  • Ep 32 | Dealing With Death & How to Build Your Own Culture of Life

    13/08/2019 Duración: 02h23min

    Why does the number of mentally ill individuals in America just keep climbing? Who said, “If you will not have God, you should pay your respects to Hitler and Stalin."? Let’s talk truthfully about mass shootings. First of all, unlike familicides or felony-related homicides, the perpetrators are almost always suicidal. Why are they also nearly always white men?  Yes, they mostly involve firearms, but let’s seriously explore all the other commonalities they possess which are so very politically incorrect. When was anything the government banned removed from society? Alcohol during prohibition? No! Drugs for the past 40 years? No! But banning guns will work? Really? Have you heard of the famous Elephants’ Graveyard in Africa? Why is nature so private about death? Where are all the dead pigeons in New York?  Is death a technical problem or a philosophical problem? Together, we discover the latest work being done to defeat death. Why exactly does death disturb us?  How has growth in crime paralleled the growth in

  • Ep 31 | Join Susan Lapin & Me Over Breakfast As We Make Our Way Through Today's Big Issues

    03/08/2019 Duración: 01h01min

    Rabbi Daniel and Susan Lapin converse over breakfast about the General Patton Principle. This explains why the most effective person to solve a particular problem may not be the most gentle, refined and polite person.  General Patton and his 3rd Army beat back the Germans at the Battle of the Bulge in January 1945, but his tirades were often vulgar and profane. Yet, not only did the men under his command love him but so did their mothers because they knew that he really cared about their sons.  The very best doctor to perform a dangerous surgery might possibly be a serial adulterer but no normal person, no matter how religious, would spurn this doctor in favor of a less competent surgeon because of his marital ethics. Obviously, we were responding to two angry letters attacking us for our enthusiastic support for President Trump’s re-election.  We emphasize how this Patton Principle applies in many areas equally applicable to the lives of listeners in Africa or South America who might care nothing about Ameri

  • Ep 29 | Spiritual Strategies for Income Increase

    20/07/2019 Duración: 01h27min

    Do you know the name of your most valuable employee? Do you know the name of the person most to blame for your problems and predicaments? Do you know the name of the person you are most responsible for educating and improving? Here's a clue: All three people carry the same name. Your physical characteristics are things like: height, skin color, hairstyle, and body type. Your spiritual characteristics are things like: integrity, resourcefulness, optimism, resilience, imagination, fluency and eloquence. Unless you are a swimsuit model, your spiritual attributes can make you far more money than your physical ones. So how do you improve them?

  • Ep 28 | There Really Are No Poor People In America! Really!

    13/07/2019 Duración: 01h36min

    So, there was your Rabbi struggling with what to name this episode. At first, I thought of calling it “Even Poor People Deserve Compassion”. Then, I thought we’ll call it “Especially, Poor People Deserve Compassion”. Then, I thought about “We Love Poor People”. As you can see, the ideas were flowing fast and furious, but I was worried about appearing to lack compassion—one of the very worst sins in today’s secular theology. So, then I came up with “Poor People Means Virtuous People”. If you want to know why, in the end, I chose the title I did use, listen on. Now, for those of you who plan to write to me in righteous indignation, howling in protest at this podcast; I will save you time and trouble. Just cut and paste from what follows: “Doesn’t your faith command you to care for the poor? How dare you deny their existence! You’re such an ignoramus, you don’t you even know that over 30 million Americans live below the poverty line. I suppose you think it’s their fault. That’s called blaming the victim, you hea

  • Ep 27 | Hey Girl! Do You Really Want To Be Some Boy’s Girlfriend?

    06/07/2019 Duración: 01h19min

    If you liked being a happy warrior, well, I’ve upped the ante. It’s now a little harder. It’s easy to laugh when I speak about your rabbi (that would be me) revealing how the world REALLY works, but the truth is that learning how the world REALLY works and adapting to it is immensely painful. Having our illusions shattered is always painful; the slogan is easier than the reality. How the world REALLY works is quite different from the ways in which many of us wish it worked. Many fondly labor under the delusion that we live in a secular age in a secular world. Nothing could be further from the truth. I explain why I feel nothing but compassion towards former secularists who are having their entire worldviews obliterated. Secularism is the tired expression of yesterday’s cultural dinosaurs whose perception of reality is being pulverized. Only anti-scientific secular dinosaurs would believe dogmatically that a man can become a woman. Only tired and aging secularists would believe that it costs nothing if the gov

