Constitution: Dennis Prager is Unpatriotic and Unamerican (morals, Creator, Darwin)

[rhb100]

Dennis Prager, speaking on the radio, on 7 December 2006 said our values are not found in the constitution. Well he has the right to have so little respect for the great American Constitution that he finds nothing in it that represents his values, but he certainly is not qualified to say what my values are. He is qualified to say that he does not value the freedoms and protections we get from the constitution but he is unqualified to say our values are not found in the constitution since many people with better morals and values than Dennis Prager do find their values in the constitution.

That Prager would go on the radio and pretend to be qualified to say what everyone's values are, makes you wonder if this guy has good sense.
I as a proud and patriotic supporter of the great American ideals of pure laissez-faire capitalism, human freedom, and private property rights have great respect for the constitution. I find my values represented in the constitution. I think those of us who are proud supporters of the constitution should recognize Dennis Prager as an unamerican and unpatriotic person.

Heady claims... how about a link? Thanks in advance.

[Radio Frequency X]

Dennis Prager? Who cares? He's a talkshow host isn't he? He isn't talking about your values, he is talking about his and his regular listeners.

Well, if it was on the radio today it may be too early to find a transcript.

I believe it may be a misunderstanding on the listener's part until I see one. It appears to me his stance is that America derived its values from the bible.

In the meantime this may shed some light:

Edit: For the record, I believe Mr. Prager is the antithesis of "unamerican and unpatriotic"
/just my opinion

"You don't have to be Christian to acknowledge that the Bible is the source of
America's values. Virtually every founder of this country knew that and
acknowledged it. "
This statement is an outright lie. Not a single founder knew that the Bible is
the source of America's values. Some may have been of this opinion but not a
single one knew it and there is no proof or even a convincing argument that any
founder held such opinion. The fact that all of our founding fathers were
non-believers is highly underestimated not overestimated. And where does this guy Prager get the qualifications to tell a proud, Anglo-Saxon, American
male that my values are derived from the Bible by saying America's values are
derived from the Bible. When he says America's values are derived from the Bible,
he is accusing me of having my values derived from the Bible. He is unqualified
to make this statement since he does not know the values that I a proud
pro-capitalistic Anglo-Saxon hold. My values are derived from my Anglo-Saxon
heritage including the works of Charles Darwin showing that man was not created in
the image of God, the works of the great pro-capitalistic economist, Adam Smith,
and the works of the great dynamicists, Isaac Newton. My values are not based on
Jewish mass murderer, Moses, or any of the other characters that the Jews
worship. I am proud that I am an Anglo-Saxon and not a Jew. Dennis
Prager is unqualified to tell me an Anglo-Saxon what my values are.

Dennis Prager also says at the same site, "America derives its laws from its
Constitution. It derives its values from the Bible. We don't get inalienable
rights from the Constitution; we get them from God. Which is exactly what the
signers of the Declaration of Independence wrote: We are endowed with inalienable
rights by our Creator ...".
This is an outright lie. The signers of the Declaration of Independence did not
write America derives its values from the Bible. They used the word rights which
has a totally different meaning than the word values. Also they used the word
Creator not the word God which has a totally and completely different meaning.
The word Creator means the process of evolution. The word God really has no clear
meaning. It is just a word religious maniacs repeat in a parrot like fashion
without having a clear, precise, and unambiguous definition of what it means.

Ouch. I'm sorry to hear that. Tell me is Mr. Prager the only Jew you as a proud Anglo Saxon dislike so much, or is it all of them?

[rhb100]

I have great admiration and respect for the late Milton Friedman. I think Milton Friedman is not only the greatest Jew who ever lived, I also think he is the greatest man who ever lived. He made great contributions to human freedom. I read his wonderful book, "Capitalism and Freedom", a long time ago and I have started to read it again. I have also read his other book, "Free to Choose", or something like that.

I also have great admiration for the late Ayn Rand. I think she was Jewish. I read her books, "Atlas Shrugged", and "The Virtues of Selfishness". She also contributed greatly to the cause of capitalism and human freedom.

These are two wonderful Jewish persons for whom I have great admiration and respect.

I also greatly admire Albert Einstein.

Prager is a disgrace to the Jewish people, an enemy of both human freedom and clear thinking.

[gnomon]

The only logical conclusion to draw from this recent "controversial" issue is that Dennis Prager is either
1) an idiot or
2) a tremendous entertainer.

Note that neither makes him unamerican since both of the options listed are common qualities among American public figures.

The next thing is to wait and see what other wonderful piece of absolute worthlessness we will obsess over.

[GeneCosta]

I wouldn't call him unAmerican or unpatriotic. Maybe uninformed?
