    Humans have always worshiped what they desire in the form of another "better" example of a human.  Sometimes it is genius, sometimes it is great strength, sometimes it is MONEY.

    Nowadays people seem to think that money is the symbol for anything to do with greatness and power and intelligence.  How very sad.

    I think this has happened since the dawn of time. The greek philosophers were very respected back in their age.
