On March 11, 2008, nationally syndicated radio talk show host Dennis Prager—described in Jewish Week as “one of the three most interesting minds in American Jewish life”—made a presentation at the Y to offer compelling arguments in favor of Judaism, developed over many years of speaking to people from virtually every religion and culture. Prager, a popular radio talk show host since 1982, is the author of The Nine Questions People Ask About Judaism, Why the Jews?, The Reason for Antisemitism and Happiness Is a Serious Problem. In the clip above he discusses the Jewish relationship to Christianity, the self-criticism of Judaism and how the Torah makes the case for "good people" - no matter their religion.
