Timeless Wisdom with Dennis Prager

We begin a new year, but the same problems persist… An NFL player collapses from a heart attack. Weird medical things do happen, but the one question no one will ask is: could this be vax-related?... CA is now a “sanctuary state” for “transing” kids. If you want to trans your kid, get to CA. No one can stop you.  It’s a new year. That means there is a new crop of crazy, destructive California laws… As we lose our connection to God, we don’t forward into some new utopian era, we move backward into a pre-Judeo-Christian paganism… Mask mandates are back at some schools. Does our educational establishment hate children?  America has become an exporter of bad ideas. This is a first in the history of the country. And it’s very disturbingThanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

Dennis and Julie delve into vanity.  Is vanity reserved for appearance, or does it apply to more?  Where is the line drawn between caring about your appearance and being vain… is it generational?  Both Dennis and Julie agree that providing intellectual ammunition to their listeners is their objective.  Dennis recalls Max Prager’s words of wisdom.  When did the phenomenon of torn jeans become popular?  Is dressing up dead?  Do you dress up for church… does God care… what about sporting events and airline travel?  “Splitting,” also called black-and-white thinking or all-or-nothing thinking, is the failure in a person's thinking to bring together the dichotomy of both perceived positive and negative qualities of something into a cohesive, realistic whole.  John 14: 6 – “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

During the Buffalo blizzard a man was trapped in the snow. He needed a place to stay for the night or would freeze to death. He knocked on the doors of ten homes. No one would let him in.

How does one explain the Southwest Airlines debacle last weekend? Is anyone going to get fired? Is it okay to be angry at the airline? Can you judge people by what makes them angry?  2022 was another banner year for race hoaxes on college campuses. How many of these “racial incidents” have ever turned out to be true? Here’s the lesson: there is so little racism in America, you have to make it up.  Should there be another dedicated hour over the course of the week of shows? Now we have three. Should we add a fourth? Callers have suggestions. Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

Dennis is surprised that the Left reacted so sharply to his latest column. He thought the Left would dismiss his view that it's immoral to cut off parents for their political positions. But, in fact, the Left embraced the idea…  The Left shows little, if any, gratitude for the many blessing that come with being an American... Everything the Left accuses the Right of doing is what the Left actually does: cutting off speech, acting in an authoritarian way, being intolerant.  Dennis looks back nine years at a brilliant PragerU video, “Does God Exist? 4 New Arguments,” presented by his late friend, Frank Pastore.

Dennis and Julie delve into fake outrage.  Why has circumstance become more important than values?  Do Julie and Dennis differ on people that think they are good versus actual good people?  We should be values based… not politics based.  The Left’s meanness outweighs the Right’s.  They discuss liking Trump versus liking Biden.  It's oncologist not ophthalmologist.  When will the guilt kick in for shunning family members over politics?  Dennis has observed that in this life evil isn’t punished… foolish decisions are.  Having a strong conscience matters.  Most people have weak consciences… and furthermore without God what good is a conscience?  Dennis recalls the two times he’s asked God for something.  What God wants from you is infinitely more consequential than what you want from God.  Do you know someone suffering from P.T.S.D. - Post Traumatic Santa Disorder… holly jolly and optimistic, Santa is needed more now than ever.Learn more about Lear Capital at http://learjulie.com.
