Dennis Prager describes the Bible, especially the Torah, as affecting him like classical music, requiring both mind and heart. David Horowitz notes the Bible has been a bestseller for two thousand years and speaks of being burned by what he calls the Church of Marxism.
Hi, this is Dennis Prager, and this is what you missed yesterday on the show. I am touched by God the most when I study the Bible. As I always say to people, it moves me more than prayer, and I have nothing against prayer, obviously, but because prayer is what I say, but the Bible, specifically the first 5 books, is what God says. So I'm touched. I really am touched. I have an emotional— it's like classical music. My reaction My reaction to the Torah specifically is like my reaction to classical music. Why do I prefer classical music to popular music? And I like a lot of popular music. Is that it touches my brain as well as my heart. They both need to be touched. A woman would be similar. I have to be touched by her mind and by her beauty and then and sensuality and all these other things, but this resonates with you. I know you well, because you are deeply into the mind in the best sense. So I just want you to know that God is available to those who are not mystically inclined, like you and like me. So I just thought that, well, I, you know, I have to I mean, I have a great respect for the Bible.
You can't be a bestseller for 2,000, whatever, 2,500 years if there's no wisdom there. And I think it's possible that my issue here is having been burned so badly by the Church of Marxism.
