On The Radio

A couple of weeks ago Prager announced, on the radio,  that baby boomers were sinners with values, and that was not so bad. Many would inveigh against them as hypocrites, but I have long written that it is better to be a hypocrite  not daring to be open about one sinning, than to be a full-throated, open, demonic sinner, an out-of-the-closet demon fanatical about sinning.

Prager on a parallel track largely said the same thing: he accuses Leftists of  being moral nihilists: if Americans on the Left believe in nothing, and anything goes, so anyone can be openly corrupt and sinful, thus without the social requirement any longer to be hypocritical, no longer pretending to be virtuous, claiming to still abide by moral standards.

Prager worries that without hypocrisy, pure evil and pure sinning will be the new moral low, the culture of lawlessness ruling the land.

Again, his stance on hypocrisy reveals his support for moral moderation.
