We Got Ratings. It Isn't That They

We Are A Country Of Excess. So It's Not The Violence, Per Se, But The Exacerbation And Constant Repetition.

I Think That Of Most Leaders In Religion As Power Brokers. They Give Orders, In A Sense, To An Audience Every Week, And That's Where The Definition Of God Starts.

... For All Our Alarm, It Is Clear That The Religious Right Is Responding To A Real Hunger In Our Society... A Deep-seated Yearning For Stable Values... When Conservative Christian Groups Talk Of Failures In Our Educational System, The Erosion Of Our Moral Standards, And The Waste Of Young Lives, They Are Addressing Real And Legitimate Concerns... Among Secularists, The Aversion Toward Discussion Of Moral Values, Let Alone Religion, Can Reach Absurd Extremes.

We Got Ratings. It Isn't That They Won't Quarrel With You, Or Say You're Always Right. But As Long As You Stay Strong And The Ratings Are Good And You're Reasonable - I Don't Think We Fought Unreasonably. We Basically Won That Right.

I Think Americans Have Become A - Much More A Nation Of Consumers Than Citizens.
