It is true that traditional Christianity is losing some of its appeal among Americans, but that is a religious, not political, matter.

#quotes #johnny-hunt #christianity

A world of few choices, whether in jeans or mates, is a world in which individual differences become sources of alienation, unhappiness, even self-loathing. If no jeans fit, you'll feel uncomfortable or inferior. If no housing developments reflect your taste for unique architecture, you'll write screeds against philistine mass culture. ~Virginia Postrel
