Many people today think the Bible, the most influential book in world history, is not only outdated but irrelevant, irrational, and even immoral.

This explanation of the Book of Genesis, the first book of the Bible, demonstrates clearly and powerfully that the opposite is true. The Bible remains profoundly relevant--both to the great issues of our day and to each individual life. It is the greatest moral guide and source of wisdom ever written.

Do you doubt the existence of God because you think believing in God is irrational? This book will give you many reasons to rethink your doubts. Do you think faith and science are in conflict? You won't after reading this commentary on Genesis. Do you come from a dysfunctional family? It may comfort you to know that every family discussed in Genesis was highly dysfunctional!

The title of this commentary is The Rational Bible because its approach is entirely reason-based. The reader is never asked to accept anything on faith alone. In Dennis Prager's words, If something I write is not rational, I have not done my job.

The Rational Bible is the fruit of Dennis Prager's forty years of teaching the Bible--whose Hebrew grammar and vocabulary he has mastered--to people of every faith and no faith at all. On virtually every page, you will discover how the text relates to the contemporary world in general and to you personally. His goal: to change your mind--and, as a result, to change your life.

From the bestselling authors of The Nine Questions People Ask About Judaism, a compelling discussion of the dangerous rise in antisemitism during the twenty-first century.

The very word Jew continues to arouse passions as does no other religious, national, or political name. Why have Jews been the object of the most enduring and universal hatred in history? Why did Hitler consider murdering Jews more important than winning World War II? Why has the United Nations devoted more time to tiny Israel than to any other nation on earth?

In this seminal study, Dennis Prager and Joseph Telushkin attempt to uncover and understand the roots of antisemitism--from the ancient world to the Holocaust to the current crisis in the Middle East. Why the Jews? offers new insights and unparalleled perspectives on some of the most recent, pressing developments in the contemporary world, including:

-The replicating of Nazi antisemitism in the Arab world
-The pervasive anti-Zionism/antisemitism on university campuses
-The rise of antisemitism in Europe
-Why the United States and Israel are linked in the minds of antisemites

Clear, persuasive, and thought-provoking, Why the Jews? is must reading for anyone who seeks to understand the unique role of the Jews in human history.

Is the Bible, the most influential book in world history, still relevant?

Why do people dismiss it as being irrelevant, irrational, immoral, or all of these things?

This explanation of the Book of Deuteronomy, the fifth book of the Bible, will demonstrate how it remains profoundly relevant--both to the great issues of our day and to each individual life.

Do you doubt the existence of God because you think believing in God is irrational? This book will cause you to reexamine your doubts.

The title of this commentary is The Rational Bible because its approach is entirely reason-based. The reader is never asked to accept anything on faith alone. In Dennis Prager's words, If something I write is not rational, I have not done my job.

Dennis Prager has put together one of the most stunning commentaries in modern times on the most profound document in human history. It's a must-read that every person, religious and non-religious, should buy and peruse every night before bed. It'll make you think harder, pray more ardently, and understand your civilization better. -- Ben Shapiro, host of The Ben Shapiro Show

Dennis Prager's commentary on Exodus will rank among the greatest modern Torah commentaries. That is how important I think it is. And I am clearly not alone... It might well be on its way to becoming the most widely read Torah commentary of our time--and by non-Jews as well as by Jews. -- Rabbi Joseph Telushkin, bestselling author of Jewish Literacy

Why do so many people think the Bible, the most influential book in world history, is outdated? Why do our friends and neighbors - and sometimes we ourselves - dismiss the Bible as irrelevant, irrational, immoral, or all of these things? This explanation of the Book of Exodus, the second book of the Bible, will demonstrate that the Bible is not only powerfully relevant to today's issues, but completely consistent with rational thought.

Do you think the Bible permitted the trans-Atlantic slave trade? You won't after reading this book.

Do you struggle to love your parents? If you do, you need this book.

Do you doubt the existence of God because belief in God is irrational? This book will give you reason after reason to rethink your doubts.

The title of this commentary is, The Rational Bible because its approach is entirely reason-based. The reader is never asked to accept anything on faith alone. As Prager says, If something I write does not make rational sense, I have not done my job.

Dennis Prager, author of the bestselling Rational Bible commentaries, turns to the Haggadah, the book used for the most widely celebrated Jewish ritual, the Passover Seder. (Like most Haggadahs, the Rational Passover Haggadah is printed in the Hebrew format, reading right to left.) Equally valuable for religious and non-religious Jews, as well as non-Jews, Prager's rich commentary is filled with insights that the reader will ponder for a lifetime.

The Rational Haggadah includes the Hebrew text for the Seder side by side with the English translation, making this a complete and fulfilling guide to the Passover ritual.

