We're not opening with Christmas music. 5 00:00:51,180 --> 00:00:55,899 Speaker 2: It goes fast, it does. It as my favorite time 6 00:00:55,940 --> 00:00:58,300 Speaker 2: of year. That's part of why I like it's a holly, 7 00:00:58,420 --> 00:01:00,660 Speaker 2: jolly Christmas. It's the best time of the year. It 8 00:01:00,700 --> 00:01:02,780 Speaker 2: is the best time of the year in the United States. 9 00:01:02,820 --> 00:01:04,580 Speaker 2: I mean, well, let's be honest, does a matter what 10 00:01:04,580 --> 00:01:08,060 Speaker 2: your religion is, just a fact. I'm Dennis Prager, and 11 00:01:08,100 --> 00:01:11,460 Speaker 2: I welcome you to the Dennis Prager Show. And I 12 00:01:11,500 --> 00:01:14,500 Speaker 2: hate putting in the Isn't that amazing? I don't do 13 00:01:14,620 --> 00:01:16,940 Speaker 2: so much. But when it comes to the name of 14 00:01:16,980 --> 00:01:23,020 Speaker 2: the show, because I'm self conscious about it to this day, right, 15 00:01:23,060 --> 00:01:25,100 Speaker 2: I understand what I'm saying. It would be as if 16 00:01:25,140 --> 00:01:29,380 Speaker 2: welcome to the Denniesprager Bridge. They named the bridge after me. 17 00:01:29,580 --> 00:01:31,980 Speaker 2: They named the show after me. You know what I mean? 18 00:01:32,100 --> 00:01:36,660 Speaker 2: Does that make any sense? I'm continuing. My plan was 19 00:01:36,860 --> 00:01:41,020 Speaker 2: as of a let's see week ago, whatever the date 20 00:01:41,180 --> 00:01:43,900 Speaker 2: was Now, we're going to talk about everything in the 21 00:01:44,140 --> 00:01:47,860 Speaker 2: until January first, really until December thirty first, so you 22 00:01:47,900 --> 00:01:51,260 Speaker 2: can call in whatever is on your mind. And I 23 00:01:51,300 --> 00:01:55,500 Speaker 2: hope you didn't have too much conflict with any family members. 24 00:01:57,980 --> 00:02:00,820 Speaker 2: That's it's a real possibility for a lot of people. 25 00:02:01,500 --> 00:02:05,140 Speaker 2: We've talked about that on a number of occasions. Remember, 26 00:02:05,540 --> 00:02:07,940 Speaker 2: you choose your friends, but you don't choose your family. 27 00:02:08,180 --> 00:02:13,500 Speaker 2: That's why, in effect, families broaden you. Even though we 28 00:02:13,579 --> 00:02:20,620 Speaker 2: think of families as insulating you, they also broaden you 29 00:02:20,620 --> 00:02:22,780 Speaker 2: because you have to relate to folks that you would 30 00:02:22,859 --> 00:02:27,380 Speaker 2: never relate to ever. Sean, how is your Christmas sir? 31 00:02:28,980 --> 00:02:34,620 Speaker 2: Was it a pleasant day off? Yes? It's not the 32 00:02:34,620 --> 00:02:38,220 Speaker 2: most enthusiastic nodding of the head that I've ever encountered, 33 00:02:38,260 --> 00:02:39,419 Speaker 2: but all right, I'll take it. 34 00:02:39,500 --> 00:02:40,020 Speaker 3: No, no, no, no. 35 00:02:43,620 --> 00:02:44,620 Speaker 4: Oh. 36 00:02:44,700 --> 00:02:49,540 Speaker 2: He gave his French bulldog yam and ham. You never 37 00:02:49,900 --> 00:02:56,419 Speaker 2: give rhyming food to a dog. I can't believe you've 38 00:02:56,420 --> 00:03:06,299 Speaker 2: got a dog license. It's elementary idea Watson, that's correct. 39 00:03:06,940 --> 00:03:09,740 Speaker 2: So one A Praguer seven seven six and I welcome 40 00:03:09,780 --> 00:03:12,500 Speaker 2: you to the Dennis Prager Show. We will have the 41 00:03:12,980 --> 00:03:19,060 Speaker 2: Female Hour on next so that will be according to schedule. 42 00:03:19,100 --> 00:03:20,820 Speaker 2: But now we can talk about anything. Did you hear 43 00:03:20,860 --> 00:03:28,300 Speaker 2: about this man who murdered those two? I'm trying to 44 00:03:28,340 --> 00:03:31,660 Speaker 2: avoid the news as best I can. I'm sorry for 45 00:03:31,700 --> 00:03:36,780 Speaker 2: this one. Now that man in western New York State 46 00:03:37,900 --> 00:03:46,140 Speaker 2: who murdered too auxiliary fire fed firefighters volunteer firefighters, Webster, 47 00:03:46,220 --> 00:03:50,540 Speaker 2: New York. And he shot to others critically injuring them 48 00:03:51,340 --> 00:03:56,660 Speaker 2: after he had set fire to his house. So everybody 49 00:03:56,700 --> 00:04:01,900 Speaker 2: will talk about guns again. But how about this possibility? 50 00:04:02,100 --> 00:04:06,140 Speaker 2: This man was that his grandmother Sean was that his 51 00:04:06,180 --> 00:04:12,500 Speaker 2: grandmother that he had murdered a with a hammer, He 52 00:04:12,620 --> 00:04:18,300 Speaker 2: had bashed her head in and he served seventeen years 53 00:04:18,300 --> 00:04:23,820 Speaker 2: in prison for doing that, and now murders to others 54 00:04:25,820 --> 00:04:28,339 Speaker 2: and I don't know what damage done to the two others, 55 00:04:30,020 --> 00:04:33,099 Speaker 2: and burned his home and it caused other homes to 56 00:04:33,140 --> 00:04:38,340 Speaker 2: burn that were adjacent to his home. We need liberalism 57 00:04:38,380 --> 00:04:42,940 Speaker 2: control more than we need or we need leftism control, 58 00:04:43,020 --> 00:04:45,380 Speaker 2: if you will, since there's no difference there used to 59 00:04:45,420 --> 00:04:47,540 Speaker 2: be a difference between liberal and left. There isn't a 60 00:04:47,620 --> 00:04:51,340 Speaker 2: left to go over liberalism. And if you can tell 61 00:04:51,340 --> 00:04:53,219 Speaker 2: me who's a liberal today? And not on the left. 62 00:04:53,500 --> 00:04:57,460 Speaker 2: I don't mean you or your cousin Jerry. I mean 63 00:04:57,820 --> 00:05:06,940 Speaker 2: in public life, in politics, in writing, in activism, leftism 64 00:05:06,980 --> 00:05:09,099 Speaker 2: control would do a lot more good for this country 65 00:05:09,140 --> 00:05:16,140 Speaker 2: than more gun control. The left believes that whose ideas 66 00:05:16,260 --> 00:05:19,820 Speaker 2: are Who thinks up the idea that a man who 67 00:05:19,900 --> 00:05:25,460 Speaker 2: hammers his grandmother to death only serve seventeen years in prison? 