Thank-you. We are subscribers. Mr. Paeger is on during Rush, so getting his emails and links to his videos is very convenient. I met him and talked to him. He is one of my living heroes. We always turn to him for moral clarity. We can’t stand going to the local temple, so Mr. Praeger is our “rabbi.”
My husband is Jewish (and I am Catholic) and every day we pray for those who pray to God. Listening to his show is like being in a conservative shul.
His words of wisdom should really be offered more on FR> (Hint, hint, self)
America's Founders recognized and acknowledged this belief over an over, as is stated so succinctly by James Madison, as quoted below:
"A Memorial and Remonstrance. . . ." - James Madison (Excerpted)Jefferson summarized the philosophy of the Declaration of Independence in these words:"Because we hold it for a fundamental and undeniable truth, “that Religion or the duty which we owe to our Creator and the Manner of discharging it, can be directed only by reason and conviction, not by force or violence.” "The Religion then of every man must be left to the conviction and conscience of every man; and it is the right of every man to exercise it as these may dictate. This right is in its nature an unalienable right. It is unalienable; because the opinions of men, depending only on the evidence contemplated by their own minds, cannot follow the dictates of other men. It is unalienable also; because what is here a right towards men, is a duty towards the Creator. It is the duty of every man to render to the Creator such homage, and such only, as he believes to be acceptable to him. This duty is precedent both in order of time and degree of obligation, to the claims of Civil Society. Before any man can be considered as a member of Civil Society, he must be considered as a subject of the Governor of the Universe: And if a member of Civil Society, who enters into any subordinate Association, must always do it with a reservation of his duty to the general authority; much more must every man who becomes a member of any particular Civil Society, do it with a saving of his allegiance to the Universal Sovereign. We maintain therefore that in matters of Religion, no man’s right is abridged by the institution of Civil Society, and that Religion is wholly exempt from its cognizance." - James Madison, "Memorial and Remonstrance. . . ." (excerpt)
"The God who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time: the hand of force may destroy, but cannot disjoin them." - Thomas JeffersonAmerica's Founders concluded that life, liberty, and the laws to protect them were "Creator-endowed," and were, therefore, unalienable. The philosophy capsulated in their Declaration of Independence flowed out of that fundamental recognition.
Praeger is great.
It bears mentioning that the only person in history who was able to perfectly obey the 10 commandments is Jesus. He was killed for his trouble.
That’s why Jesus is our lawyer in God’s court. Jesus reconciles us each individually to God. Also Jesus reconciles God to us each individually. This is a big deal.

I have been visiting a McDonalds in Spartanburg SC. Suspended over the drink dispenser area are replicas of the two stones with the Ten Commandments”
