Summary

Fewer Americans than ever describe themselves as religious. Fewer follow a particular religion. This is not without consequence. Look around: does it seem like we are living in a more moral society?... How can we persuade people to take religion, and specifically the Bible, more seriously? Why, according to almost every study, are religious people happier than people who are not religious? Dennis has theories. So do callers. Issues raised include: does life have meaning without God; should all Americans see the atrocities that happened on October 7; what is the difference between joy and happiness.
