## Resource

While speaking with PragerU CEO Marissa Streit, Dennis Prager opens with a monologue exploring whether thoughts are the same as actions, arguing that moral clarity requires distinguishing between the two. Dennis also takes questions from Prager United members for the first time since his injury, covering topics ranging from ancient wisdom in the Talmud and the Sabbath to capital punishment, honoring parents, gratitude, and how he continues to find meaning after paralysis. ▶️ Watch more episodes of Dennis Prager’s Latest Thoughts at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://l.prageru.com/48GsyrJ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get your copy of Dennis's book, If There Is No God: The Battle Over Who Defines Good and Evil here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://a.co/d/06XAzWQR⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 👉 What else is PragerU unpacking?
