The Evidence[edit]

In the religious tradition, money, the love of money, and the impact of this love on the life of family, community, and world, are implied by proclamation of venerated historical leaders in the religious tradition. Beautiful and valuable relationships with nature, other people, and even beliefs have both a bright side and harmful side when out of balance.

For followers who accept both traditional teaching of the venerated leaders and modern popular interpretations of the term "Love of money" with all it connotes, evidence and even a clear definition are not relevant. For others who demand evidence the veneration of sayings of leaders is considered bowing down to abject authority. The interpretation and application of the phrase "love of money" is dependent upon level of evidence required.
