摘要：Quite a few politicians use pseudo-biblical values to justify their political agenda. The authors feel that many of their values are indeed biblical; they represent core values of ancient empires that have disappeared. If the United States wants to continue as a superpower, it should heed the words of the Bible. This means that concern for the welfare of the stranger, compassion for the helpless members of society, consideration for workers who have lost their homes, jobs, and savings have to be paramount. It may have taken “brimstone and fire” to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah; but America can be destroyed by greed, selfishness, inequality and injustice. Note how much damage was done to the United States and the world economy by the Great Recession of 2008.
