Firstly I will get the joke out of the way in answering that said question. What runs this world? Greed & Homosexuality.
Whilst the homosexual reference can be a tad extreme in some circumstances the greed one isn't so.
If you seriously think about it the root of all evil is money and people become obessed over it to the point where they are willing to do whatever it takes to gain a fortune.
With money comes power and with power comes money. The two are binded together tightly one never becoming more important than the other. You cannont have have one without the other or so people believe.
We need to stop thinking like crazed driven monsters who just want everything they can't have.
You see some men can't be beaten, bullied, bribed or reasoned with some men just want to watch the world burn. I envy those people hecause they don't have anything holding them back they are free to do as they feel without worrying about what society truly thinks of them.
We need to stop be running by other people, by our greed we need to follow ourselves. No one else knows how it is to live our life, no one knows how it is to walk a mile in our shoes so no one can pass judgement on what we do.
We all need to remmeber that.
I will disagree with your statement.
The problem is not greedy or just money.
It comes down to a serious LACK of self-responsibility.
Nothing more.
well i appreciate your feedback and will take into considerationf or future reference.
It is lack of self responsibilty since we are not willing to look at what we are doing but much rather concentrating on the faults of others.
Before we can solve any of the worlds problems we need to solve our own individual ones

What word comes to mind when you think of the word "money"?

That's the typical Sam Harris argument. How does suffering negate God's existence? Maybe He's just watching. It doesn't mean He doesn't exist and for anyone to bring up suffering as proof of no God is indication of a logical fallacy.

Faith and trust in God are like the two elements of water - hydrogen and oxygen - you can't have water without both of them together. You can't be a Christian without having faith and trust together. Many people say they have faith in God, but then when life gets tough they lose...