68 00:05:25,580 --> 00:05:27,979 Speaker 2: Who is that a left wing idea? Or is that 69 00:05:28,060 --> 00:05:31,460 Speaker 2: a right wing idea? Is it possible that if this 70 00:05:31,540 --> 00:05:34,700 Speaker 2: man had been in prison or as I believe, should 71 00:05:34,700 --> 00:05:40,420 Speaker 2: have been killed. But the left hates capital punishment. Oh, 72 00:05:40,460 --> 00:05:43,060 Speaker 2: it is one of the tenets of leftism. You cannot 73 00:05:43,220 --> 00:05:48,060 Speaker 2: join the European Union if your country allows murderers to 74 00:05:48,100 --> 00:05:51,820 Speaker 2: be killed. So enlightened Norway, consider, one of the most 75 00:05:51,940 --> 00:05:56,260 Speaker 2: enlightened countries in the world, only allows a maximum I believe, 76 00:05:56,300 --> 00:05:59,420 Speaker 2: of twenty one years in prison, including for a guy 77 00:05:59,540 --> 00:06:04,540 Speaker 2: like Brevick. So he murders seventy or so young people, 78 00:06:05,500 --> 00:06:08,020 Speaker 2: twenty one years? Why did we figure out it was 79 00:06:08,340 --> 00:06:12,300 Speaker 2: about four months a person, get four months per person 80 00:06:12,380 --> 00:06:19,659 Speaker 2: that he murdered. But to the progressive, that's progressive. So 81 00:06:19,820 --> 00:06:23,860 Speaker 2: those firefighters would be alive today had we not listened 82 00:06:23,860 --> 00:06:28,820 Speaker 2: to the left on punishing murderers. Okay, is anybody talking 83 00:06:28,900 --> 00:06:31,099 Speaker 2: about that? Or are they going to talk about guns again? 84 00:06:33,220 --> 00:06:36,900 Speaker 2: One eight Prager seven seven six. It's very infuriating to 85 00:06:36,940 --> 00:06:40,380 Speaker 2: me that that man was let out of prison after 86 00:06:40,420 --> 00:06:44,339 Speaker 2: seventeen years? What do you think will happen? What did 87 00:06:44,340 --> 00:06:46,300 Speaker 2: they think when they let him out? What did they 88 00:06:46,300 --> 00:06:49,620 Speaker 2: think when they sentenced him? A man who takes a 89 00:06:49,820 --> 00:06:54,900 Speaker 2: hammer to another human being's skull and ninety two year 90 00:06:54,940 --> 00:06:59,380 Speaker 2: old yes, and smashes that skull while the person is 91 00:06:59,500 --> 00:07:03,500 Speaker 2: consci conscious to death. He is going to be a 92 00:07:03,540 --> 00:07:08,060 Speaker 2: good citizen in seventeen years. This is not allowing some 93 00:07:08,100 --> 00:07:16,060 Speaker 2: sort of tornado into your culture. But newspaper outside of 94 00:07:16,100 --> 00:07:21,780 Speaker 2: New York, in Westchester County, for example, has just published 95 00:07:21,780 --> 00:07:23,740 Speaker 2: all the names of people who have gun permits with 96 00:07:23,780 --> 00:07:27,740 Speaker 2: their addresses. What service were they doing exactly? 97 00:07:27,820 --> 00:07:27,980 Speaker 4: Then? 98 00:07:29,700 --> 00:07:31,460 Speaker 2: I'd like to know what is the What is the 99 00:07:31,500 --> 00:07:33,540 Speaker 2: point of that is that like publishing the names of 100 00:07:33,660 --> 00:07:37,940 Speaker 2: John's men who go to a prostitute? Is that? What 101 00:07:38,140 --> 00:07:41,340 Speaker 2: is is that? What they're doing? I don't even quite understand. 102 00:07:41,380 --> 00:07:47,140 Speaker 2: Is it to shame people? Be interesting to find out 103 00:07:47,140 --> 00:07:52,340 Speaker 2: how many of those people are liberal. That's Westchester County 104 00:07:52,380 --> 00:07:54,820 Speaker 2: after all. Be very interesting to find out how many 105 00:07:54,900 --> 00:08:01,860 Speaker 2: of them are on the left. Remember that newspaperman who 106 00:08:02,180 --> 00:08:08,260 Speaker 2: constantly railed against against guns and for gun control. He 107 00:08:08,300 --> 00:08:11,020 Speaker 2: was a columnist for the Washington Post for many years. 108 00:08:11,620 --> 00:08:14,140 Speaker 2: Turns out a man came into his house to rob it, 109 00:08:14,740 --> 00:08:21,100 Speaker 2: and he took out his gun and stopped it. That 110 00:08:21,300 --> 00:08:23,780 Speaker 2: seems to me to be one of the rare times 111 00:08:23,820 --> 00:08:29,460 Speaker 2: the H word would be properly invoked. H as in hypocrite, 112 00:08:30,260 --> 00:08:36,340 Speaker 2: nothing as in Hippocrates. Yes, what is the purpose of 113 00:08:36,340 --> 00:08:39,300 Speaker 2: publishing the names of those people? It's the it's the 114 00:08:39,459 --> 00:08:43,620 Speaker 2: new method of the left. It's to shame and publicly 115 00:08:43,699 --> 00:08:47,180 Speaker 2: destroy as many people who oppose them as possible, like 116 00:08:47,220 --> 00:08:51,620 Speaker 2: the people who supported the Proposition eight in California to 117 00:08:51,740 --> 00:08:56,860 Speaker 2: retain the definition of marriage as male female. Because, as 118 00:08:56,900 --> 00:08:59,220 Speaker 2: you know, if you're on the left, you feel good 119 00:08:59,220 --> 00:09:02,300 Speaker 2: about yourself. You're kinder, fine, or smarter, better, more decent, 120 00:09:02,380 --> 00:09:06,540 Speaker 2: more compassionate, more progressive by definition than your opponents. So 121 00:09:06,660 --> 00:09:10,260 Speaker 2: therefore you can use any means at your disposal to 122 00:09:10,420 --> 00:09:17,260 Speaker 2: destroy the right, which is venomous. And so that is 123 00:09:17,300 --> 00:09:21,900 Speaker 2: what I would like to know. If we had more 124 00:09:21,940 --> 00:09:26,020 Speaker 2: gun control, or we had more criminal control, which would 125 00:09:26,100 --> 00:09:32,340 Speaker 2: reduce death by gun more readily. A