abstract America's peculiar form of religious and moral consensus is needed. America's position demands that it act with unity and conviction. The transformation of people through this moral consensus has been undermined by the single-issue lobby, which empowers a kind of American "neopaganism" (i.e. attributing god-like powers to unworthy things). The spread of the single-issue lobby is peculiarly destructive of America's unity.
notes Bahá'í Faith referred to as one of "the old imperial religions."
