This books shows that America's basic problem is not political but spiritual. America is dying because few ask why? Why are tax dollars used to pay the agitators and extremists who start big city riots? or Why did the Supreme Court open America's public schools to communist teachers while banning prayer and Bible reading? and other questions.