post Christmas thought 126 00:09:32,700 --> 00:09:37,260 Speaker 2: for you at the Dennis Prager Show, just offering one 127 00:09:37,420 --> 00:09:41,260 Speaker 2: thought because you are invited to call in on anything 128 00:09:41,740 --> 00:09:45,020 Speaker 2: thine heart desires. I did, by the way, do what 129 00:09:45,100 --> 00:09:49,179 Speaker 2: I recommended to you, and raised at the family get 130 00:09:49,179 --> 00:09:57,820 Speaker 2: together of my wife that my wife's family and I 131 00:09:57,940 --> 00:10:00,700 Speaker 2: raised the issue of what do you think the eleventh 132 00:10:00,740 --> 00:10:05,380 Speaker 2: Commandment should be? Didn't go very long there. People have 133 00:10:06,179 --> 00:10:10,300 Speaker 2: all desires of talking. I'm not a utopian. It's just 134 00:10:10,380 --> 00:10:16,020 Speaker 2: good to raise thoughtful ideas at family or friends get 135 00:10:16,060 --> 00:10:18,740 Speaker 2: togethers in addition to the wonderful talk that friends have. 136 00:10:20,660 --> 00:10:24,260 Speaker 2: Stick with my idea, although you had some terrific ones 137 00:10:24,300 --> 00:10:27,020 Speaker 2: when I did it for two hours two days ago. 138 00:10:27,220 --> 00:10:29,580 Speaker 2: What should the eleventh commandment be? If there were one? 139 00:10:29,660 --> 00:10:31,860 Speaker 2: And I'm sticking with the one that I finally came 140 00:10:31,940 --> 00:10:35,100 Speaker 2: up with after I rejected my own I finally came 141 00:10:35,179 --> 00:10:43,140 Speaker 2: up with this, thou shalt battle thine nature. I can't 142 00:10:43,179 --> 00:10:48,420 Speaker 2: think of a greater single vehicle to goodness and a 143 00:10:48,460 --> 00:10:55,220 Speaker 2: better world than if everybody battled their own natures. So 144 00:10:55,340 --> 00:11:02,140 Speaker 2: that is my ongoing recommendation for Commandment eleven. Your calls 145 00:11:02,140 --> 00:11:04,260 Speaker 2: are coming up and you are listening to the Dennis 146 00:11:04,300 --> 00:11:14,060 Speaker 2: Prager Show. Prager for Hillsdale dot Com is a way 147 00:11:14,100 --> 00:11:18,860 Speaker 2: to know your country better, and it is free. It 148 00:11:18,980 --> 00:11:21,059 Speaker 2: is good for you. It is good for Hilldale to 149 00:11:21,140 --> 00:11:23,060 Speaker 2: get its words out. It is good for my show 150 00:11:23,140 --> 00:11:27,620 Speaker 2: that you go to what we ask you to.

Welcome back. 152 00:11:31,580 --> 00:11:39,540 Speaker 2: I'm Dennis Prager on the annual DAC Show. And that 153 00:11:39,660 --> 00:11:43,020 Speaker 2: is not Digital Analog Converter show, even though as soon 154 00:11:43,060 --> 00:11:46,699 Speaker 2: as I hear DAC, that's what I think, analog converter. 155 00:11:46,820 --> 00:11:52,459 Speaker 2: It's a stereo term. It's the day after Christmas. I'm 156 00:11:52,500 --> 00:12:00,300 Speaker 2: a big lover of acronyms, as you can tell. Well, indeed, 157 00:12:00,500 --> 00:12:05,300 Speaker 2: let's take some of your calls as promised to you, 158 00:12:07,980 --> 00:12:10,700 Speaker 2: and let's go to Keith in Los Angeles. Hello Keith, 159 00:12:10,700 --> 00:12:11,460 Speaker 2: Dennis Prager. 160 00:12:11,620 --> 00:12:13,820 Speaker 5: Well, hello Dennis, that was very quick. I thank you 161 00:12:13,940 --> 00:12:16,380 Speaker 5: very much for taking my call. I just want to 162 00:12:16,380 --> 00:12:20,780 Speaker 5: say I love your phrase about battling the nature, and 163 00:12:20,820 --> 00:12:23,260 Speaker 5: of course I think that that implies to me, it 164 00:12:23,300 --> 00:12:29,580 Speaker 5: implies some type of moral or religious edict or something 165 00:12:29,580 --> 00:12:31,780 Speaker 5: that we have to follow in order to be able 166 00:12:31,820 --> 00:12:34,940 Speaker 5: to do that. And I would say that the Trinity 167 00:12:35,020 --> 00:12:37,860 Speaker 5: that you talk about, you know, the American Trinity, is 168 00:12:37,900 --> 00:12:41,580 Speaker 5: a perfect example of self government and how the founders 169 00:12:42,220 --> 00:12:46,500 Speaker 5: at least gave us a constitutional republic that only a 170 00:12:46,580 --> 00:12:48,980 Speaker 5: governing and religious and moral people could follow. 171 00:12:49,700 --> 00:12:52,300 Speaker 2: Whoop, Sorry one second, that was a click. Yes you, 172 00:12:52,580 --> 00:12:56,100 Speaker 2: I entirely agree with you. That's my supposition. We are 173 00:12:56,220 --> 00:12:59,780 Speaker 2: undoing the American Revolution. The left is undoing the American Revolution. 174 00:13:00,940 --> 00:13:04,820 Speaker 2: It leftism is more powerful than American values right now, 175 00:13:04,860 --> 00:13:08,340 Speaker 2: even in America, and it's certainly more powerful than American 176 00:13:08,420 --> 00:13:09,580 Speaker 2: values everywhere in the world. 177 00:13:09,900 --> 00:13:12,820 Speaker 5: And could I say one more thing? You know, it's 178 00:13:12,820 --> 00:13:16,300 Speaker 5: interesting to note that if in the schools, you know, 179 00:13:16,340 --> 00:13:20,540 Speaker 5: we talk about you know, controlling guns, controlling putting out 180 00:13:20,660 --> 00:13:24,660 Speaker 5: more police, are putting more people in authority that can 181 00:13:24,700 --> 00:13:28,900 Speaker 5: handle guns. But what about teaching our youth, teaching kids 182 00:13:29,020 --> 00:13:31,340 Speaker 5: to be self governing in the sense that they can 183 00:13:31,380 --> 00:13:34,420 Speaker 5: control their passions. I mean, that's something that seems to 184 00:13:34,420 --> 00:13:36,500 Speaker 5: me across the board, that everybody should. 185 00:13:36,820 --> 00:13:40,220 Speaker 2: Uh control their passion? What's about her? You have not 186 00:13:40,300 --> 00:13:42,780 Speaker 2: read anything on the left that tells you that kids 187 00:13:42,780 --> 00:13:44,020 Speaker 2: are going to have sex anyway. 