Temptation doesn't lead to greed. Greed is second-nature to the flesh... like lust, envy, jealousy. These things naturally rule over the flesh with the desire to sate any and all of the five physical senses of taste, touch, smell, sight and hearing.
So, temptation doesn't LEAD to greed [or envy, or lust, or jealousy]; these things that ARE what we are. Temptation merely FEEDS them.
Greed gives rise to temptation and causes moral values to erode and cause people to only look after themselves. For instance, a politician may take office with the best of intentions. But then, things get tough, and people offer to help him with his career or give him money if he bends the rules a bit or ignores something. Most people are "generally honest," meaning that they don't set out to do wrong, but may cave if the temptation is great enough. There is a saying that locks on doors are only to help keep the honest people honest, and there is truth to that. If a person is determined enough to burglarize, they will, so locks won't stop them. It is the people who are generally "good people" that the locks are designed to keep out. Locks have no effect on the totally pure and the totally dishonest.
Human Greed is that quality of an individual which drives him/her to take more than they need. The person, who knows contentment, eats to live but the greedy person lives to eat. The person who takes more than they need to live comfortably is driven by greed. Greed is a product of selfishness, discontent, hatred and prejudice.
The color that best describes the emotion of greed is usually associated with shades of green. Green can symbolize greed because it is often associated with money and material wealth.
greed is a condition in a proportion of humans. Many humans are not greedy at all as can be seen from the the contributions made by people poor and rich to their community's those in need and their family's and friends.
