How the world has changed...

Today, I believe the American society is focused (or believe are the most important) on the aspects of money, technology, medicine, media, religion, and law. Compared to Dr. Fautus's interpretation of what is important, I feel society today is not as focused on religion, and magic is only a form of entertainment, nothing more. The reason for this decline in religion is because of the advances in science and technology that have enhanched our ability to acquire knowledge. In addition, I feel money and technology run our lives; we are constantly wanting a new computer or ipod, while also many are struggling to make ends meet. Overall, the world differs today from back then because of the emphasis on money, technology, and medicine.