The most important words ever written are the Ten Commandments. These words changed the world when they were first presented at Mt. Sinai to Israelites, and they are changing it now. They are the foundation stones of Western Civilization.

Given their staggering importance, you would think that all societies, and certainly our educational and religious institutions, would be intent on studying them closely. Sadly, this is not the case. Our schools ignore them and our churches and synagogues take them for granted. But here's a simple test: Who among us can even name all of the Ten Commandments? And even among those who can name them, how many can explain them in a way that makes sense to the modern eye and ear?

If you are a person of faith, this book will strengthen it; if you are agnostic it will force you to rethink your doubts; if you're atheist, it will test your convictions. For people who have thought little about the Ten Commandments, as well as for those who have a sophisticated understanding of them, it will be a revelation.

That's a lot to ask of a little book, but the only thing that's little here is the length. The ideas are very big.

Conservative radio host and syndicated columnist Dennis Prager provides a bold, sweeping look at the future of civilization with Still the Best Hope, and offers a strong, cogent argument for why basic American values must triumph in a dangerously uncertain world. Humanity stands at a crossroads, and the only alternatives to the American Trinity of liberty, natural rights, and the melting-pot ideal of national unity are Islamic totalitarianism, European democratic socialism, capitalist dictatorship, or global chaos if we should fail. America is Still the Best Hope, as this eminently sensible, profoundly inspiring volume so powerfully proves.

In this unique blend of self-help and moral philosophy, perfect for fans of Gretchen Rubin's The Happiness Project or Dan Harris's 10% Happier, talk-radio host Dennis Prager shows us that happiness isn't just a value--it's a moral obligation.

When you ask people about their most cherished values, happiness is always at the top of the list. In this enduring happiness manifesto, Prager examines how happiness not only makes us better people, but has an effect on the lives of everyone around us--providing them with a positive environment in which to thrive and be happy themselves.

Achieving happiness won't be easy, though: to Prager, it requires a continuing process of counting your blessings and giving up any expectations that life is supposed to be wonderful. Can we decide to be satisfied with what we have? he asks. A poor man who can make himself satisfied with his portion will be happier than a wealthy man who does not allow himself to be satisfied. Prager echoes other political commentators in complaining that too many people today see themselves as victims; he submits that the only way to achieve your desires is to take responsibility for your life rather than blaming others.

If you're willing to put some thought into achieving a happier outlook, you will find plenty to mull over in Happiness Is a Serious Problem.

What are the two great lies of the 20th century?

Is there a solution to evil?

What matters more, blood or love?

Can a good man go to a striptease show?

Do you think you have the answers? ...Think a second time.

Dennis Prager, theologian and philosopher turned talk-show host, is one of the most brilliant and compelling voices in America today. His extraordinarily popular radio show with the signature sign-off, Think a second time, coupled with his own biweekly newsletter, has firmly established him as a fixture in intellectual communities nationwide. In Think a Second Time, Prager blends a rigorous and scholarly education with utterly original thinking on current events. From the dangers of idealism to the roots of extremism to his thoughts on God and an afterlife, Prager offers challenging answers to up-to-the-minute questions: Should a single woman have a child? Why don't good homes always produce good children? Is America really racist? Why does the Holocaust not negate the existence of God? Now, with an entirely new section on the precedent-setting Baby Richard custody case and an exploration of the issue of blood versus love, Prager continues to demonstrate his ability to draw clear moral lines in the sands of our very troubled times.

Dennis Prager, author of the bestselling Rational Bible commentaries, turns to the Haggadah, the book used for the most widely celebrated Jewish ritual, the Passover Seder. (Like most Haggadahs, the Rational Passover Haggadah is printed in the Hebrew format, reading right to left.) Equally valuable for religious and non-religious Jews, as well as non-Jews, Prager's rich commentary is filled with insights that the reader will ponder for a lifetime.

The Rational Haggadah includes the Hebrew text for the Seder side by side with the English translation, making this a complete and fulfilling guide to the Passover ritual.

The classic and essential guide for the educated, skeptical, and searching Jew, or for the non-Jew who wants to understand the meaning of Judaism.If you have ever wondered what being born Jewish should mean to you; if you want to find out more about the nature of Judaism, or explain it to a friend; if you are thinking about how Judaism can connect with the rest of your life--this is the first book you should own. It poses, and thoughtfully addresses, questions like these: - Can one doubt God's existence and still be a good Jew? - Why do we need organized religion? - Why shouldn't I intermarry? - What is the reason for dietary laws? - How do I start practicing Judaism? Concisely and engagingly, authors Dennis Prager and Joseph Telushkin present Judaism as the rational, moral alternative for contemporary man or woman.

His goal: to change your mind - and then change your life.

