KunstlerCast #19: Wishful Thinking
Jiminy Cricket, Cargo Cults, Prayer & Other Ways to Get Something for Nothing
Released: June 19, 2008.
Religious activists are praying at Washington DC gas stations for cheaper fuel. James Howard Kunstler says that type of neurotic behavior isn't much different than the behavior of cargo cults in the South Pacific. The concept of getting something for nothing is widely accepted by American culture, and religion, too. But Jim feels spirituality in America might one day evolve into something worthy of more respect than the Jiminy Cricket, consumerist culture of today's suburban mega churches.
