Money is of no value unless you are spending it on yourself,your friends and loved ones and the causes which are close to your heart........and she certainly does all of that.

Matthew 6 v24

24 "No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.

1 Tim 6 v10:

10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.

Oprah as an example fits into neither verse Coltrane.

Some people just come correct, she's one of them in every shape and form.

Nutin wrong with being rich or wanting to be rich if you can handle it.

The only people who come up with negative condrums which compete money against God are those with no money who also have no belief in God  Thesepeople have usually resigned themselves to a life on the breadline years ago. They usually have other weird conumdrums that suggest things like only people with material possessions have failed relationships or money can't buy you love or happiness- tell me something I don't know motherf%^&%£!:D

In the bible and the Koran, God blessed many people with wealth - indeed as my devout Muslim IT professional colleague/friend said, wealth is a blessing from God. So death to all the playa haters, or better still, give them some money and see if they turn it down.

If wealth is a blessing then thats more reason to question the 'sandle wearer' from above if he ever does return. My question amongst many would be why bless some with wealth and not others who arguebly deserve it more.... like me for instance.

Hey Le Moor, I've seen some of those preachers on the Gospel Channel, loaded to the hilt:D. Wealth is good if you are not selfish. whether that dictates who has it and who has not is another argument:D

Look wealth is there to be had... if a black woman has it and turns it around in Africa then I have nothing but luv for the lady... I am not one of these anti-Oprah type of people... she has done well, dispite how she got it... and she does a hell of alot for some countries in Africa... so all is well.

At least she puts alot of her money in her people unlike alot of the greedy leaders over there that pocket the lot for themselves.

Go Oprah!!!!banana.gif