188 00:13:45,220 --> 00:13:48,180 Speaker 5: Yes, I understand, all right, could bless you? 189 00:13:48,260 --> 00:13:52,380 Speaker 2: Thank you very much. Here's a question that I have. 190 00:13:52,460 --> 00:13:54,260 Speaker 2: I would like to know if you went to church 191 00:13:56,260 --> 00:14:00,140 Speaker 2: anytime during Christmas and you are not a member of 192 00:14:00,380 --> 00:14:07,940 Speaker 2: a conservative church like a evangelical Christian one, what did 193 00:14:07,980 --> 00:14:12,380 Speaker 2: your pastor or priest speak about? If your pastor or 194 00:14:12,460 --> 00:14:17,980 Speaker 2: priest is not conservative, what did he or she not 195 00:14:18,100 --> 00:14:20,220 Speaker 2: in the case of priest is no she, But what 196 00:14:20,260 --> 00:14:24,220 Speaker 2: did he or she Protestant? What did he, if Catholic, 197 00:14:24,460 --> 00:14:30,500 Speaker 2: speak about? Wonder? I mean, I'm just curious. I'm very 198 00:14:30,580 --> 00:14:38,020 Speaker 2: curious what a non conservative clergy person would have spoken on. 199 00:14:39,260 --> 00:14:43,180 Speaker 2: I watched the Pope from Rome. This is an entire 200 00:14:43,260 --> 00:14:46,340 Speaker 2: life tradition that started in my home as a child, 201 00:14:46,540 --> 00:14:50,700 Speaker 2: to watch the Mass from the Vatican, and the Pope 202 00:14:50,780 --> 00:14:55,620 Speaker 2: spoke about needing time in our lives for God. Spoke 203 00:14:55,700 --> 00:14:59,980 Speaker 2: to within the most secularized place in the history of Earth, 204 00:15:00,460 --> 00:15:05,100 Speaker 2: Western Europe. You realize that in recorded history we do 205 00:15:05,180 --> 00:15:09,020 Speaker 2: not know of a place as godless as Western Europe is. 206 00:15:09,100 --> 00:15:15,380 Speaker 2: It's an experiment in human development. It's failing. But does 207 00:15:15,460 --> 00:15:21,060 Speaker 2: it to the believers in secularism? It is never enough 208 00:15:21,740 --> 00:15:25,300 Speaker 2: and certainly never too much. You can be too religious, 209 00:15:26,140 --> 00:15:36,340 Speaker 2: but you can't be too secular. That was in fact 210 00:15:37,380 --> 00:15:43,340 Speaker 2: or in effect, what the Pope was talking about in 211 00:15:43,380 --> 00:15:47,340 Speaker 2: our lives, the necessity of God and religion. You look 212 00:15:47,340 --> 00:15:51,260 Speaker 2: at the Western world and its advances in virtually everything, 213 00:15:52,940 --> 00:15:56,860 Speaker 2: and then wonder might it have anything to do with 214 00:15:57,020 --> 00:16:01,540 Speaker 2: the way in which Christianity and then the Judeo Christian 215 00:16:01,660 --> 00:16:05,860 Speaker 2: values took root. Is that possible? Is the most successful 216 00:16:05,900 --> 00:16:08,460 Speaker 2: country in the history of the world, rooted as it 217 00:16:08,580 --> 00:16:15,060 Speaker 2: is in Judeo Christian values quite affirmatively, quite consciously taking 218 00:16:15,100 --> 00:16:17,340 Speaker 2: a verse from the Torah to put on the liberty 219 00:16:17,340 --> 00:16:22,380 Speaker 2: bell Christians, putting that verse there announcing in effect that 220 00:16:22,540 --> 00:16:26,500 Speaker 2: it is a Judaeo Christian country. Might that have anything 221 00:16:26,540 --> 00:16:30,820 Speaker 2: to do with our success or in an arrogance the 222 00:16:30,980 --> 00:16:36,620 Speaker 2: likes of which is unparalleled? In my opinion? Is there 223 00:16:36,620 --> 00:16:39,220 Speaker 2: a belief that, as I said, we can undo the 224 00:16:39,260 --> 00:16:43,620 Speaker 2: American Revolution, which was a revolution of ideas. Yes, there 225 00:16:43,620 --> 00:16:47,940 Speaker 2: was a revolutionary war. They're not undoing that. They don't 226 00:16:47,980 --> 00:16:53,220 Speaker 2: want us to become a British colony again, although they 227 00:16:53,220 --> 00:16:57,860 Speaker 2: would like to see us essentially become part of Europe. Ideologically, 228 00:16:59,740 --> 00:17:03,740 Speaker 2: but yes, it's undoing the American revolution of ideas. And 229 00:17:03,780 --> 00:17:07,500 Speaker 2: it is an idea that a free people cannot exist 230 00:17:08,540 --> 00:17:14,379 Speaker 2: if they don't feel accountable to God. You have to 231 00:17:15,020 --> 00:17:17,619 Speaker 2: know they didn't trust the human Oh, everybody will be 232 00:17:17,700 --> 00:17:24,260 Speaker 2: accountable to his own conscience. Give me a break. Got 233 00:17:24,260 --> 00:17:30,899 Speaker 2: to be accountable to God. And let's go to more 234 00:17:30,939 --> 00:17:33,659 Speaker 2: of your calls in New Jersey. It's Michael. Hello, Michael 235 00:17:33,659 --> 00:17:34,339 Speaker 2: Dennis Prager. 236 00:17:37,419 --> 00:17:42,139 Speaker 4: Quite an honor. I've often heard you talk about everybody 237 00:17:42,179 --> 00:17:45,619 Speaker 4: has a moral bank account, Yes, and I would like 238 00:17:45,699 --> 00:17:49,059 Speaker 4: to know have set account as utilized for earthly or 239 00:17:49,139 --> 00:17:51,780 Speaker 4: divide for our purposes for a little bit. 240 00:17:51,699 --> 00:17:55,059 Speaker 2: Of post well, a lot of both. But when I 241 00:17:55,179 --> 00:17:59,100 Speaker 2: talk about it, it's it's earthly, okay, But. 242 00:17:59,260 --> 00:18:01,820 Speaker 4: It's going to be possible that their lies. I'm seen 243 00:18:01,939 --> 00:18:05,259 Speaker 4: within the human mechanism something that each act of good 244 00:18:05,739 --> 00:18:07,779 Speaker 4: and each act of what is evil or sinner the 245 00:18:07,780 --> 00:18:10,659 Speaker 4: opposite of good, somehow affect something. And then there's something. 