That's basically the Judeo-Christian admonition against GREED.
Its fairly obvious that that particular commandment isn't commonly respected in this society or for that matter in many (any?) others.
Hell we have people here who think GREED IS GOOD who also call themselves Christians.
You shall not covet your neighbors house; you shall not covet your neighbors wife, or his male servant, or his female servant, or his ox, or his donkey, or anything that is your neighbors.
LOL......everybody in America has been trying to outdo the family down the street all my life! 'Course I'm just 78.
“You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his male servant, or his female servant, or his ox, or his donkey, or anything that is your neighbor’s.”

Apples and oranges.
Wanting to succeed in business, wanting to earn a living by your own worth, value, and hard work has nothing at all to do with covetousness.
Wanting to succeed doesn't mean wanting what your neighbor has.

Nothing.
Fail.
That's basically the Judeo-Christian admonition against GREED.
Its fairly obvious that that particular commandment isn't commonly respected in this society or for that matter in many (any?) others.
Hell we have people here who think GREED IS GOOD who also call themselves Christians.
Oh I called myself a Christian from the early days of my life until I was over 60 years old. I began reading about all religions while I was still in high school. I was baptized before a congregation of more than 900 on a Sunday morning in 1957. I had most of the new testament memorized chapter and verse while I was still in my twenties. I worked in the church more than 90% of the members and we tithed our gross during all those years. After teaching adult Sunday school, being in the brotherhood, visiting the sick, working with our youth, serving on the building committee, giving testimony in nearby towns, conducting retreats, substituting for ushers, etc. I gave it up. I never believed a one of all those undocumented miracles and on Sunday mornings I used to look around the sanctuary and wonder how many others doubted the way I did. Brainwashing of infants and small children is the only thing which has kept that malarky alive for 2000 years and thanks to social media the young people are dropping it by the millions.

Hell....after years and hundreds of posts they banned ol' Cammpbell. A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do. You know what? I've been in no less than 50-60 boards or forums since 1994. I'm accustomed to being banned.
