From the page: "In many aspects of our national culture we have a "gotcha" mentality -- clearly in politics, but also in personal relationships. Many religious leaders preach "fire and brimstone"rather than forgiveness and tolerance. Businesses conceive of their purpose to "destroy" the competition and produce a profit without regard to consequences."
And also from the page: "We, as a nation, need to find our way to kindness, sharing, tolerance and relaxation. We can afford to reduce our appetite for things and wealth and increase our willingness to enjoy the beauty of life in all its variety.
Some among us must be incarcerated to protect us. But not nearly as many as we presently hold in prison. That we think the way we do is cause for introspection, prayer and meditation. It is not healthy."
This is a look at the culture of the USA. And we realle need to look at ourselves and ask if this is the way we want to be.
