In a religious context…(which this Forum is)…“greed” is translated as “covetousness” which is outlawed by 3 of the 10 Commandments.

Similiarly, “lust” is outlawed by Jesus…which explains your lop-sided poll result. The only real question your poll induces is…Can a marriage lawfully include lust?

Think about it, is greed & lust always bad? Or is there a benevolent reason why greed & lust remains to be an inherent human trait?
