On this inaugural episode of the Ultimate Issues Hour, host Dennis Prager tackles the fundamental question: are people basically good, basically bad, or somewhere in between? He shares his own perspective, which lies somewhere in the middle, and explores the implications of this idea on our understanding of human nature and morality. With callers from across the country, Dennis delves into the complexities of this issue, discussing topics like the nature of sin, the role of free will, and the importance of personal responsibility. This thought-provoking conversation sets the stage for a series that will explore the ultimate questions of life.
