Ep 71 | The Most Lethal Virus & The Real Truth About Riots & Looting

Your rabbi describes many looting riots in American history but why is it hard to find any prior to 1962? Were there no grievances in 1920? Was there no poverty in 1890? Why do people loot? Is it because their jobs were terminated by coronavirus? So why do they loot? I don’t want to massage you with warm butter but that is the wrong question; the right question is why do other people NOT loot? Let’s face it, rioting and looting is fun. How come none of you Happy Warriors looted? Why did so many not take advantage of the illegal shopping spree that meant free stuff for everyone? Surely if it is a good and right way to behave for some, it is also good and right for everyone. Why are there more female rioters and looters than ever before? The fatal weakness of single mothers and their children. A parent’s obligation goes way beyond feeding their children and putting them on the yellow bus to their local GIC. The one reason for airplane crashes that nobody discusses. “The impulse of man’s heart is evil from his youth” What does this Bible verse mean? John Dewey and the destruction of American education. Humans are fundamentally good so progressives feel families are unnecessary. How you can know that social distancing is not science. Neither is the abolition of male and female as poles of human existence. Why inventions are often uncovered by two separate individuals at the same time.Being a happy warrior means NEVER allowing yourself to be a tennis ball floating down the gutter of life. Read more about our Thought Tool books https://rabbidaniellapin.com/product/thought-tools-set-3-softcover-books/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Ep 70 | “Let Me In Your House” he said to her. Reluctantly She Opened The Door. Why?

Have you ever found yourself submitting to emotional blackmail? Have you ever felt that to love God means being docile towards domineering people? Have you ever felt that the main reason to try and gain wealth is to give it away? Well, if so, you REALLY need a rabbi! Specifically me, the host of the Rabbi Daniel Lapin Show because these and other wrong beliefs are becoming more and more accepted. We start with a young woman being pressured by a man and then explore a famous “ethicist” (a profession I have less regard for than I do for barnacle scrapers of the Swiss navy) proclaiming how rich people are immoral. Who does have a right to your money? This show tries to show you how the world REALLY works, as you know. In other words, we want you to gain a coherent world view. But the right word is Weltanschauung. What does that mean?‘Weltanschauung’ is, I am afraid, a specifically German notion, which it would be difficult to translate into a foreign language. If I attempt to give you a definition of the word, it can hardly fail to strike you as inept. By Weltanschauung, then, I mean an intellectual construction which gives a unified solution of all the problems of our existence in virtue of a comprehensive hypothesis, a construction, therefore, in which no question is left open and in which everything in which we are interested finds a place. It is easy to see that the possession of such a Weltanschauung is one of the ideal wishes of mankind. When one believes in such a thing, one feels secure in life, one knows what one ought to strive after, and how one ought to organize one’s emotions and interests to the best purpose. (Sigmund Freud 35th lecture on psychoanalysis)Being a happy warrior means NEVER allowing yourself to be a tennis ball floating down the gutter of life. Read more about why counter-intuitive ideas about dating make for better marriages. https://rabbidaniellapin.com/product/ten-commandments-instant-download/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Ep 69 | It’s All Lies! Live to work? Or Work to Live?

Ever had someone ask you if you live to work or work to live? It’s a false dichotomy, as I explain on this show. Their 23 year-old son lived at home playing video games; hear how this story ended happily. In the name of equality, governments try to eliminate any advantages that come from a strong, healthy family. Heard politicians decrying the divisiveness in American society? Now hear what is America’s real fault line and who caused it. The secret of happy living is climbing outside yourself. What!? Yes, that is the secret significance of the 5 Fs. Become healthier by understanding that physical fitness is a titanic fight between your body and your soul. Money is much more than something needed to stay alive. It’s even more than something to give away to the needy. This is a pretty good description of what it is:“In its widest possible sense, however, a man’s Self is the sum total of all that he can call his, not only his body and his psychic powers, but his clothes and his house, his wife and children, his ancestors and friends, his reputation and works, his lands and horses, and yacht and bank account.  All these things give him the same emotions. If they wax and prosper, he feels triumphant; if they dwindle and die away, he feels cast down, not necessarily in the same degree for each thing, but in much the same way for all.” -American psychologist, William James, 1890.Being a happy warrior means NEVER allowing yourself to be a tennis ball floating down the gutter of life. Read more about why the Ten Commandments were on 2 tablets instead of just 1. https://rabbidaniellapin.com/product/ten-commandments-instant-download/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Ep 68 | Coping With The Unknowable: Your 3 Part Curriculum