  • Ep 26 | Why Keeping Illegal (or Legal) Immigrants Out of Your Country Is The Perfectly Moral Choice

    30/06/2019 Duración: 01h56min

    Never use the word “fair”.  The political landscape of many countries is changing because citizens are asking their governments, “What have you done to our country?”  Please allow me to teach you the hierarchy of moral obligations.  What does the Biblical dictum “Love your neighbor like yourself” actually mean?  I tell you about  two important books; but for your own health, tell nobody, not even your closest friends about them.  Many secular liberals speak of compassion but practice very little of it themselves.  Boasting of your commitment to “Women’s Rights” while betraying your wife.  Caring less about those closest to you. The reprehensible evil of government taxing the legacy you bequeath to your children. Is it unseemly for me to care so much more about my children than I care about your children?  Are you willing to pull the trigger on military reprisals? Why the state desires to educate your child. How political propaganda changes your mind. Why it is moral for any state to view its citizens as more

  • Ep 25 | Terrible Ideas Will Nearly Always Produce Terrifying Times

    22/06/2019 Duración: 45min

    You’ll love taking this boat trip with your rabbi.  The one big lie that, if you fall for it, will utterly distort your vision of your own life.  Do you know the one colossal difference that forever distinguishes humans from animals? Clue: Progressives hate it.  A few fun fire facts especially for happy warriors.  Why do so many feel guilty about using a lot of energy?  The difference that fire made to Adam and Einstein and why your electricity bill has skyrocketed.  You’ll love this poem about a boat trip.  Resolving a perplexing and prophetic Bible passage about…..batteries!

  • Ep 24 | Perhaps I Am No Cuddlier Than a Cactus But I Do Tell You The Truth!

    15/06/2019 Duración: 01h13min

    Responding to a thoughtful listener’s letter attacking my views on marriage as “ridiculous”.  Would we stand for a system that forces young people to undergo at least four years of religious indoctrination before getting on with their lives?  Would we cruelly withhold jobs and employment from anyone brave enough to try and evade this brutal system of compulsory madrassas? Would we allow imams, clerics, and priests to impose their destructive dogmas on young minds?  Of course not, right?  But we do just that!   Secular Fundamentalism is a religion; it’s a militant faith, a community of shared values, heresies and sacraments. Today’s modern secular fundamentalism has its fanatics and its saints and we force millions of tomorrow’s leaders into bowing down to its idols.  The power of numbers over stories.  Making important life decisions with our heads and never with our hearts.  How to decide just who among us gets the rare and desirable resources we all covet.

  • Ep 23 | Why Progressives Hate The Wife Who Preaches “Look Nice For Your Husband"

    08/06/2019 Duración: 01h45min

    I respond to a thoughtful listener’s letter charging me with ‘bias’ against Islam. After the Nazi surrender in May 1945, German youths didn’t inflict terror on London and New York to avenge the destruction of Dresden and the bombing of Berlin. After the surrender on the battleship USS Missouri in September 1945, Japanese youths didn’t form terror teams against America to avenge Hiroshima and Nagasaki. So why, for decades, have Muslim youths been committing atrocities against western civilians for perceived wrongs going back to the 17th century? Why do many so-called “accident-prone” children bring painful incidents upon themselves? Most Germans have allowed their government to import over a million young men bent on dominating Germany and destroying it. Recall what Russian soldiers did to German women in 1944 and 1945. Learn how men and women react differently to “pointless” telephone conversations and the scariest words any man will ever hear. Why, in this age, does belief trump biology and feelings trump fa

  • Ep 22 | Your Rabbi Answers Life’s Most Perplexing Puzzles, Problems, Predicaments & Paradoxes

    01/06/2019 Duración: 02h05min

    Why does liberalism and home shopping dominate television while conservatism mostly finds its home on radio? Why is liberalism the creed of emotionalism? Who had done more good for the world - Calcutta’s Mother Theresa or Amazon’s Jeff Bezos? Why is our balance mechanism found in our ears? Aggressiveness vs modesty - Why do men and women’s biological structures reflect these differences? Newspapers never used to show pictures of corpses - why do they now do so? Why was it okay for Planned Parenthood to sell the body parts of babies they killed, but a fully grown adult may not sell one of his kidneys? Why do doctors not simply vote cancer out of existence just as they did with other disorders? Why is political liberalism often equated with moral virtue but conservatism never is? Why are limits on political campaign finance immoral? Why does government want to force people out of their cars and into buses and trains? Why is the question of whether we evolved or were created not a scientific question but a life

