This Culture of greed is engaged in a War against the Family.
This culture is deeply opposed to the very values that make
families work:
This culture keeps working men and women too busy for family
life
This culture keeps many working families too poor to supply
the bare necessities of food, of health care, of clothing
and medication, of time for connection and love.
This culture bombards families with toxic “entertainment”
leading to cynicism and addiction to fear and violence.
This culture pushes toxins like mercury, lead, and fast
foods creating epidemics of asthma, obesity, diabetes, learning
disabilities and autism in our children.
This culture creates stress which denies families the opportunity
for the connection, the sense of community, the opportunities
for peace and love that are the birthright of all human
beings.
The culture of greed buys off our politicians. It opposes
all efforts to protect family life from its destructive
influence.
This culture is at war with the very essence of family
life. This is sin! This must be denounced and fought in
our churches, and above all, in our legislatures.
We are engaged in a fight for our lives. We must join together
to oppose the trillion dollar machine that is seeking to
enslave us.
We must join in an effort to restore love, community, and
soul to our lives and those of our children. We must create
safe harbors to protect ourselves and those we love.
