Seekers or Snackers?:

"I'm aware of the stats saying 82% of Americans are on a spiritual quest, but after all these years wouldn’t some of them find something? If 82% are on a quest that would include a lot of fundamentalist and evangelical Christians who say they have found the answer! One guy calls Americans “spiritual snackers” not seekers. Book sales are a commercial indication not a spiritual barometer. Marketing not the search for meaning can explain a lot. What kind of people buy 12 books at twenty dollars to learn that Jesus returns in the end, when you can buy one book (The Bible) for twenty dollars and find out the same thing? We live in a society that buys books titled “rescuing the emotional lives of overweight children” instead of helping the kid exercise and eat properly." Dick Staub

I say amen to that!
