Money does solve many problems.

When in an idealist frame of mind people are willing to overlook it, but it opens doors and the lack of it closes doors.

What's an idealistic frame of mind?

Given you are a slave of God, a restricted life is the default... unless you believe man was born free....

Ah but when you say default it should happen automatically and I wouldn't even consider the situation but man was most definitely born with the freedom of choice and every man is spoilt for choice!

So? Now what? Please don't say "that's the test"

For the believer that's the default - being born free is not the same as having some free choices; the former conveys absolute freedom, the latter relative freedom. Even a slave has some choices but one would not term him free!
