Sure, if world peace is evil.

By the way, you might want to read up on Wikipedia on that phrase,
where it will undoubtedly tell you that it is "the *lust* for money
that is the root of all evil".  Not money itself.

It's like democracy.  Democracy is an empty shell you put political ideas into.

Similar with money; they have no spirit or faith in themselves, it is
what we make of them; if it is evil, then so be it, if it is good,
well, we can do that too.

Unless - of course - you really do think that money is evil, then I
will acknowledge Anthony's comment, and send the remainder my way.
