Our Endangered Values

America's Moral Crisis
Book • 2005
In 'Our Endangered Values: America's Moral Crisis,' Jimmy Carter explores the ongoing conflicts in modern American society and politics, particularly the role of Christian fundamentalism in shaping policies and driving division.

He addresses key issues such as church and state relations, gender equality, environmental protection, social justice, and foreign policy.

Carter argues for the separation of church and state and warns about the consequences of fundamentalist influence on government, which he believes threatens democracy and progress.

The book also touches on poverty, economic policies, and the need for individuals to act in concert to restore America's moral foundation and global reputation.
