Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
If you’re shopping at Walmart because you believe it’s one of the last big chains with mainstream American values, you might want to rethink that idea. Walmart, which started in Arkansas, made its reputation as the chain that catered to regular Americans, the kind who eat meat, not vegan; the

No Safe Spaces skillfully, intelligently, and amusingly exposes the intellectual rot eating away at Free Speech in American higher education. Go see it! I went to see Adam Carolla’s and Dennis Prager’s No Safe Spaces this afternoon and I had just one problem with the movie: At a huge multiplex in

Charlotte Brontë would have forgiven Trump his Stormy Daniels’ sins, because she separated an individual’s personal sins from the way they treated others. In the wake of the Anderson Cooper/60 Minutes‘ interview with Stormy Daniels, there’s been something of a war raging (albeit politely) between Dennis Prager and Jonah Goldberg. The

Those who reject the Bible will always point to Biblical stories that seem cruel and unjust today. Dennis Prager gives context showing that they are wrong. Dennis Prager is back with another video, this time about the way in which Leftists misunderstand (whether deliberately or ignorantly) two Bible rules: The

Talking to my child and reading about a friends’ child, left me wondering whether it’s enough to believe in God without God also believing in you. For many decades, I’ve counted among my friends a married couple made up of two of the nicest, most decent people in the world.

I believe evil exists, but I fear I’ll miss it when it’s present or, worse, find evil where none exists. How do you define evil to avoid such mistakes? I was listening to Dennis Prager this morning (something I can do now that I signed up for Pragertopia, which has

From Trump’s epic response to Jay-Z, to Dennis Prager’s surprise admission, to Daniel Greenfield’s Leftist exposé, and more — there’s lots of brilliance here. Trump’s genius approach to Jay-Z’s “superbug” attack. I am getting wise to the ways of Trump. That’s why I know that the war into which he’s

Today, for the first time, I noticed striking differences between the Islamic and Judeo-Christian traditions involving both happiness and predestination. Daniel Greenfield wrote about the interview Chelsea Handler did with Kumail Nanjiani, the Muslim star of HBO’s “Silicon Valley.” He complained that popular culture fails to focus on what fun

With his usual acuity, Dennis Prager explains that true morality exists only if there is a God. Absent God, people just opine about what they like or dislike. The phrase “moral relativism” gets thrown around a lot. The Right things it’s bad; the Left thinks it’s good — indeed, that

The Progressives’ resistance to Trump’s indubitable Electoral College victory is highlighting the culture wars that have riven America. They have spent the last eight years building an alternative American model: Slavery is still the dominant cultural marker; America’s law enforcement officers are on a binge spree of mass slaughtering blacks;

When I grew up as Jewish girl in a Merry Christmas society, I said Merry Christmas right back. I’ve always loved Christmas in America. I love the songs, the lights, the colors, the good cheer, and I’ve always been grateful that I live in a country that happily and generously shares its

I just want to keep you all up-to-date about the great new posts (some of which are mine) that you can find today at WOW! Magazine, the new online magazine from the Watcher’s Council: The Bookworm Beat 9/6/16 — the “still coughing” edition and open thread School Attacks: Feeling Good

This post’s title, of course, is facetious. Dennis Prager is entirely unaware of my blog (and, no, I’m not complaining about that fact). I have noticed over the years, though, that Prager will often write a post that says what I had earlier blogged about, although he always says it better
Continue readingDennis Prager spoke recently at a Christians United For Israel event. (CUFI is a wonderful organization, bless its existence.) This five-minute excerpt starts with Prager discussing the fact that, unlike previous evil regimes, ISIS boasts about its horrors, because doing so isn’t embarrassing, it’s good advertising. From that starting point,
