Pride is the Root

It's very easy to become prideful.  Don't feel bad about it. Just know you have some "self-surgery" to do on your own mind.
The intent of this section is to show you how pride builds up inside of you. Maybe you can identify with multiple sources.

Only one sin

Before the Fall,_Evidence for a Golden_Age (New Dawn Magazine)- Ego Explosion

Billions of people (85%? 90%? 95%+?) on the planet will be wrong. The biggest lesson of all will be that there is only 'ONE SIN' that matters.  PRIDE!
For pride leads to all our darkest negative emotions and therefore all "Evil."

Money is not the root of all evil.
Greed is not the root of all evil.
Religion is not the root of all evil.