These coronavirus days can make you feel utterly out of control of your own destiny. It makes you feel just like a tennis ball floating down the gutter of life. BUT, remember! Being a happy warrior means NEVER allowing yourself to be a tennis ball floating down the gutter of life. It sounds almost too good to be true but this is how the world REALLY works. There are only 3 things you need to know in order to build a successful career and create real wealth. You’ll know how to choose friends, associates and employees. You’ll even know what to major in at college. You’ll know how to choose a spouse, win a spouse and keep a spouse. You’ll also know how to attain happiness and raise happy children. You’ll know how to run organizations like families, churches, or corporations and you’ll know how to be kind and do good, correctly, with your head and not your heart. In this show, your rabbi explains the only 3 things worth spending time on mastering and incorporating into your life blueprint. But (and there’s always a ‘but’ isn’t there?) it is always about not only what you know—it is about what you are. It is not always about just knowing but it is about doing. Why no Lapin child is a concert pianist. Are all cultures of equal value to the health and vitality of a society?  Moving forward in spite of corona uncertainty.Life lessons from the Lord’s language? Yes, count on it! Right here: https://rabbidaniellapin.com/product/buried-treasure/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Ep 66 | Happy B-Earth-day Vladimir Lenin & To All You Environmental Fanatics

The father of modern communism, Vladimir Lenin, was born April 22nd, 1870. Exactly one hundred years later, a suspect group of naïve ‘activists’ created Earth Day and turned it into movement for the economic annihilation of the West. Said Gaylord Nelson, one of the founders of Earth Day, “The economy is a wholly owned subsidiary of the environment, not the other way around.” Watermelon became the term—Green on the outside, red on the inside. Like communism, socialism, & secular progressivism, environmentalism is a religion. It destroys heretics. Would you like to purchase carbon offsets? How about infidelity offsets? The Bible never uses the word nature or environment. Having children is bad for the environment. Boost Your Income and Prosperity Power: Become a happy warrior, not a tennis ball floating down the gutter of life.https://rabbidaniellapin.com/store/cds/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Ep 65 | Today’s Tough Life Lesson: Why The Guy Should Pay For The Date Every Time!

Why do some successful men prefer professional ladies of the night to casual hookups? Girls, if he hasn’t got enough money to pay for the date, you shouldn’t be dating him at all. Guys, there is a time to be preparing for financial stability and a time to be courting, or if you must, dating. Reversing that order can cause pain. Good women expect the man to pay. Not because they’re trying to freeride or because they’re short of money. The reason is not economic but emotional. If lots of people are trying to get certain jobs, they’re overpaid. Think politicians. America did better when it was governed by citizens who gave a short term of service rather than now when it is ruled by a professional class of permanent politicians who’ve never done anything else (not including the current president). Can a country have too many politicians and bureaucrats? What do y’all look like to me?

Ep 64 | Simplistic Solutions or Sophomoric Slogans Never Solve Problems of Money, Health, or Faith

Good news is bad news for The New York Times, CBS, CNBC, USA Today, and the Washington Post. They just love publishing terrifying and dire predictions based on days-old model projections and refuse to tell us how much better we’re doing than it appeared two weeks ago. What explains their irrational love affair with bad news? No American hospital has yet needed a ventilator that they lack. There is a troubling reason for why the American Center for Disease Control (CDC) directs doctors and hospitals to list cause of death as Covid-19 even in the absence of any test or other evidence. Do you agree with Toyota’s 5 business principles, and Panasonic’s 7, and General Electric’s 8? How the Passover Seder can instill ambition in participants of every background.https://rabbidaniellapin.com/product/seder-set/ Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
