What sin does Apostle Paul call "the root of all evil"? Why do we allow ourselves to be greedy? Should greed be elevated to a virtue? How can we learn not to become attached to wealth, money, and gold? How can we avoid becoming like the "horned priest" from the legend described by V.G. Korolenko? What quality distinguishes a person with a "big heart"? And can we become godlike?