  • Ep 21 | We Bond Powerfully Through Both Marital & Financial Relationships: How They Differ

    25/05/2019 Duración: 01h58min

    Why does adultery inflict greater pain and suffering than corporate closures and job loss? In Governmental Indoctrination Centers (GIC’s), formerly known as public schools, little children are prematurely sexualized through a propaganda campaign known as Sex Education or Sex Ed. The argument is that children are “going to do it anyway” so we should teach them how to do it safely. Now, your Rabbi asks, let’s also have 'Gun Ed' since we know that children are “going to do it anyway”, that is play with firearms, we should teach them how to do it safely. Here's why this will never happen in your lifetime. When a policeman shoots a black man, without knowing anything else we instantly know that he did it because he was a racist. When a homosexual is attacked in a bar during a drug deal gone bad, everyone knows without doubt that those attacking him did so out of their hate for homosexuals. But when a fervent Muslim, steeped in the theology of jihad, murders a westerner while yelling "Allahu Akbar", authorities spe

  • Ep 20 | For Sale! Your Own Roadmap to Reality. Priceless But Free

    20/05/2019 Duración: 02h15min

    The first time in human history that children knew more than their parents and how parents evade their responsibility to their children.  The 25th word in the Bible, religious holidays and modern science.  Surprising secrets of the casino’s roulette wheel. How humans got to planet earth.  If you tell me your answer to this one question, I would know how you feel about wealth & poverty, marriage, taxation, public education and mental health. Why most societal destruction and violence is perpetrated by single males.  What the name of Israel’s national airline, El Al, means. Amazing story of the discovery of microbes. Why water is approximately 70% of people and also 70% of earth’s surface.  The world’s most successful treatment for alcoholism.  Why do some people risk their lives to save/help a stranger? How do placebos work? How a rabbi with the same last name as mine cured a war veteran with a paralyzed arm.  A strange conversation with a cow.  How to discover whether you are a consumer or a creator; a maker

  • Ep 19 | The Terrible Tragedy of Discovering the Truth Too Late

    11/05/2019 Duración: 01h09min

    A tragedy is something that causes suffering, distress and destruction. A terrible tragedy is a tragedy that could have easily been prevented. Ancient Jewish wisdom can prevent those tragedies. When people marry without knowledge of how the world REALLY works, it’s usually just as tragic as when a pilot takes off in an airplane type for which he’s had inadequate training. When people choose careers or start families without any knowledge of the ages, it is nearly always a terrible tragedy. It didn’t have to happen and it is almost impossible to repair. Young people are vulnerable to immoral professors spewing propaganda partially because they have no knowledge of the ages. If a 23-year-old techie tells me that super-injection is now possible in single material semiconductors, I am astounded at his knowledge and assume that he’s right. If that same individual tells me that men can become women or that the profit motive is obnoxious, I weep at his folly. If we lived for 1,000 years, by the time we reached middl

  • Ep 18 | Find Your Way to God, Gold & Greatness Using a Microscope, Never a Telescope

    04/05/2019 Duración: 44min

    Is everybody’s work equally valuable and important? How can you tell the difference? I respect all humans who behave consistently with being created in the image of God, but do I respect all career choices, occupations, and professions equally? No, of course not, and neither do you. There are several key things to bear in mind when choosing a career path. What attributes does sprinter Usain Bolt share with an oil rig worker and a dentist? What does a professor of race and gender studies share with a graffiti artist? A surprising number of people think that the moon landing in 1969 was a hoax, but what actual benefits did it yield? Do you know what a black hole is? Do you care? Do you know what a dental implant is? Do you care? Most things you care about came about because of microscopes, not telescopes. Why do you probably respect mechanics and musicians more than astrophysicists and artists? Lastly, you should be finding your connection to God through an ear rather than through a galaxy.

