I'll prove it.

Ignorance takes time and money. We can write that as...

Ignorance = time * money

Time is money, so...

Ignorance = money * money = money^2

Also, money is the root of all evil, therefore...

Ignorance = [sqrt(evil)]^2

Ignorance = evil

Ignorance is evil.

Now, you could substitute almost anything with ignorance, like work, games, girls (if you are a boy), boys (if you are a girl), church (tithes as money)... practically almost everything is evil, except natural nature, where there is no human control at all.

Your argument is also consistent with the claim that ignorance is the antithesis of evil.

Time is money
t=$

Knowledge is Power
Kn=P

Power = Work done/time

therefore

Knowledge = Work Done / Money

i.e.

Money = Work Done / Knowledge

Therefore as Knowledge Diminishes Money Increases
