American culture Quote by Gale Heide

“It is fairly commonplace now to admit that our American culture is centered around the self. We believe in the supremacy of self-interest to such an extent that all else is subjected to the question of personal gain. “What’s in it for me?” is the measure of value placed on options posed to us…” quote by Gale Heide

““It is fairly commonplace now to admit that our American culture is centered around the self. We believe in the supremacy of self-interest to such an extent that all else is subjected to the question of personal gain. “What’s in it for me?” is the measure of value placed on options posed to us. Even when we read the Bible, we read it as though God exists to cater to our every whim. We believe our personal destiny (i.e., salvation) is the central focus of Scripture. Such is the extent of our heresy.””
