Prager H3: Per usual, callers set the agenda. Issues raised include: Is the purpose of hell to punish evil doers; what should you say to young person about to go off to college; will Republicans vote for Donald Trump if he gets the nomination; should women breastfeed in public.
Prager H2: A major new Harvard study confirms that friends are a key to happiness.
Highlights from the week of 3/7/2016
Prager H1: The media continues to report that Judge Garland, the President’s nominee for the Supreme Court, is a moderate and a centrist. Never mind that on every major issue he votes Left… There are many “staunch Conservatives.” Have you ever heard of a “staunch liberal”?… Is there an air of violence surrounding this Presidential campaign? Who is responsible?
Prager H3: There’s no DMV in South Sudan. This is Nicholas Kristoff’s argument for why Big Government is a good idea. Seriously. This is what passes as deep thinking on the Left… The government is adding new regulations to limit pain prescriptions. There’s a fear that people in pain are getting addicted to their pain killers. Can you imagine being in terrible pain and not able to get pain medication? What is more cruel than that?
Prager H2: Dennis talks to Stephen Prothero, professor of religion at Boston University, and a senior fellow at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History. His new book is Why Liberals Win the Culture Wars (Even When They Lose Elections).
Prager H1: The NY Times, LA Times and USAToday all describe Obama’s Supreme Court nominee, Merrick Garland, as “centrist.” But is that really an accurate description? Not if you look at his decisions… Another foolish academic study purports to predict support for Trump based on your parenting-style. Huh?