246 00:18:10,699 --> 00:18:13,340 Speaker 4: When the physical dies, it has turned over to God. 247 00:18:13,459 --> 00:18:16,540 Speaker 2: And yeah, well, I I believe we answer to God 248 00:18:16,659 --> 00:18:19,859 Speaker 2: for our moral bank account, of course, and God knows 249 00:18:19,899 --> 00:18:23,300 Speaker 2: the moral bank account better than man does. But whenever 250 00:18:23,340 --> 00:18:25,939 Speaker 2: I use the term, it is vis v other people 251 00:18:26,899 --> 00:18:30,139 Speaker 2: that we need. Thank you, thank you very much, thank 252 00:18:30,179 --> 00:18:33,899 Speaker 2: you for calling we need that. I came up with 253 00:18:33,979 --> 00:18:38,899 Speaker 2: this idea when Clarence Thomas was being humiliated by the left. 254 00:18:39,739 --> 00:18:43,939 Speaker 2: Humiliation is a major weapon of the left, and that's 255 00:18:44,260 --> 00:18:47,459 Speaker 2: so to speak about a man the way they did 256 00:18:48,780 --> 00:18:52,219 Speaker 2: was fine because a black Conservative should never have gotten 257 00:18:52,260 --> 00:18:55,459 Speaker 2: onto the Supreme Court. The most hated group in the 258 00:18:55,540 --> 00:19:02,300 Speaker 2: United States not Muslims. It's not gays, it's not the usual, 259 00:19:03,619 --> 00:19:08,419 Speaker 2: certainly not blacks. It's black conservatives. That's the most hated 260 00:19:08,419 --> 00:19:12,460 Speaker 2: group in the United States. You know, believe me, ask them. 261 00:19:12,500 --> 00:19:16,459 Speaker 2: They call this show regularly. Seriously, I want you to 262 00:19:16,540 --> 00:19:19,379 Speaker 2: name me a group as hated as black conservatives. One 263 00:19:19,500 --> 00:19:28,580 Speaker 2: eight Praeger seven. You're listening to the Dennis Prager Show. 264 00:19:28,619 --> 00:19:31,299 Speaker 2: And if you're thinking of last minute contributions, think of 265 00:19:31,340 --> 00:19:37,859 Speaker 2: Prager University tax Exempt works very hard to restore American values. 266 00:19:38,939 --> 00:19:41,859 Speaker 2: But in any event, do visit it. And of course 267 00:19:41,859 --> 00:19:44,419 Speaker 2: I renew my appeal for the Salvation Army at the 268 00:19:44,500 --> 00:19:47,659 Speaker 2: Red Kettle that you will find at Dennispraguer dot com. 269 00:19:47,659 --> 00:19:50,499 Speaker 2: We have raised the most in American radio on the 270 00:19:50,540 --> 00:19:54,740 Speaker 2: show for that wonderful organization, and I thank you from 271 00:19:54,739 --> 00:19:59,820 Speaker 2: the bottom of my heart. This is the Dennis Prager Show, 272 00:20:00,060 --> 00:20:03,379 Speaker 2: and if you are a new listener, we talk about 273 00:20:03,419 --> 00:20:06,899 Speaker 2: everything in life. Next hour you will see an example 274 00:20:06,939 --> 00:20:09,539 Speaker 2: of that because we have the Male Female Hour coming 275 00:20:09,619 --> 00:20:13,939 Speaker 2: up next hour. That's Wednesday, the second day. I have 276 00:20:14,060 --> 00:20:16,419 Speaker 2: lost such track of the days of this week because 277 00:20:16,459 --> 00:20:19,700 Speaker 2: of Christmas. I keep thinking it's Thursday. And I don't 278 00:20:19,780 --> 00:20:25,100 Speaker 2: understand why I've had myself a day ahead each day 279 00:20:25,340 --> 00:20:28,979 Speaker 2: this week, and I don't know why. It doesn't particularly 280 00:20:28,979 --> 00:20:34,020 Speaker 2: bother me, but that's the fact. Let's go to more 281 00:20:34,060 --> 00:20:36,460 Speaker 2: of your calls. You're free to call in till December 282 00:20:36,500 --> 00:20:42,220 Speaker 2: thirty first on anything. Normally I set the agenda and 283 00:20:42,419 --> 00:20:46,699 Speaker 2: we have dialogue, but now you do Johnny. What are 284 00:20:46,699 --> 00:20:48,660 Speaker 2: your California? How old are you? Johnny? 285 00:20:49,619 --> 00:20:51,820 Speaker 6: Hey, Dennis, I'm pleasure to be on the show. 286 00:20:52,060 --> 00:20:53,139 Speaker 2: Thank you. How old are you? 287 00:20:53,619 --> 00:20:54,220 Speaker 6: I'm eighteen? 288 00:20:54,979 --> 00:20:55,859 Speaker 2: Are you in school? 289 00:20:56,500 --> 00:20:56,660 Speaker 7: Ah? 290 00:20:56,739 --> 00:20:58,219 Speaker 6: Yeah, I go to woo are you High School? 291 00:20:58,260 --> 00:21:01,580 Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, very nice? What's on your mind? Johnny? 292 00:21:02,300 --> 00:21:04,739 Speaker 6: I had a question about the whole cycle cliff. 293 00:21:04,500 --> 00:21:06,939 Speaker 2: Deal, fiscal cliff. Take it away? 294 00:21:07,979 --> 00:21:10,459 Speaker 6: So we know that the republic is at the fiscle 295 00:21:10,500 --> 00:21:13,500 Speaker 6: cliff fall. They're not going to get re elected. But yeah, 296 00:21:13,540 --> 00:21:15,899 Speaker 6: if they go along with Obamas Flans, they may as 297 00:21:15,899 --> 00:21:18,100 Speaker 6: well might get reelected against from the right side. 298 00:21:18,379 --> 00:21:21,779 Speaker 2: Well, that's exactly their dilemma there. It's so rock in 299 00:21:21,859 --> 00:21:22,539 Speaker 2: a hard place. 300 00:21:23,500 --> 00:21:24,939 Speaker 6: So what would this solution be. 301 00:21:25,619 --> 00:21:28,340 Speaker 2: My solution would be to articulate what we stand for. 302 00:21:28,979 --> 00:21:32,340 Speaker 2: We are a selfish generation and we are immorally bequeathing 303 00:21:32,379 --> 00:21:36,139 Speaker 2: to you, Johnny and your generation, debt so that we 304 00:21:36,219 --> 00:21:39,379 Speaker 2: could live better. And the fact that the Democrats think 305 00:21:39,379 --> 00:21:43,500 Speaker 2: that that's altruistic is turning altruism and decency upside down. 306 00:21:44,699 --> 00:21:47,020 Speaker 2: That's what I would say, and that would be effective. 