    phrase is not linked to the giving of money at all but is in actual fact a word of Latin origin.  “Caritas” means dearness and the giving of love based on respect‚ as well as expensiveness (much in the way that we use dear for both senses in the English language).  Thus‚ Charity was the word used in the bible to mean the giving of love‚ which of course‚ should begin at home!  In the Bible‚ another aspect of  love was the giving of  alms to the poor with love and giving existing along side one another

    Satire is defined as the use of humor‚ exaggeration‚ or irony to describe someone. In “The Canterbury Tales” written by Geoffrey Chaucer‚ satire is used often. CHaucer uses satire to describe a Prioress (nun)‚ a Cook‚ and a Friar. Compared to these people today‚ the features Chaucer gives them do not match up.

As said in the gospel of wealth‚ everyone should be able to make as much money as they can‚ but they should give back to the society-
