Mammon
«Catholics are necessarily at war with this age. That we are not more conscious of the fact, that we so often endeavor to make an impossible peace with it -- that is the tragedy. You cannot serve God and Mammon.»
«But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness! / No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.»
«MAMMON, n. The god of the world's leading religion. The chief temple is in the holy city of New York.He swore that all other religions were gammon, And wore out his knees in the worship of Mammon. --Jared Oopf»
