You know what.. I actually thought that he should be able to swear on the Koran until I heard Dennis Prager's point of view. Best line: "It's not a theological affirmation. It's a moral, philosophical, and historical affirmation."

i agree with both of you

its not God that should be sworn to, but the values of the bible that are the essential pillars of American democracy...for instance: all are created equal; we have inalienable rights; etc etc

@kgj08 That admission is a great credit to your character.

@killerbee2k

true, but not many can articulate their position in a rational way. and, imo, there's even less on the right (depending on the issue, of course), but prager does a very good job of it.

[killerbee2k]

@elnegrobembon both the left and right rely allot on emotions for their beliefs which is totally natural.

when i first heard Tucker Carlson state Prager's position, i thought Prager must be crazy or misinformed for thinking this.. but then i heard him explain his position and his argument, and he does it well...

i have to say, he's one of the few conservatives i can respect. not many cons can defend their postion on a rational level like he can and have it make sense.

most argue for their conservative beliefs purely from an emotional argument, but prager actually makes a good case for his beliefs.
