The Bible says . . .

Yes, it does. Play this hymn in the background while you’re reading: Holy, holy, holy . . . .

I got an email from a guy I know – okay, it was my sister. And it was about George Will’s net worth, estimated at $3,000,000. (See here.) “That’s just not that much these days,” my sister wrote.
   Yes, it is.  Until one million is worth about one thousand, it is. It will be.
   Go Around Back’s position on wealth is biblical.  1 Timothy 6:10 – “Money is the root of all evil.”
   “Wait,” I can hear my sister saying. “You’re taking that out of context; the entire verse says: For the love of money is the root of all evils.”
   Actually, I’m letting the current context speak for itself. As long as we live enslaved to capitalism as we are, the love of money is the root of everything.