307 00:21:47,619 --> 00:21:51,179 Speaker 2: But we have virtually no effective spokesman in politics. We 308 00:21:51,260 --> 00:21:54,539 Speaker 2: have enormous numbers of effective spokesmen in writing and in 309 00:21:54,580 --> 00:21:59,539 Speaker 2: speaking outside of politics, but not within the Republican Party 310 00:21:59,580 --> 00:22:03,899 Speaker 2: elected officials. It is the tragedy of my time that 311 00:22:03,939 --> 00:22:06,699 Speaker 2: the Republicans have not been able to articulate and often 312 00:22:06,739 --> 00:22:10,220 Speaker 2: not even exemplify conservative principles. 313 00:22:11,100 --> 00:22:13,899 Speaker 6: Well, thank you answering my question, Dennis. 314 00:22:13,659 --> 00:22:18,060 Speaker 2: Thank you for calling and asking it. It's these are 315 00:22:18,139 --> 00:22:22,859 Speaker 2: wonderful men. Wonderful men. John Bain Eric Kennedy's are wonderful men, 316 00:22:24,340 --> 00:22:28,139 Speaker 2: and they're earnest and they understand the issues. But they 317 00:22:28,179 --> 00:22:31,179 Speaker 2: don't speak in the grand terms that the left does. 318 00:22:32,580 --> 00:22:36,939 Speaker 2: Grand terms win folks. You want the moral high ground. Left, 319 00:22:37,060 --> 00:22:39,820 Speaker 2: we have the moral high ground. You have the selfish 320 00:22:39,939 --> 00:22:44,500 Speaker 2: high ground. You have the misguided high ground. You have 321 00:22:44,659 --> 00:22:50,739 Speaker 2: the Unamerican values, not patriotic, not lovers of America, not 322 00:22:50,859 --> 00:22:58,100 Speaker 2: lovers of American values. High ground or a low ground. 323 00:22:59,260 --> 00:23:03,459 Speaker 2: You just repeat over and over. The dilemma is big 324 00:23:03,540 --> 00:23:08,179 Speaker 2: government and spending that is immoral. We will not be 325 00:23:08,340 --> 00:23:11,699 Speaker 2: part of the immorality of taking money away from the 326 00:23:11,780 --> 00:23:16,820 Speaker 2: next generations to pay for our schemes that don't work. 327 00:23:18,139 --> 00:23:20,499 Speaker 2: We will not be Greece as long as there is 328 00:23:20,739 --> 00:23:28,699 Speaker 2: Republican Party. Thank you, mister president. Imagine that you talk 329 00:23:28,820 --> 00:23:32,619 Speaker 2: and clipped staccato sentences so that the morons and the 330 00:23:32,659 --> 00:23:36,260 Speaker 2: media the herd have no choice but to repeat your 331 00:23:36,260 --> 00:23:44,539 Speaker 2: good lines. That's what you do. It's not robin hood. 332 00:23:44,540 --> 00:23:48,219 Speaker 2: In fact, it's taking from the future to pay for 333 00:23:48,300 --> 00:23:55,939 Speaker 2: the present. If that's the democratic robin hood, Okay, let's 334 00:23:56,020 --> 00:24:01,060 Speaker 2: use all their terms and then show what they actually mean, 335 00:24:02,699 --> 00:24:07,379 Speaker 2: it is immoral. If anything is immoral, robbing from the 336 00:24:07,419 --> 00:24:11,379 Speaker 2: future to pay for the schemes and selfishness of the 337 00:24:11,419 --> 00:24:16,100 Speaker 2: present is one of them. That is what the Democratic 338 00:24:16,179 --> 00:24:21,499 Speaker 2: Party stands for American people. We don't. We were the 339 00:24:21,540 --> 00:24:25,859 Speaker 2: party that opposed slavery, and today we are willing to 340 00:24:25,939 --> 00:24:31,579 Speaker 2: fight for opposing the robbing of our children. You're listening 341 00:24:31,580 --> 00:24:50,019 Speaker 2: to the Dennis Prager Show. Hello, everybody, you're listening to 342 00:24:50,060 --> 00:24:54,179 Speaker 2: the Dennis Prager Show in Rockland County, New York. It's Cara. Hello, Kara, 343 00:24:54,260 --> 00:24:54,979 Speaker 2: Dennis Prager. 344 00:24:55,659 --> 00:24:57,460 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, hello, mister Crager. 345 00:24:57,739 --> 00:25:01,060 Speaker 2: Hi, I'm sorry, what was that. 346 00:25:01,859 --> 00:25:03,580 Speaker 3: I just asked? How are you doing? 347 00:25:03,899 --> 00:25:07,219 Speaker 2: Oh? I'm well, thank you, right, that's. 348 00:25:07,100 --> 00:25:11,459 Speaker 3: Great to hear. I just wanted to comment on the 349 00:25:11,820 --> 00:25:16,100 Speaker 3: situation with the Journal News in my county because perfectly 350 00:25:17,100 --> 00:25:22,260 Speaker 3: published the information for both Westchester County and Roslin County. 351 00:25:23,100 --> 00:25:26,300 Speaker 3: They wanted to publish her Putnam County, but I don't 352 00:25:26,340 --> 00:25:31,340 Speaker 3: think the information is available. But what funned me was 353 00:25:31,379 --> 00:25:34,540 Speaker 3: that they also wanted to publish more information. They wanted 354 00:25:34,580 --> 00:25:38,019 Speaker 3: to publish how many guns were in these homes and 355 00:25:38,060 --> 00:25:41,019 Speaker 3: what types of guns are in these homes. But the 356 00:25:41,100 --> 00:25:46,619 Speaker 3: county clerk told them that that information wasn't to be 357 00:25:46,820 --> 00:25:51,539 Speaker 3: made public. But the thing that also gets me is 358 00:25:51,540 --> 00:25:55,459 Speaker 3: that you know you have former law enforcement on that list. 359 00:25:55,939 --> 00:25:59,820 Speaker 3: You have you know, DA's and things on that list, 360 00:25:59,939 --> 00:26:03,979 Speaker 3: people who are protecting their families and might legitimately have 361 00:26:04,179 --> 00:26:06,459 Speaker 3: people that are coming after them. 362 00:26:06,979 --> 00:26:11,060 Speaker 2: They don't care. You don't understand. The left will destroy 363 00:26:11,340 --> 00:26:15,500 Speaker 2: anything and anyone to get its ends met because they're 364 00:26:15,540 --> 00:26:19,979 Speaker 2: so noble. They know they're noble, and they they don't 365 00:26:20,020 --> 00:26:25,299 Speaker 2: have to consider the effects of what they support. This 366 00:26:25,459 --> 00:26:26,739 Speaker 2: is classic leftism. 367 00:26:27,699 --> 00:26:29,659 Speaker 3: Yeah, anything for the cause. 