Dennis Prager Show - Former Senator Jim DeMint speaks with Dennis on the current state of religion Aired: 2021-10-25 Duration: 04:00 === America's Stewards (02:25) === [00:00:00] 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. [00:00:11] 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. [00:00:21] The people who say that are as guilty for America's decline as the left is. [00:00:26] There is no distinction between the left. [00:00:29] And the people who won't fight them. [00:00:32] You're right. [00:00:33] I mean, it's become a cliche, but freedom and our way of life is not free. [00:00:39] Every generation has to stand up. [00:00:41] That's right. [00:00:41] That's exactly right. [00:00:43] And there's probably been no more ever a time when there's more intimidation. [00:00:47] That's right. [00:00:48] For standing up. [00:00:49] That's right. [00:00:50] But that's why we need folks like you. [00:00:52] And I know you embolden thousands, if not millions, just by telling the truth. [00:00:57] And it's been one good thing about COVID, Dennis, is I've been home and I could listen to you on the radio. [00:01:04] I never thought of that as a bonus of COVID, but I'll take it. [00:01:08] I'll take it. [00:01:10] I spent my early life in sales with all your cassettes and my cars. [00:01:15] Oh, very touched. [00:01:16] 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. [00:01:32] Yes, otherwise, what is your faith? [00:01:35] The book, my friends, is Satan's Dare. [00:01:38] It's a novel, but it's a theological work. [00:01:42] And he's a serious thinker, Jim DeMint. [00:01:46] Satan's there. [00:01:46] It is up at DennisPrager.com. [00:01:48] Jim, I wish you only success with the book. [00:01:52] Well, thank you, Dennis. [00:01:52] Thanks for what you do every day. [00:01:54] Look forward to getting back on your show sometime. [00:01:56] That's a deal. [00:01:57] You got it. [00:01:58] Thank you, sir. [00:02:00] Yes, he understands. [00:02:02] The issue in the United States... [00:02:04] Let me give you so many examples. [00:02:07] I'll give you one. [00:02:09] Here's one that you would find in my commentary in Genesis, the Rational Bible, Genesis. === Sexuality Beyond Binary (01:49) === [00:02:18] What does God do for six days? [00:02:22] And I forget whether it's six days literally or not. [00:02:25] I find that question to be inconsequential. [00:02:32] And what does God do for that period of time? [00:02:36] Whether it's six billion years or it's six days, I don't care. [00:02:39] What does God do? [00:02:42] Mostly, makes order out of chaos. [00:02:46] And what the left is doing is undoing that order and making chaos. [00:02:56] That human sexuality is not binary is a perfect example of a statement of chaos from the left. [00:03:05] We're not born male or female. [00:03:08] Okay? [00:03:11] So for those of you who want to know, where does the left and the Bible differ? [00:03:16] Well, in every conceivable arena of life. [00:03:19] But here's a perfect example. [00:03:21] God created Adam. [00:03:23] Male and female, he created them. [00:03:26] That's what matters. [00:03:28] That's the only distinction that matters. [00:03:31] Male and female. [00:03:34] And the left is undoing that. [00:03:38] It's not binary. [00:03:40] Really? [00:03:41] Is it binary in all other animals in the world? [00:03:45] Of course it is. [00:03:47] Are kangaroos not born male and female? [00:03:53] Or birds? [00:03:57] They're all male or female, except humans.
