Reagan during his speech makes valid points on peace and war. He goes back and forth on how the government can not keep the peace because of war‚ and that we can not have peace because the government does not know how to help the people.

Religion and Morals I do not believe that religion has (as an agent of socialization) lessened its influence on the development of one’s morals and values because there are many different cultures that rely on religion today and their parables to teach their children as they grow‚ right from wrong.