In Atheism Kills, Barak Lurie exposes the horrors of a world without God. Contrary to the mantra we've heard time and time again that religion is responsible for more deaths than anything else, it is in fact the absence of God which has killed-in obscene numbers. Ever since atheism first assumed government control in the French Revolution, it has done nothing but kill. Atheism has killed through its many deputies: progressivism, eugenics, fascism, and communism. Lurie shows that it was the godlessness in each of these ideologies that killed hundreds of millions. But atheism doesn't just kill lives. It kills purpose, free will, beauty, compassion, a sense of the past and future, creativity, and freedom itself. Atheism offers only the horrors of chaos and totalitarianism. The world misplaces its focus on Radical Islam as the greatest threat to civilization. As horrible as it is, it is doing nothing and having no sense of self which are the true enemies. It was our will to fight and sense of mission that overcame fascism and communism. We must have these to keep Radical Islam at bay, too. This is why we must resist the growth of atheism. It was God that gave us our freedom. It was God who gave our sense of purpose that created civilization. Take those away, and there is nothing to fight for. In this way, Lurie shows that the lack of belief in God is our greatest danger. How does he know? Because like a hurricane, godlessness has only known how to destroy everything in its path. It has never created. Like there will always be fires, there will always be enemies that seek to destroy our civilization. But if we don't have fire stations with crew, and protocol in each city to deal with fires, those fires will consume us. Likewise, how we prepare ourselves to deal with horrific ideologies will be what saves us. That preparation can only come with our embrace of the centrality of God.

YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO TO REMAIN SILENT

Terrifying violence on college campuses across America. Students lashing out at any speaker brave enough to say something they disagree with. Precious snow flakes demanding Safe Spaces to protect them from any idea they haven't heard from their liberal professors. In this book and the accompanying movie, Dennis Prager, Mark Joseph, and Adam Carolla expose the attack on free speech and free thought. It began in the universities, but--fair warning--it's coming to your neighborhood and your workplace.

No Safe Spaces is a film every American should see. I could barely move when it was over. Powerful, emotional, and a call to action for anyone worried about the intellectual fascism happening in this country. A brave, timely, and important film. --MEGYN KELLY, former FOX News anchor and host of Megyn Kelly Today

There is no free speech in America for free thinkers You can have free speech in America but only if you say what everybody else agrees with. It's not enough to 'live and let live' now. The psycho-elite believe 'silence is violence' and you must actively promote what THEY want no matter how vile or reprehensible it is to you. George Orwell lives They should've called Orwell 'Nostradamus' because his most frightening prophecies have come to pass, as you will witness in No Safe Spaces --MANCOW MULLER, radio phenomenon

An excellent film, the best I've seen on the subject of free speech. I especially like Dennis's line, 'They have to believe we are evil; otherwise they'd have to debate us.' Perfect --CAL THOMAS, America's #1 syndicated columnist

Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2023 im Fachbereich BWL - Informationswissenschaften, Informationsmanagement, Note: 1,3, Johann Wolfgang Goethe-Universität Frankfurt am Main (Wirtschaftswissenschaften), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Ziel dieser Arbeit ist, die Auswirkungen der Informationsinfrastruktur eines Unternehmens auf seine Nachhaltigkeitsberichterstattung erkennen zu lassen. Welche spezifische Rolle ausgewählte Informationssysteme für das Nachhaltigkeitsreporting spielen und welchen Einfluss diese auf Qualität und Erfolg eines Berichtes sowie das Reporting von Treibhausgasemissionen haben, soll somit im Folgenden erarbeitet werden. Der Untersuchungshorizont der vorliegenden Arbeit bezieht sich auf sämtliche Informationssysteme der DAX-40 Unternehmen sowie ihre Nachhaltigkeitsberichte des Berichtsjahres 2021. Anhand einer literarischen Analyse werden zunächst bestehende Paper gesichtet, die sich bereits in ähnlicher Weise mit der Fragestellung dieser Arbeit beschäftigt haben. In einer folgenden empirischen Analyse werden zunächst sämtliche Informationssysteme der DAX-40-Unternehmen in ihrer Funktion als potenziell relevant für die Prozesse der Nachhaltigkeitsberichterstattung beurteilt und in einem anschlie enden Vergleichsprozess, den Emissionsdaten der Nachhaltigkeitsberichte der DAXUnternehmen gegenübergestellt. Nachhaltigkeitsberichte dienen Unternehmen als Kommunikationsinstrument und vermitteln Fortschritte in der Umsetzung nachhaltiger Aspekte in der Unternehmensstruktur, seiner Geschäftsstrategie und damit einhergehender Unternehmenstätigkeiten. Es zeigt sich, dass Informationssysteme hierbei eine entscheidende Rolle im Prozess der Berichterstattung sowie in vorhergehenden Prozessen der Informationserhebung und -verarbeitung spielen.
