Summary

Have you ever found yourself submitting to emotional blackmail? Have you ever felt that to love God means being docile towards domineering people? Have you ever felt that the main reason to try and gain wealth is to give it away? Well, if so, you REALLY need a rabbi! Specifically me, the host of the Rabbi Daniel Lapin Show because these and other wrong beliefs are becoming more and more accepted. We start with a young woman being pressured by a man and then explore a famous “ethicist” (a profession I have less regard for than I do for barnacle scrapers of the Swiss navy) proclaiming how rich people are immoral. Who does have a right to your money? This show tries to show you how the world REALLY works, as you know. In other words, we want you to gain a coherent world view. But the right word is Weltanschauung. What does that mean? ‘Weltanschauung’ is, I am afraid, a specifically German notion, which it would be difficult to translate into a foreign language. If I attempt to give you a definition of the word, it can hardly fail to strike you as inept. By Weltanschauung, then, I mean an intellectual construction which gives a unified solution of all the problems of our existence in virtue of a comprehensive hypothesis, a construction, therefore, in which no question is left open and in which everything in which we are interested finds a place. It is easy to see that the possession of such a Weltanschauung is one of the ideal wishes of mankind. When one believes in such a thing, one feels secure in life, one knows what one ought to strive after, and how one ought to organize one’s emotions and interests to the best purpose. (Sigmund Freud 35th lecture on psychoanalysis) Being a happy warrior means NEVER allowing yourself to be a tennis ball floating down the gutter of life. Read more about why counter-intuitive ideas about dating make for better marriages. https://rabbidaniellapin.com/product/ten-commandments-instant-download/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome, welcome all you happy warriors to the Rabbi Daniel Lapin show.

This is your show where your rabbi reveals how the world

really works. Now, why do I call you happy warriors? Why is it that most of the people who are most committed to this show are happy warriors?

0:43.0

And I sometimes give an introduction in which I explain what a happy warrior is in some length.

0:52.2

But I will say this, warrior, because you are constantly engaged in a struggle.

1:00.3

You haven't signed out. You're not missing in action. You're not AWOL. You're not away without leave.

1:07.7

You are not retired. You are in the battle. The battle for what? Everything.

1:14.5

If you have a garden, you're in a battle to stop the weeds taking over. If you have a business,

1:21.0

you're in a battle for keeping the business profitable and growing it. If you have a body, you're in a battle to make sure

that entropy doesn't take over your body and make you slow and fat. And it is like that. Life is a

thrilling, it's an exciting, it's a challenging battle every day. We pit ourselves

1:49.0

against dark and malign forces that resist every one of our attempts to make our life

better. And that's the world in which we were placed.

2:03.6

A world in which we have the opportunity to go to war every day

2:09.6

and an opportunity to take thrill and excitement in the small victories we win one after the other little by little each little victory

2:23.2

making the next one a little bit easier and making the overall struggles and battles more

likely to be one in the achievements and accomplishments more sweet.

2:38.2

And so, yes, we are warriors and we're happy because it's wonderful and exciting and thrilling

2:45.5

to be inside of a battle of that kind.
