Roy Peter Clark shows he doesn't like Lehrer at all and doubts about his previous work, but in this case he compares Lehrer with a minister that pours water on the head of an infant and speaks the right words. He says that when this happens, the child is baptized and that it doesn't matter the moral condition of the minister. He compare Lehrer like this because he tells that he bought the author's Imagine and that he actually liked it and found it helpful, despite his doubtful work as a writer.
Answer:
HONESTY for sure.
Explanation:
Being honest makes the greatest impression on those around you- much greater than if you were popular, good-looking, or had good grades. When you are honest, you will have true friends. It is still completely okay to be popular, look good, and have good grades. However, if these things become your greatest focus- over being honest- it is not okay. Being an honest person shows true character.
I hope that answers your question.
