Dennis and Julie: The Dishonesty Slope

For Julie and Dennis being authentic is of tantamount importance… and it takes a great deal of effort. It’s an insecurity to not be “real.” Is there truth in advertising? On the day Solzhenitsyn was arrested, in 1974, he released the text of “Live Not by Lies,” an essay regarded by Julie as one of the most substantial writings of the 20th century. Can you think of a Left-wing public broadcast that makes people more mature and helps develop a healthy psychological perspective? Johnathan Haidt describes a study in which he examines how well liberals, conservatives, and moderates understand each other in The Righteous Mind. What is prayer …and it important to you? Julie asks Dennis questions about the Rational Bible, topics include: circumcision; father son rivalry; ethical monotheism; God’s promise to the Hebrew people; Abraham bargains God down to ten people… Sodom and Gomorrah; arguing with God; don’t hug the Rabbi.
