AVARICE pronunciation • (IPA): /ˈævəɹɪs/
noun (uncountable) • Excessive or inordinate desire of gain; greediness after wealth; covetousness; cupidity. • Inordinate desire for some supposed good. synonyms • avariciousness Avarice Strange word.. I am wondering how many times I have read that word without actually knowing the meaning.. today I looked it up.. and it is about time. (excuse: no dictionary), but that is one that is no longer valid. I have one in my smartphone to help me with my spelling. Avarice as a word actually describes the world I live in and helped create. 'In what I have done and what I have failed to do!' if nothing else look up the meaning of a word I didn't understand, pretending that I knew and understood what was being said. The world or reality in which I live is a world filled with avarice to which I must plead guilty of contributing to its creation. I just purchased a new smartphone for the simple reason I wanted a new phone to fulfill my greed.. I easily found reasons to justify my personal greed. Avarice is consuming our western christian culture. while claiming to be believers and followers of the great teacher Jesus.. as I justify my separation greed and need for things that tend to separate me from truly following the spiritual truths I have found and claim to hold dear. Has anyone found my sign that reads "REPENT!"? I seemed to have lost it. ah -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups ""Minds Eye"" group.
