Nope. It's only man's pursuit of money that leads to evil. Reprinted

Money is not the root of all evil. The Bible says, "The love of money is
a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith
in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows"
(I Timothy 6:10).
