The RDL Podcast with Rabbi Daniel Lapin

Rabbi Daniel Lapin talks about time and its role. Everyone, even animals, live in the present. "The more present focused you are, the more tolerant you are of debt, because the bill only comes due sometime in the future. And as you become more somebody capable only of relating to the present, not the future. You literally don't feel the imperative of what's coming down the road in the future."

This show is all about these five big questions: Am I making excuses for this famous politician’s son who left his wife and took up with his older brother’s widow? Aren’t strong and independent women the ideal we all aim for? How could women whose firemen husbands survived 9-11 also have become victims of that terrible Tuesday? Does the Bible really say sleeping with one’s sister is disgraceful? What if any lessons does all this teach us about our own marriages today?

Not all fights are fair. Why liberalism/leftism otherwise known as the religion of secular fundamentalism has the advantage. Does this mean that Judeo-Christian Biblical-based civilization will ultimately lose? One side says, “Vote for us and we’ll give you lots of stuff. And we’ll remove all the rules, restrictions, rituals and restraints that maintain society’s repressive institutions.” The other side can only say, “Vote for us, we’ll get out of your way and you can make of your life what you will.” Why companies making electric cars are reckless investments. Why you should trust yourself rather than experts and studies. How Secular Fundamentalism came to dominate America and why it rejects reality.

Rabbi Lapin shows how political correctness is like landing on an island without civilization and the local people take you cautiously into the tribe. They find you odd when you do things that are normal but are not normal to them and arguing with the local witch doctor about the customs.

Oroville Dam will not burst, but its spillway might collapse. Why wasn’t it built right in the first place? Why hasn’t it been maintained? Can governments really suffer from moral failings? Using water to cut metal gives us an idea of its power. Is maintaining your possessions a religious duty incumbent upon all Jews and Christians? Is it ‘wrong’ to acquire ‘stuff’?

Everyone wants a Marvelous, Mysterious, Magical and Magnificent marriage! We don’t want a kind and considerate roommate. We don’t want a hygienic socio-economic partner. We don’t even want a cook, housecleaner-take-out-the-garbage-fixer-upper-fight-off-the-burglars-and-walk-the-dog, live-in tenant. No, we want the sexiest words in the English language, a husband or a wife. But that arrangement is only possible between a man who is masculine and a woman who is feminine. The problem is that for years we’ve all been bombarded by an incessant barrage of propaganda teaching women to be more like men, and directing men to be less like men. Is there a solution? Can a 4M marriage really be created? Yes! that is why you have a rabbi with the Manufacturer’s Instruction Manual!

How Christian missionaries brought democracy to Africa. Dr. Livingstone I presume. How religion’s Biblical values can build nations as well as people. Why I rode a motorcycle through Africa in 1969 and how I watched Neil Armstrong walk on the moon. Impulse control is really useful to build a successful life. Parents must model and teach it early. No impulse control? No problem; you now have a mental disability. Take two tablets and shoot me in the morning. The disastrous Boston Big Dig took 25 years and cost ten times more than planned. California’s Big Creek hydro project continues still today to supply 1000 megawatts of electricity to Los Angeles. It was built under budget and under schedule—back in 1910. One reason America may never build big projects again.
