Summary

How do you determine right from wrong, good from evil? Two perspectives are dominant: the Judeo-Christian view and the Leftist/Marxist approach. The first approach is the reason America has been such a remarkably good and decent society compared to all others—and Dennis explains why it remains crucial for maintaining a good society.

Hi everybody, Dennis Prager. Do you folks see Snoopy as Snoopy in the picture? I know Otto is

0:04.7

always. Snoopy's not. Maybe lower, I've made reference to Snoopy. I have no idea why Snoopy

0:10.2

joined me today, but there he is. And now you know Otto's brother. They're very, very close by the way.

0:20.5

It's not uncommon to find them together either snuggling or

0:26.8

one doing a major cleaning of the other's ear, which is a beautiful service on the part

0:35.5

of each of them. And they certainly take their time. They get somewhat obsessed actually

0:41.7

until one, the one who was having his ear cleaned finally wiggles away feeling I've had enough

0:50.8

of my ear rubbed for the day. I'm Dennis Prager, that's Otto, that's Snoopy, and the rest is history.

This is my fireside chat. What number is this? 152. 152. I say this very often, but I will repeat

1:11.8

therefore I find it amazing that we've done that many. I want to remind you that this I don't always

1:44.1

is also not time bound. So I strongly suggest that if you have the time and inclination to watch past

1:53.1

episodes of the fireside chat, this is a spontaneous way of my talking to you about what is on my mind

2:01.2

then taking questions about what is on your mind. Before anything I should note that this week on Friday

2:11.2

night is the holiest of the two holiest days are inaugurated of the Jewish calendar. It's the

2:20.4

Jewish New Year, which is Russia-Shanat, and then the 10th day, nine days later is the is Yonky

2:27.2

poor, the day of atonement, the holiest day. What I'm about to tell you is to me almost unbelievable

2:36.0

last year, I announced that the service that I conduct, I have been conducting services for the

2:43.6

Jewish I Holy Days for 13 years, 13 consecutive years, about 400 people attend. And if you see

2:56.7

what I did, you will actually hear me say, you know folks just don't know if everybody will be
