All of creation, in the biblical view, was to ultimately prepare the way for the creation of man. But one does not need the Bible alone to hold this view. A purely scientific reading of the universe is in keeping with this view. Everything - every natural and physical law - is exquisitely tuned to produce life, and ultimately man, on earth.
Dennis PragerThe idea that you earn things - that you earn respect, that you earn income, responsibility. the vote, punishment... these ideas are anathema to the liberal mind.
Dennis PragerThe more that you expect, the less happy you will be-- because if the expectations are realized you won't be grateful
Dennis PragerGiven the amount of unjust suffering and unhappiness in the world, I am deeply grateful for, sometimes even perplexed by, how much misery I have been spared.
Dennis PragerThe sad fact is that if you love education, revere the life of the mind, care about the pursuit of truth, think young people need to receive wisdom from their elders, and value moral clarity, the university is the last place you would want to send your 18-year-old.
Dennis PragerMost blacks want school vouchers, but most liberals vehemently oppose them. Why? Because what is good for teachers' unions is of more importance to the Left than what is good for blacks. Who, then, is racist? By their own admission, and by the policies they pursue, the answer is the people who call themselves progressive.
Dennis PragerLeftists' meanness toward those with whom they differ has no echo on the normative right.
Dennis PragerThe more the state gives to its citizens, the less they have to earn. That is the basic concept of the welfare state - you receive almost everything you need without having to earn any of it. About half of Americans now pay no federal income tax - but they receive all government benefits just as if they had paid for, i.e., earned them.
Dennis PragerConservatives divide the world in terms of good and evil while liberals do it in terms of the rich and poor.
Dennis PragerWhen Jews left Judaism, they didn't stop being religious. They simply swapped God-based Judaism for godless secular humanism and leftism. For left-wing Jews, Judaism is their ethnicity; leftism is their religion.
Dennis PragerMost people who call themselves conservatives can't explain the American value system.
Dennis PragerIf your religion doesn't teach you the difference between good and evil, your religion is worse than useless.
Dennis PragerI just don't understand why the idea of the universe creating itself is a rational one
Dennis PragerObviously, the issue for the Left isn't aging white males; it is conservatives, whether they are young or old, white or nonwhite, male or female. If female aborigines were conservative, the Left would have a problem with female aborigines.
Dennis PragerI have known Tavis Smiley since the 1980s, when we both worked at the same radio station in Los Angeles. He is smart, and he is a gentleman who has accorded me great respect both on and off the air.
Dennis PragerThe welfare state is predicate don collecting money from today's workers in order to pay for those who paid in before them. But today's workers don't have enough money to sustain the scheme, and there are too few of them to do so. As a result, virtually every welfare state in Europe, and many American states, like California are going broke.
Dennis PragerMen need rule books. Women want men to intuit what they want. And only about 2% of men can do that, and most of them are not heterosexual.
Dennis PragerEach of us owes it to our spouse, our children, our friends, to be as happy as we can be. And if you don't believe me, ask a child what it's like to grow up with an unhappy parent, or ask parents what they suffer if they have an unhappy child.
Dennis PragerThose indoctrinated by leftist thinking become largely incapable of making accurate moral judgments.
Dennis PragerAmerican troops around the globe are the greatest preservers of liberty and peace in the world.
Dennis PragerIf they [liberals] didn't believe we were mean spirited they couldn't stay liberal. They have to believe they mean better than us, but we don't have to believe that we mean better than them. We have to believe that we do better than them. We measure morality by what happens not what is intended.
Dennis PragerTo deny that human beings are filled with anti-social passions betrays a denial of reality and a lack of self-awareness. One has to be taught nonsense for a great many formative years to believe it.
Dennis PragerPolitical correctness is the the inability to state certain truths because they may offend certain people
Dennis PragerIf you want to know what you look like, look into a mirror. If you want to know how you think, you should write
Dennis PragerAmerica derives its laws from its Constitution. It derives its values from the Bible. We don't get inalienable rights from the Constitution; we get them from God.
Dennis PragerWhenever possible, the left and the Democrats have de-stigmatized irresponsible behavior.