368 00:26:30,260 --> 00:26:32,859 Speaker 2: Yes, that's right. Isn't the cause of saving kids from 369 00:26:32,859 --> 00:26:37,060 Speaker 2: being shocked worth it? That's how they think. It's all emotional. 370 00:26:40,419 --> 00:26:42,739 Speaker 2: It is one of the most important points in my 371 00:26:42,859 --> 00:26:47,180 Speaker 2: book about Americanism. Leftism and Islamism still the best hope, 372 00:26:48,859 --> 00:26:52,379 Speaker 2: and that is that I make I show how leftism 373 00:26:52,500 --> 00:26:55,459 Speaker 2: is emotion based. If you to understand the Left, you 374 00:26:55,540 --> 00:27:00,459 Speaker 2: must understand it is not reason based. It is emotion based. 375 00:27:00,500 --> 00:27:06,500 Speaker 2: The entire battle here visa VI guns is emotional. They 376 00:27:06,540 --> 00:27:09,699 Speaker 2: hate guns, they hate nuclear weapons, so therefore the United 377 00:27:09,739 --> 00:27:13,340 Speaker 2: States should not have any. It's the same exact mode 378 00:27:13,379 --> 00:27:19,580 Speaker 2: of thinking. Values do not animate people inanimate objects are 379 00:27:19,659 --> 00:27:26,540 Speaker 2: what we should fight. They don't fight evil people, and 380 00:27:26,619 --> 00:27:31,859 Speaker 2: therefore those who fight them are evil. And you're so right. 381 00:27:32,340 --> 00:27:36,220 Speaker 2: Not only is the address written of all of these 382 00:27:36,260 --> 00:27:39,540 Speaker 2: people who own guns, but the fact is the address 383 00:27:39,659 --> 00:27:42,819 Speaker 2: is given, and in some cases where it might be 384 00:27:42,859 --> 00:27:46,060 Speaker 2: a judge, or might be an ex judge or a 385 00:27:46,139 --> 00:27:49,580 Speaker 2: law enforcement officer, that is the last thing they have 386 00:27:49,659 --> 00:27:54,020 Speaker 2: ever wanted published. All this will do is now have 387 00:27:54,619 --> 00:27:59,340 Speaker 2: people take out guns with an address that is not 388 00:27:59,419 --> 00:28:05,659 Speaker 2: their home. Simple, it's easy to do. That's all it 389 00:28:05,699 --> 00:28:08,459 Speaker 2: is that it will make Americans more secretive. It is 390 00:28:08,500 --> 00:28:14,259 Speaker 2: an utterly destructive act. But remember the moment you ask 391 00:28:14,699 --> 00:28:18,899 Speaker 2: does it work? You have become a conservative When you 392 00:28:19,100 --> 00:28:23,260 Speaker 2: ask do I feel good about myself? Then you are 393 00:28:23,580 --> 00:28:27,100 Speaker 2: on the left self. The self esteem movement, as I 394 00:28:27,100 --> 00:28:30,100 Speaker 2: have pointed out a thousand times, came from the left 395 00:28:30,179 --> 00:28:34,499 Speaker 2: in California, where I live. I give you the dates, 396 00:28:34,540 --> 00:28:38,580 Speaker 2: I give you the person. John Vosconcellos a state senator 397 00:28:38,979 --> 00:28:41,900 Speaker 2: who had therapy later in life and realized that his 398 00:28:42,380 --> 00:28:46,900 Speaker 2: Catholic upbringing, or so he realized and he felt, did 399 00:28:46,940 --> 00:28:49,979 Speaker 2: not give him high self esteem. And now he was 400 00:28:50,020 --> 00:28:53,700 Speaker 2: a better person for having high self esteem. He confused 401 00:28:53,739 --> 00:29:00,900 Speaker 2: psychological health with moral health. They're not identical. They are 402 00:29:00,940 --> 00:29:04,420 Speaker 2: not identical, And I'm not sure how morally healthful high 403 00:29:04,500 --> 00:29:07,540 Speaker 2: self esteem is, and is certainly not morally healthful. I 404 00:29:07,580 --> 00:29:12,100 Speaker 2: don't know if it is psychologically as healthful as people think. 405 00:29:14,860 --> 00:29:18,300 Speaker 2: Ask anyone you most admire, Ask the people you most 406 00:29:18,380 --> 00:29:20,620 Speaker 2: think highly of as a human being in your life, 407 00:29:20,700 --> 00:29:25,100 Speaker 2: life relative or not. Did they have high self esteem 408 00:29:25,100 --> 00:29:27,580 Speaker 2: when they were a child, And the answer will be no. 409 00:29:28,780 --> 00:29:31,940 Speaker 2: Overwhelmingly likely that the answer will be no, So they 410 00:29:31,940 --> 00:29:36,860 Speaker 2: have self esteem. At the newspaper that did this, the 411 00:29:37,660 --> 00:29:42,100 Speaker 2: or was it the New York Journal News? Yep? The 412 00:29:42,180 --> 00:29:45,299 Speaker 2: gun owner next door? What you don't know about the 413 00:29:45,380 --> 00:29:48,979 Speaker 2: weapons in your neighborhood because, as you know, these are 414 00:29:48,979 --> 00:29:53,620 Speaker 2: the people you have to fear, right judges, policemen, retired policeman, 415 00:29:53,739 --> 00:29:58,940 Speaker 2: FBI agents, and now we know where they live because 416 00:29:59,100 --> 00:30:05,059 Speaker 2: these fools at the Journal News, owned by Gannett Newspapers, 417 00:30:05,060 --> 00:30:10,380 Speaker 2: published this. I can't imagine that the you know, other 418 00:30:10,500 --> 00:30:14,620 Speaker 2: other liberal papers and others will not join the fray, 419 00:30:15,020 --> 00:30:20,460 Speaker 2: thinking they're doing a great service. Alright, let's go too. 420 00:30:22,700 --> 00:30:27,220 Speaker 2: Kathy in else Agudo, California, Hi Kathy High. 421 00:30:27,260 --> 00:30:33,700 Speaker 8: Dennis, Hi, wondering if you had a recommendation for a 422 00:30:33,820 --> 00:30:38,460 Speaker 8: version of the Bible that's really true to the real 423 00:30:38,500 --> 00:30:43,180 Speaker 8: translation that's not the King James version that maybe also 424 00:30:43,219 --> 00:30:43,900 Speaker 8: easy to read. 425 00:30:45,340 --> 00:30:51,779 Speaker 2: Well easy to read is in some conflict with you 426 00:30:52,660 --> 00:30:56,979 Speaker 2: know extreme. Yes, that's right, okay. I know the I 427 00:30:57,020 --> 00:31:00,219 Speaker 2: know Biblical Hebrew very well, and so I was able 428 00:31:00,300 --> 00:31:03,260 Speaker 2: to see how the translations work. 429 00:31:04,500 --> 00:31:04,620 Speaker 7: Uh. 430 00:31:04,940 --> 00:31:07,700 Speaker 2: I love the King James as it happens, I really do, 431 00:31:07,820 --> 00:31:11,900 Speaker 2: but I fully understand people want a more readable modern version. 