So there's a dynamic going on there that I think we have to realize and that America, we have to look at it as we are stewards of America.
And those who say I'm not going to get involved with politics because it's too dirty don't realize that it's our job because it was given to us.
The people who say that are as guilty for America's decline as the left is.
There is no distinction between the left.
And the people who won't fight them.
You're right.
I mean, it's become a cliche, but freedom and our way of life is not free.
Every generation has to stand up.
That's right.
That's exactly right.
And there's probably been no more ever a time when there's more intimidation.
That's right.
For standing up.
That's right.
But that's why we need folks like you.
And I know you embolden thousands, if not millions, just by telling the truth.
And it's been one good thing about COVID, Dennis, is I've been home and I could listen to you on the radio.
I never thought of that as a bonus of COVID, but I'll take it.
I'll take it.
I spent my early life in sales with all your cassettes and my cars.
Oh, very touched.
It's fun to get back on your show and talk about faith, but it's not abstract, because really, as you and I have talked about, and you talk about all the time, the country depends on people of faith standing up and defending a real truth.
Yes, otherwise, what is your faith?
The book, my friends, is Satan's Dare.
It's a novel, but it's a theological work.
And he's a serious thinker, Jim DeMint.
Satan's there.
It is up at DennisPrager.com.
Jim, I wish you only success with the book.
Well, thank you, Dennis.
Thanks for what you do every day.
Look forward to getting back on your show sometime.
That's a deal.
You got it.
Thank you, sir.
Yes, he understands.
The issue in the United States...
Let me give you so many examples.
I'll give you one.
Here's one that you would find in my commentary in Genesis, the Rational Bible, Genesis.
What does God do for six days?
And I forget whether it's six days literally or not.
I find that question to be inconsequential.
And what does God do for that period of time?
Whether it's six billion years or it's six days, I don't care.
What does God do?
Mostly, makes order out of chaos.
And what the left is doing is undoing that order and making chaos.
That human sexuality is not binary is a perfect example of a statement of chaos from the left.
We're not born male or female.
Okay?
So for those of you who want to know, where does the left and the Bible differ?
