It’s weird that Dennis Prager spent a few decades on talk radio and in his books talking about morality, specifically Judeo-Christian values. Then later started an organization with his name on it that constantly bears false witness and harms people and breaks several other of the Ten Commandments.
Maybe he never really believed in anything.
I think he believes in the holy profit
Judeo-Christian values should have been the red flag on the outset. It doesn't mean following the "love thy neighbor" parts of Jesus's teachings; that's code for "white, heteronormative, Fundigelical Authoritarianism."
Lying to bring about what he envisions is God's Kingdom™, especially when he believes lying is justified due to how he believes God can forgive his lies for the Greater Good™, is unsurprising.
I don't doubt he believes in the god he professes, I just think he's a fucking psychopath with a twisted morality and epistemology.
