Default Re: The Root of All Evil?

Interesting. What you're really questioning is the use of the word "ALL" as the scripture utilizes it. I understand your arguement; however, I believe that Jesus was directing attention to the fact that MANY conflicts in which you have named "sexual matters" including rape and incest, can be specifically linked to coveting material posessions. Which, again, he is stressing cannot be placed above faith. This is the root of ALL evil...now, this is up for debate
