Timeless Wisdom with Dennis Prager

There are a lot of morally confused people. If you can’t discern the clear moral difference between Israel and Hamas, you are one of those people… A leader in the 60’s Civil Rights movement would not be comfortable with today’s identity politics… The most important subject to study is history.  Miguel Cardona, the Secretary of Education, gets a famous Ronald Reagan quote completely backwards… Imams preach hate of UK mosques… Is Israel in an impossible position re: winning its war against Hamas.  Liberal Jews have long believed that the more secular America became the more secure they would be. This was a terrible mistake. Dennis explains. Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

They discuss an auto debacle Dennis had in Minnesota regarding leaving a note.  Which leads to Julie sharing that her dad’s check was stolen from the mail.  Crime appears to be on the rise, and there is more sympathy for the criminal than ever… is this social justice… a consequence of secular society?  While explaining why he left a note… Dennis asks… which is better… doing the right thing for the sake of it, or because one believes that God is judging?  If there are no rewards and punishments …morality in society is dead.  Does dignity keep good individuals from doing bad things?  There is a crisis of religion in the US… people who grew up with religion keep the values but lose the religion.  Dennis recalls his visit to death row at Angola State Prison.  There is an antidote to evil… Judeo-Christian values.Music: Straight to the Point c 2022Richard Friedman Music Publishing 100%Richard Friedman Writers 100%ASCAP (PRO)IPI128741568RichardFriedmanMusic.com Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

Texas AG, Ken Paxton, is joining him… There is no indication that Palestinians want peace with Israel. Recent polls confirm this.  Dennis talks to Dennis talks to his friend and fellow talk radio host, Larry Elder.

Dennis and Julie discuss getting rid of social media in one’s life.  Social media has its benefits… does it facilitate goodness?  Are you living or posting… or both?  We are more connected than ever… yet loneliness levels continue to rise.  Dennis recommends Julie read The True Believer by Eric Hoffer.  NYT’s columnist David Brooks wrote a piece in Atlantic about the moral crisis in the country… Dennis reacts …it’s important to read the other side.  Quit assuaging your loneliness in politics.  Truth is everything… we have one life to live… it cannot be based in make believe.

The charge that Elon Musk is an antisemite is ridiculous. It’s made by leftists to smear the multi-billionaire. The reason why the left hates him is because he has made X a platform for free speech. They can’t forgive him for that… High school students in Brooklyn march and shout antisemitic slogans... America first should not mean America only.  Dennis continues the theme with which he ended the first hour. America first should not mean America only. Unfortunately, to many conservatives it does. This is wrong and counter-productive. Dennis explains… A high school in northern California flies a Palestinian flag.  Dennis talks to Judith Curry, former chair of the School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the Georgia Institute of Technology.
