I guess you understood what you wrote about rendering ceasar but what has that got to do with Naomi Campbell? People who qoute the bible lack the intelligence to think on their own . I give you a clue the bible was written by men not god and those men had an agenda that was nothing nice. there is more truth in the NY times than in the bible . Take some community college classes dont be a Lemming, remember Jonestown .

one more time money is not evil the way PEOPLE use it can be is evil, the things PEOPLE do to get it can be evil. Come on we learned this in elementary . money or some form of barter is necessary.

The emphasis is not that money is evil. Render unto ceasar what is ceasar and render unto God what is God. The point is loving money to 'barter' in this 'commerce' at any cost.

Beauty is only skin deep. What about her personaliity. She is always abusing some one, she doen't behave in public, and she thinks that she is more than she actually is. I see no beauty in Naomi, she's just make-up, and a weave. There ars so many other black female celebs who know how to act like ladies. She needs to set an example for our youth. She aint all that. She aint even a bag of chips. Naomi, the way you conduct, and carry yourself makes you very ugly. Ulgy is as ulgy does.

In one of the previous articles I read about Ms. Campbell I saw where her supposedly friend Mia Farrow told the news media that Naomi told her about the blood diamond and how she even got it. Well I just want to say this; no matter if Ms. Campbell is wrong or right in having possession of the diamond or not; if she thought at any point in time that this white woman Mia Farrow was ever her friend I truly do hope that she has learned her lesson about spouting off her mouth to her so-called friend okay. Naomi people today are not your friends, they may be your acquaintances or your associates but for the most part people are not your friends. I have people I talk with and too, but I never ever consider any of those people my "Friends." And this lady was a white woman, another woman whether white or black or whatever, she was still another woman and she was or ever will be happy for you. So it pays all of us men and women to be careful how we share things with others, especially when it comes to matters where you attain something they cannot or is hard for them to attain. Even things which they can attain, some people just have a jealous steak in them and all ways will. So we have to be so very careful how we share our elations and joyfulness with others. Case-in-point, I received two gift cards from Wal Mart the other day and my neighbor got jealous of two Wal Mart gift cards I received that only amounted to fifteen dollars okay. So now you know if a little thing like a Wal Mart gift card caused jealousy to rise up in her over that, then Ms. Campbell please understand that some people are just jealous and that is all there is to it. So hopefull all of us will restrain from sharing our joyful moments with others who we know are not in our best interest as far as us acquiring things. May God bless and save all who are concerned. Thank you.
