“Our present culture, however, specializes in inflaming endless lust for possessions with advertisements that constantly convince us that we need more (particularly to create the ease we have never found). The marketers don't tell us much about their products, but they spend a great deal of energy (and enormous amounts of money) appealing to our fears and dreams. Thus, the idolatry of possessions plays to the deeper idolatry of our selves-and in an endlessly consuming society, persons are always remaking themselves with new belongings.” NeedsPersonsSelfPlayDreamCultureFoundEnergyDealsProductsAmountPossessionDeeperLustEndlessEnormousEaseConvinceBelongingConsumerismConsumingIdolatryAdvertisementsOverconsumptionMarketersConvince UsFears And Dreams Author:Marva Dawn
