MONEY AND HELL: the connection

People view money as a necessary element in one’s life. We all need money for us to survive and get all the basic necessities of life.

But who invented money and why he / she did (because it may have been a woman that influenced her husband cause then women voices were irrelevant) think that there was a great need for a medium of exchange.

I personally think that it was greed that led to the invention of money.  My research led me to believe that trade by barter was what was in vogue before money came around, now why I said greed is because, consider my theory…

The man that plants yam and has to carry large lads to the market to exchange goods with a man that sells walnuts, so the yam seller would feel cheated despite all the hard work he has done, he now needs walnuts and he has to go to the walnut man’s farm with large tubers for small pieces of walnut.

So let’s assume my theory is right or wrong, that doesn’t matter, because a musician once said…”too much money ain’t enough money” the rich never get enough money and the poor never get enough either, so there is the great rush for the money.

Someone was said ‘money isn’t everything’ another answered by saying ‘make some first before you start saying crap’. I noticed something, a lot of people are not content with what they have physically and forget the spiritual, while some don’t have enough physically they turn to the spiritual to look for blessings. Here they are exploited too by some spiritualists who are in the business looking for money, and are ready to swindle people who will believe their lies.

The politicians kill themselves for the power and the money, because when you have money you have power. Some people would kill just for enough money to eat, girls prostitute for money, people lie for money, and people cheat for money. Most of the crimes in the world today can be linked with money. Sin is the ultimate route to hell.

The love of money is the root of evil I believe that ‘lack of contentment is the root of all evil’. We humans not only have to be content but we have to be able to love each other enough to share what we have.

The question to ask is what happens to all the money when we are in the grave?
