Is the love of money or the love of power the root of all evil?
Hello my fellow steemians!!
I have been thinking hard on this topic since very long and came up with a conclusion i.e, Both are not evil neither love for money nor love for power.
Evil begins when we treat another living being as though it was an object i.e when we lack feeling of humanity for someone. There is no other evil than ourselves. This statement sums up every evil action taken by us for the satisfaction of our greed and security.
When you treat another life like an object, that is evil. Every instance of this is evil whether it is treating a female performer like she is an image on a page or it is killing someone because they had done something wrong. Those are both evil actions. They are evil because someone disregarded the humanity of someone else at some point of time in life.
For Example:
When the Ford Motor Company decided not to recall the Pinto because it was too expensive, that was evil because they allowed people to die over an $11 replacement part. To them those dead people were numbers on a page but for some it was life of their loved ones.
OR
When a terrorist organization sends a suicide bomber out, they are evil. To them that person is nothing more than a bomb, but to his family he could be a son, a husband or even a father.
OR
When a person gets jealous of their partner's friend that is evil. They act like they own their partner and sometimes they perform actions which can have an adverse effect on their own life.
None of us are immune to evil acts, it's just that we slip up regularly. But it is up to us to make a serious effort to reject evil in ourselves as well as in the world around us.

Love You Man..

I have many more topics like this... will try to share soon
please, i am waiting for it..
Interesting thoughts. The Ford pinto analogy was intriguing. It's not uncommon for executives of large corporations to treat their consumers or those they exploit for profit as objects.
Farmers in impoverished countries are one of the examples I know most about.
Yes true. In India as well its same for farmers.
Since you react on your spamming with downvoting my post I reported you to steemcleaners!
Then y did you downvoted me? I just gave u another link to airdrop
Dude you know exactly what you did! You can't just drop referral links under other peoples posts.
It was for you. and there is no chat box on steemit where i can personally text you. So its ok. You downvoted me twice. You will get the same. world works on newton's third law. Equal and opposite reaction.
You really wanna discuss about that? You exactly know that it is not wanted to drop random referral links on other peoples posts. And do not start with it was for me the only reason you dropped is to get referrals since it was a obvious referral link.
haha looks like you do not know how the voting system works then!
Let's just stop discussing now.
Obviously it was a referral link but of some other airdrop not byteball. And it was for you. Anyways people need brain and eyes both to see that. I know how voting system works and you will see it.
Just wanted to learn you a lesson (didn't reported you to steemcleaner so far) but I won't tolerate threats.
I am not afraid as i have not commited any crime. if you din't want it you could have asked me to delete it rather affecting my reputation. As a starter on steemit it takes a lot n u should have understood it. Anyways we can end this right now if u wish to.
You just got what u gave. N still u r upset. 😂
I love this post.
