| Well America is a relatively young nation, full of different races, all trying to find this thing called 'america'. confused and hopeful, we search for that thing that is special to american culture, and what do we find?Lost of people looking for salvation from their problems by spending time to acquire things. Seems like instead of say a sun god we worship the Credit Card God, the Dollar God... Before people would probably kneel out of fear of a higher being, now a man can be bought. Not that theres anything wrong with this, its just that we are settling on this land and have yet to fully establish a national diet(say like tacos are to mexicans, what is to americans? Mcdonalds?)
Its like a pond that is struck by a huge boulder... the disturbances on the water take some time to balance out. place time and environment have a lot to do with it
YOUR ancestors used to worship so many different things that would sound absurd to us now. unless you are like native american or mexican or something your family came from elsewhere(even the natives came from elsewhere. |
