The occasion is the publication of his newest book in the Rational Bible series, Deuteronomy: God, Blessings, and Curses… Los Angeles area young people are reporting dangerous rates of depression. A lack of religious instruction is one of the reasons, but not one acknowledged by the study, of course.  One of the key laws of Deuteronomy is not to favor the rich or poor in the pursuit justice. That’s why social justice is not Biblical. Social justice by definition means you favor one group over another… CA has become a “sanctuary state” for transgender kids.  CA will punish doctors not for malpractice, but for communicating “misinformation” to their patients regarding Covid-19.

Carl Jackson guest hosts for Dennis… Carl makes the case why this upcoming election is so important. It’s a showdown between the individual and the collective. Every conservative has to get involved. No excuses accepted.  The inflation rate is over 8%. But on many daily items like bacon the rate is much higher. This is a financial train wreck for ordinary citizens… There’s nothing “lunch-box” about Lunch-box Joe. If Biden was ever a moderate, he’s a leftist now.  When are black voters going to wake up to the fact that the Democrats are the true racists, not the Republicans.

Dennis and Julie delve into how real the show is…they both agree they must be the same person on and off the air.  It’s not the actions that matter… it’s the intentions.  God judges you is a more meaningful message than God loves you.  It is also preferred that you fear God rather than loving God, when you fear God… you fear less.  The Bible states that a person should fear their mother and father… in that order, for a reason.  Julie has found that reading the Bible makes her calmer …Dennis suggests it is because it keeps her in touch with the eternal.  The best is the enemy of the better.  You cannot judge people from the past by today’s standards.  You’ve got to know history… one of the staples of Julie’s new show Timeless.  A discussion of how tonal languages are much harder to learn leads Dennis’ to share a story of his street fight in Marrakech.  Why does Dennis love language so much?!  Dennis recommends The Story of Language by Mario Pei if you love language too.  What makes Finnish, Albanian, and Hungarian languages different than all others?  When you learn other languages, you improve your own.  They debate their favorite words in the English language.  Is it harder to convert a liberal or a Leftist?

Bob Frantz guest hosts for Dennis… MAGA is a movement.  Being a MAGA republican does not mean worshipping Donald Trump.  MAGA is a platform that includes: a nation that is safe, an economy that is strong, a future that’s built on freedom, and a government that’s accountability.  Being a police officer is a heroic job, it takes a special person to step up and be the thin blue line.  Pfizer CEO tests positive for COVID-19 for second time in two months.  Posse comitatus… in common law a group of people mobilized by the conservator of peace – typically a sheriff – to suppress lawlessness or defend the county.  Callers weigh in.Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

Sweden and Italy are two new examples.  On the eve of the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah, Dennis makes that the case that a fulfilling religious life offers one a better chance at happiness than a secular life.  Issues raised include: would Dennis ever consider adding a fourth “dedicated” hour; do we have political prisoners in the US; did Dennis ever dream PragerU would become as big as it has become.Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.
