DAVID KUPELIAN'S CULTURE-WAR BESTSELLER IS NOW AVAILABLE IN PAPERBACK!  Millions of Americans today accept ideas and behaviors that would have horrified all previous generations. Why? Why have thousands of years of Judeo-Christian moral standards suddenly been abandoned? What's behind today's divorce epidemic? Why is public prayer being criminalized? Why are 3,000 innocent unborn children aborted daily? In this widely acclaimed exposé, veteran journalist David Kupelian reveals the brilliant marketing strategies that have turned America upside down. "Within the space of our lifetime, much of what Americans once almost universally abhorred has been packaged, perfumed, gift-wrapped, and sold to us as though it had great value. By skillfully playing on our deeply felt national values of fairness, generosity, and tolerance, these marketers have persuaded us to embrace as enlightened and noble that which every other generation has regarded as grossly self-destructive--in a word, evil." … (more)

How did America get to the point where we accept the wholesale murder of the unborn? How did marriage get to be defined as basically any relationship between any two living beings? Why is it that we make excuses for jihadists while vilifying traditional American heroes?

The startling answers to these questions--and more--are set forth in a straightforward manner by David Kupelian in his masterful book The Marketing of Evil. Beginning with the "abortion rights" movement and covering everything from "gay rights" to prayer in public schools, Kupelian demonstrates how the US has been consistently and purposefully fed a line.

Careful not to descend into the lunacy of Illuminati/Scull and Bones/Bilderberger conspiracy theories, the book instead presents a very lucid and well-documented look at how those intent on promoting evil have been allowed to do so under our very noses.

Kupelian also does not sink into the despair or escapism that so easily accompanies a treatise on the decline of Western society. Rather, he suggests ways that those on the side of good can create a counter-culture that will eventually save civilization as we know it.

A very interesting, informative, galvanizing read.
