wealth, in alignment with their core beliefs, and with full honesty in their methods.

Apply these principles to your own finances, and you will allow enormous wealth to flow to you and through you.

I'm not disregarding anyone's experiences. It just that, it doesn't justify that the money is the cause of evil because money is just a tool or a medium. It is a human construct that we only give value because it is being used in trading. I also have some "not-so-good" experiences in this industry but I never give up. I am still hoping that I still can grow and expand not just my earnings but also my knowledge. Just recently, my friend told me a news about Bitrus (https://to.crwd.cr/z7G) and it gave me more hope when I read it up.
