They mock the Bible because it conflicts with their g0d, The “All Powerful Gubmint”.

A lot of content at prageru is good. A lot of it is questionable tripe.

Sorry, PragerU. You’re not perfect. None of us are

This is an excellent article.

The biblical view is that people are not basically good.

*********************************************************

Man is created in the image of God and indeed is good. Sin, which has infected all men is bad and separates us from God. That’s why we need a savior. His name is Jesus Christ.

Liberals are at war with anything that rebukes the Religion of Liberalism: Humanism. Humanism believes that humans are entirely adequate to direct their own steps. It says humans don't need a god or a bible other than what they, as individuals, want to do.

It's popped up throughout history, but every culture that embraced it has failed. Liberals are too obtuse to learn that fact, however.

I saw it with the 60s generation. An example was a song, "It's your thing. Do what you want to do."

That was the beginning of our end.

If America will survive, we must put ourselves back under God through Jesus Christ, with His holy word as our sole guide. If not, we're staring into the abyss.

“Because the left see themselves as God.”


Right out of Genesis 3:5! Thus the Leftoids demand:

“Thou shalt have no other gods before Me.”

The Leftoids have a 180 opposite demand from Exodus 20:2 and Deuteronomy 5:6!

We are to worship the almighty “collective”... and no other!

The left believes it can create its own reality through the passage of manmade laws. The Bible teaches that we are limited by natural law.

Thus upsets the left.

The attempt is to remove all boundaries. That is the definition of lawlessness. I heard a parable of a thief that came into the night and invaded a house. He was caught and driven out. He came back later with seven of his friends to defile the house because if he made it much worse, then his crimes would be acceptable and he would never be driven out. The boundaries that are being erased are borders of countries, borders of sexual identity, borders of morality, etc. In other words, Black is white and white is black - indistinguishable. Isaiah 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

“The left-wing view is that man is just another part of nature.”

There is a significant faction on the left that regards man as a parasite upon “nature”.

When Dennis Prager talks about the worldview of the Bible, I assume he only talking about the Old Testament, since the worldview of the New Testament is that he is going to Hell for eternity.

The crucufy crowd did the same. Nothing new. It is the same people.
We are still alive because the majority of churches have compromised The Bible... embraced the authority of government and man instead.
This will not last, as they require complete submission to their ideology.

Seventy five years ago this poster showed who “THE ENEMY” was, the arm with the swastika stabbing a Bible with a bayonet.

Today the Bible is the enemy to be destroyed. Sad times indeed.

I like Prager. I was up at 3 am listening to his radio show. Of course I’ll be tired all day, but I enjoyed his show.

“Man is created in the image of God and indeed is good.”

Man fell. People are not basically good. That is one reason to limit power in government.
