What is the root of all evil?

Evil's not relevant. For every thing it clarifies, it muddies two.

William Burroughs states in the book Naked Lunch that the "root of all evil" is total need. He went on to say that heroin junkies are in total need of junk and will do anything to get their hands on it. This seems to make logical sense to me.

I think you dropped the ball on this one bisonbison. Surely you can't say evil isn't relevant to all those who died on the field of fire and honor and in concentration camps.
