THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AS SO A PRAIRIE —,
and purpose for the world.
and destroy the future; a United States which criticizes other countries but is itself deeply divided.
A SOCIETY where no man is handicapped by color, race, background or upbringing, all have the chance of full, satisfying life.

Leaders of society and government who betray their trust, and use influence and power to force decadence upon us—bigots who try to persecute those unwilling to compromise or to cover up.
PEACE.
A REVOLUTION OF CHANGE-social, economic, national universal, founded on personal change.
Pacifism, which seems to make war certain. Leaders who cry "peace" but create conditions that lead to war. Philosophers and fools who cry "peace" but train man to live like a beast, and so do him to live like a beast, treat others like beasts, and march the path to slaughterhouse or zoo.
FULL AND PERMANENT EMPLOYMENT in industry that meets the needs of humanity rather than brimming the pockets of a few while the bellies of many stay void.
Steely selfishness of right, acid bitterness of left which create class war, lock-outs, unofficial strikes and lead inevitably to national bankruptcy and war.
GOD'S STANDARD OF HONESTY that means no skeletons in any closet and a fair day's work for a fair day's wage.
Human "honesty" which publishes other people's shortcomings while covering up its own, tells men to get as much as they can in return for as little as possible.
GOD'S STANDARD OF ABSOLUTE PURITY.
Homosexuality, lesbianism, pornography, adultery, lies which say sin is no longer sin when enough people come to like it. Preoccupation with dirt which robs a nation of sweat and skill and helps to lose its markets.
MARRIAGES THAT LAST because they are a promise, for better, for worse, held sacred by partners and people.
Divorce by consent whether legalized or wangled.
GREAT ART in theater, films, television.
Producers and critics who uplift grime as genius and bar those who stand for decency, faith and honor.
GOD'S STANDARD OF UNSELFISHNESS which means the pursuit of a goal all humanity can accept and share-the remaking of the world based on government by men governed by God.
Human selfishness that elevates "number one" into the national idol, says all who refuse to worship it are squares.
GOD'S STANDARD OF LOVE that cures evil as well as forgiving it.
Human "love" that tells men evil is all right, cannot be cured and so says there is nothing to forgive and that man can manage by himself.
TRUTH.
GOD, CHRIST AS PERSONAL FRIEND AND SAVIOUR, a Church affame with the Holy Spirit.
Lies invented by knaves, endorsed by the experts and swallowed by fools, which separate a nation from moral and spiritual rebirth.
