As often is the case, I disagree with "deep" Dennis.

But that's because I believe in the Torah — all of it.

People are born sinners, not neutral.

I attended Jewish religious schools (yeshivas) until the age of 18, and aside from being taught that moral rules come from God rather than from personal or world opinion, this was the greatest difference between my education and those who attended public and private secular schools. They learned that their greatest struggles were with society, and I learned that the greatest struggle was with me, and my natural inclinations to laziness, insatiable appetites and self-centeredness.

If he had included sinfullness wouldn't you have been in accord with this point of Pragers?

I thought that he was remarkably right on.
