Dismantling of a culture

Dismantling of a Culture - Interview - National Review Online
GELERNTER: American culture had its throat slit and bled to death at our feet.
Isn’t that revolutionary enough?
The blood is only metaphorical, but to the 40 percent of [all] infants [who are] born to single mothers this year, the consequences will be real.
In a piddling few decades, the world’s most powerful, influential cultural establishment happened to get demolished and rebuilt from the ground up.
What had been basically a Christian, patriotic, family-loving, politically moderate part of society became contemptuous of biblical religion, of patriotism, of the family, of American greatness.
The American cultural elite used to resemble (more or less) the rest of America.
Today it disdains the rest of America.
That’s a revolution.
