| I found this old recording of the Andrew's sisters on Youtube recently and thought it very apt in these financially precarious times. 'Money is the Root of all Evil!' Don't know how to post the link but maybe Admin can??? Pretty please. |

| Yes that's the one and I just thought it so apt so I looked for it on Youtube which is brilliant. Found it easily and several other recordings. Glad you thought so too Sallyann - I expect the Andrews Sisters were before your time but I remember it because I am so old. Olduns are best eh??

| Yes we all say ‘money is the root of all evil,’ but the actual quote come from the bible, Timothy 6:10 (King James Version): and says, ‘For the love of money is the root of all evil.’
Patricia Marie (" Patty" ) Andrews, is the only sister still living and will be 94 tomorrow the 16th Feb 2012.
Happy birthday Patty, I’ve enjoyed your records over the years. |

| Thank you for that Silky. I truly to believe that the love of money (greed?) is the root of all evil. Money itself is, of course, important but it should not rule a life. This I think is the Bible message. Happy birthday to Patti. |

| I think that the money is root to all evil saying has a lot more in common with Christianity then any other religion. Money the root to all evil? Yes I say it is. Without money we still be depending on cultivating land and trading fairly but money gives us the opportunity to take a promised owed value and this is what triggers off entrepreneurial activity. Does this modern life style give us happiness? Or does it give is us false security and temporary high with destructive consequences and great opportunity for people to screw us. As Greek philosophers said humans are happiest when... they are .. one with nature. |