  • Ep 17 | How You Can Identify Your Personal Egypt & How You Can Escape It

    27/04/2019 Duración: 47min

    Many of today’s problems are the result of bad choices you made yesterday. They put you in your own Egypt. Want to see the mugshot of your worst enemy? Easy — look on your driver’s license. It’s relatively easy to conceive a male baby: It only takes a minute or two. It’s a little harder to give birth to a male baby: it can take several hours. But it is a whole lot harder to turn a male baby into a son. That takes years. It takes years of knowing what to do and doing it. Societies that fail to produce sons, but rather, only produce male human beings is a doomed society. Sons come into existence only after years of fathers and mothers working together. Lessons from Passover… “When your son will ask you…”. Discovering the name of the person most responsible for your failures and disappointments and turning things around is crucial.

  • Ep 16 | Untold Stories Surrounding the Notre Dame Fire: Muslims? An Ancient Curse?

    20/04/2019 Duración: 01h07min

    Although riots slightly damaged Notre Dame Cathedral in the 16th century and the infamous French Revolution inflicted a little damage in the 18th, this fire was the worst damage the beautiful cathedral has ever sustained. In reporting on the Notre Dame fire, the news media ignored the many thousands of attacks, desecrations and vandalizations of European churches every year. Yes, thousands! And almost all perpetrated by Middle Eastern or North African immigrants or their children. There was even an attempt to blow up Notre Dame with a car bomb in 2016. The convicted Islamic terrorist, Inez Madani, was sentenced to eight years in jail just 72 hours before the Notre Dame fire broke out. There was another big fire right in front of Notre Dame on June 17th, 1242. People burned about 25 wagon loads of irreplaceable Hebrew manuscripts. That fire burned for two days. Is there a connection? Catholic-Jewish relations back then weren’t what they are today. Happily, times have changed. Also, Airbus is almost a part of E

    There is a real reason why airlines have become so much more punctual in keeping to their schedules than they used to be. Has global warming expanded the American continent, pushing Los Angeles and New York further apart? Amazon and the internet are not the only culprits killing off suburban shopping malls; a far more destructive force is imperiling the very existence of your local shopping mall. Is it true that atheism is growing and spreading like wildfire, consuming Bible-based Judeo-Christian faiths in its insatiable lust for secularizing the world? I am surprised you even ask! But I have the answer for you. One thing that is definitely increasing is the number of young Americans taking anti-depressant drugs. Finally, does secular liberalism make societies rot?

  • Ep 14 | Hey Brides! Both is Best, but if You Must Choose, Money Beats Love

    06/04/2019 Duración: 01h03min

    Men who marry moneyed maidens hoping to get their hands on her wealth deserve what they get, which most times won’t be good. But girls marrying guys with gold is quite different. Men who make money reveal much of their positive masculine desirability whereas a lady’s bank balance reveals nothing of her feminine desirability. Why do men in uniform fascinate females? Also, learn why, in 1970, AMC paid $75 Million for little more than rights to the Jeep car name. Other topics include: Yin & Yang, Grand Coulee Dam, and why weddings happen after men propose to women (not the reverse). The Beatles lied in 1967 when they sang “All You Need is Love”. The real meaning of the Biblical jewelry when he gave her gold at that desert well where Rebecca was betrothed to Isaac, sight unseen, and the future of Israel was assured. When he says, “I love you”, does he mean it the same way as when he says, “I love roast turkey”? A great Russian novelist accurately wrote “Money is coined liberty”. A financially ambitious man is far

  • Ep 13 | My Two Great Gifts to You: No More Bad Decisions & No More Procrastination

    30/03/2019 Duración: 01h03min

    Many in the Bush family (sorry, I mean dynasty) with their long association with the Republican Party, admitted that they voted for Hillary Clinton in November 2016.  So did dozens of other well-known journalists, pundits, policy-wonks, and political-hangers-on who had long been famous as conservative Republicans.  All these intelligent people decided that Donald Trump was so terrible that Hillary and the four more years of Obamaville that she’d bring to the country would be a preferable fate for America.  Some have now admitted that they were wrong.  Many have not.  My question: What explains how intelligent people can make really stupid decisions?  I ask you to recall your own bad decisions and we'll analyze how they happen.  In this show, we allow ancient Jewish wisdom to explain how easily this can happen to you, how to recognize it in yourself and how to defend against it.  Now for the most valuable part of this show: the Biblical secret for overcoming procrastination and how to use it in your life.  You