432 00:31:12,100 --> 00:31:16,940 Speaker 2: I use the NIV for modern readability. I use also 433 00:31:17,020 --> 00:31:22,900 Speaker 2: the Jewish Publication Society ranslation. So those are two that 434 00:31:22,979 --> 00:31:27,620 Speaker 2: I use for readability. I constantly in teaching the Bible 435 00:31:27,739 --> 00:31:34,259 Speaker 2: have shown where you get real inaccuracies. But nothing is 436 00:31:34,300 --> 00:31:47,860 Speaker 2: perfect in life, so try those male female hour coming up? Hi, everybody, 437 00:31:47,900 --> 00:31:50,540 Speaker 2: Dennis Prager here, Northridge, California. Robert Hi. 438 00:31:51,420 --> 00:31:56,299 Speaker 7: Hi, Dennis, Hi, thank you for calling. A couple of 439 00:31:56,300 --> 00:31:59,059 Speaker 7: three months ago. I think it was you had you 440 00:31:59,100 --> 00:32:02,339 Speaker 7: were talking about something and you mentioned that a man's 441 00:32:02,420 --> 00:32:07,579 Speaker 7: mission or purpose was to figure out work and sex. 442 00:32:07,860 --> 00:32:09,100 Speaker 7: Do I have that right? 443 00:32:10,580 --> 00:32:12,940 Speaker 2: Well, you have to figure them out. I don't recall 444 00:32:13,020 --> 00:32:17,259 Speaker 2: saying it quite that way. But it's let's say, it's 445 00:32:17,580 --> 00:32:22,059 Speaker 2: not an invalid point. But I I don't know. I 446 00:32:22,140 --> 00:32:24,580 Speaker 2: said that he has to I know what I have said. 447 00:32:24,940 --> 00:32:28,779 Speaker 2: Boys are raised properly to know that they have to 448 00:32:28,820 --> 00:32:31,140 Speaker 2: fight two parts of their nature at least, and that 449 00:32:31,300 --> 00:32:39,700 Speaker 2: is physical aggression and sexual predatory urges. Okay, that I've 450 00:32:39,739 --> 00:32:43,140 Speaker 2: said many times, and then I always truxtapose it with 451 00:32:43,340 --> 00:32:45,860 Speaker 2: and so what do we raise girls to fight in 452 00:32:45,940 --> 00:32:48,299 Speaker 2: their natures? And there we've made a big mistake. We 453 00:32:48,340 --> 00:32:51,620 Speaker 2: don't teach girls to fight their natures nearly as much 454 00:32:51,660 --> 00:32:52,780 Speaker 2: as we teach boys. Too. 455 00:32:54,100 --> 00:32:55,580 Speaker 7: Well, I guess I heard it wrong. 456 00:32:55,620 --> 00:32:59,580 Speaker 2: Then, Well, the fact is though that the sentiment is accurate. 457 00:32:59,660 --> 00:33:02,259 Speaker 2: It is certainly part of what a man has to 458 00:33:02,300 --> 00:33:07,420 Speaker 2: do is to figure out what you just said that, 459 00:33:08,060 --> 00:33:11,979 Speaker 2: figure out what he will do for work that is 460 00:33:11,979 --> 00:33:15,580 Speaker 2: in the outer world, and how he will control himself 461 00:33:15,620 --> 00:33:17,420 Speaker 2: sexually that's the inner world. 462 00:33:17,900 --> 00:33:19,900 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's just kind of a question I've always had, 463 00:33:19,940 --> 00:33:23,780 Speaker 7: and I maybe I maybe from pondering that a lot, 464 00:33:23,820 --> 00:33:25,700 Speaker 7: maybe that's how I heard you say that. 465 00:33:25,940 --> 00:33:28,900 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, that's one of the reasons that I repeat 466 00:33:29,060 --> 00:33:34,300 Speaker 2: very important points I have learned over time that people 467 00:33:34,380 --> 00:33:39,340 Speaker 2: do miss here completely understandably, so do I. We all do. 468 00:33:40,260 --> 00:33:43,420 Speaker 2: And since I want to touch your life with ideas, 469 00:33:43,979 --> 00:33:47,380 Speaker 2: I will repeat them. I will often repeat them in 470 00:33:47,420 --> 00:33:50,819 Speaker 2: different ways, but I will repeat them as I have 471 00:33:50,860 --> 00:33:55,059 Speaker 2: come up with this saying what is it? Let's say, uh, 472 00:33:55,739 --> 00:34:00,900 Speaker 2: repetition is the mother of pedagogy. There you go. Pedagogy 473 00:34:00,979 --> 00:34:05,180 Speaker 2: is teaching specifically children, but it means teaching or education, 474 00:34:06,820 --> 00:34:09,259 Speaker 2: and repetition is the mother. And you will say these 475 00:34:09,300 --> 00:34:11,500 Speaker 2: things to your children when you lie down, when you 476 00:34:11,780 --> 00:34:15,300 Speaker 2: rise up, when you walk by the way. In other words, 477 00:34:15,300 --> 00:34:17,460 Speaker 2: it has to be repeated. We have not repeated the 478 00:34:17,500 --> 00:34:21,859 Speaker 2: American value system, and we're losing it. It's truly as 479 00:34:21,860 --> 00:34:24,779 Speaker 2: simple as that. Remember once again, Leftism has been the 480 00:34:24,780 --> 00:34:28,620 Speaker 2: most dynamic religion in the world that includes Christianity and Islam. 481 00:34:29,140 --> 00:34:36,819 Speaker 2: Leftism has been more dynamic. It's too bad because Americanism, 482 00:34:36,859 --> 00:34:40,940 Speaker 2: which includes do they have Christian values and God, should 483 00:34:40,980 --> 00:34:42,899 Speaker 2: be the most dynamic because it's the one that has 484 00:34:42,980 --> 00:34:49,140 Speaker 2: worked best. Doesn't that matter? What works best? Who has 485 00:34:49,180 --> 00:34:52,900 Speaker 2: done more good on earth than the United States? Shouldn't 486 00:34:52,940 --> 00:34:58,340 Speaker 2: we ask why now the male female hour follows? 487 00:35:10,060 --> 00:35:14,380 Speaker 1: This has been timeless Wisdom with Dennis Prager.
