"Deliver us from evil."
Today, in everyday society there are many sins that we need to be delivered from. One of the greatest sins in our society is greed, especially. Greed is one of the seven deadly sins and everyone experiences greed in their life time. Greed is defined as a selfish and excessive desire for more of something (as money) than is needed. As previously stated money is one of the most common things that society greeds for. Many people and businesses keep their money instead of donating a portion of it to the sick or poor. They do this because, even if they are one of the richest people in the world, they feel that they never have enough money. People also lie and cheat to gain more money and they don't care who they hurt in their quest for money. Another major thing that people greed for is power. Once again many people do not care who gets hurt in their quest for power and are willing to do anything to gain power, even commit illegal crimes. Greed is one of the worst sins in our society and it is a sin that will never fully be extinct.
