- Dennis Prager and John reflect on how affluence and secularism has led to radical environmentalism amongst our society's elite. In the absence of transcendent meaning, the notion of 'saving the world' is alluring.

Appreciation and blessings from Sydney Australia .
Never in history has affluence and secularism been so predominant.
That´s why I´m very happy about living in modern times.
Right, because when the religious had all the money and power, everything was wonderful.
Bill Gates has good-like power. He and his ilk somehow forget their own mortality.
@@hooligan9794 Only less bad, secularism has given us two world wars and nuclear weapons, no one is fighting over the true cross.
@@godsowncountry3605 You have learned to love the bomb, congratulations.
This is brilliant and it shines in my brain.
I know that feeling.
I've had a similar thought too in the past.....
What else can they do? Go to the beach in the sun? Find a job at McDonalds?
I thought about this because i knew a guy (single) with a really successful business that pretty much ran itself..... He had literally nothing to do... and used to potter about... and then he volunteered at a local buddhist centre in the shop.
I totally agree with him about that side of things. Being rich and bored makes some ppl go insane. look at Gates - the WEF ppl... etc.
And none of these people are exceptionally intelligent. Not at all. If anything... despite their travels and even education - can be extremely dim and/or short sighted - but people equate being rich with being clever.
A great of wealth is pure chance.
Excellent choice of guests. My gut tells me much could be accomplished by more discussions and support by gentlemen of your influence If the younger generations could only understand their value and accept wisdom over impetuousness.
Never give up trying to reach them .
Stunningly accurate take on boredom.
How lovely to hear an opinion without all the screaming and shouting, well done boys
Refreshing isn’t it.
It;s called wisdom.

Anderson is a legend. He proves Conservatism is a dead end once and for all.😆😆
Geez...two of the best minds out there these days ! Brilliant
My God. Conservative minds are not the best! Neither are conservative values and religious bigotry. Wake up.
No.best minds. Conservative values and religious bigotry offers nothing new. Less poverty , more people and mass extinctions of non human life! When does that matter Dennis Prager???
@@leonharrison800 huh...not sure what you're saying. What's wrong with more people and how does that create mass extinction. What non-human life is becoming extinct. How is anything they say religious bigotry...seems like you just like labels. Conservative and family based values protect non-human lives much more than socialist and communist values.
Never give up and do not comply with lies.
When you think about it, life is really simple.
'Kerb your use of electricity' and also; 'buy an electric car'.
Excellent point !
Our world elites call to mind the stories about the Olympians gods. They express their boredom by meddling in human affairs.
Sure I may have more free time than previous generations but boredom isn't something I've every felt even as a secularist. There is so much access to stimulation these days.
I'm saving the world, one herd of cattle at a time.
Hubris... "Those whom the gods would destroy they first must make mad".
Two very smart men together. 😍
Always gold, John.
A life without a source of eternal purpose will find its purpose elsewhere.
Don’t know what you have till it’s gone. As you say boredom plus wealth will destroy the world.
What an awesome human being,wow❤
So what's an equation that counteracts boredom and results in transcendent meaning? 🤔
🤣
I believe also some do the work trying to help and some do!! But where they fail is not getting the other side of the coin of an argument!!!
An idle mind is the Devil's playground.
Busy hands are happy hands ! Bored, wealthy Americans are bored and searching for an issue to pour their energy into and in reality they are simply trying to ease their consciences with the wrong issues .
"This is the necessary unavoidable consequence of the fact that, according to Marxist doctrine, you do not consider the possibility of dissent among honest people; either you think as I do, or you are a traitor and must be liquidated."

Best differentiation of Left and Liberal I have heard. Liberals like Bill Maher are learning this now and starting to speak out against the far left portion of their party!!! My hope is that the far left splits from the Democratic party and starts a third party so we can fully ID who are the loons!!!
Had a nose explosion “What did they have before candles? Electricity” 🤣 👏
We live in incredible boring times, even these elites are bored.
Thanks for an interesting video!
I’m truly appauld
For me, boredom brings on entrepreneur seizures.
Exactly Dennis, our Neolithic ancestors left behind the Stone age because they were bored.
whenever I hear dennis speak, I get the strangest feeling than someone's left their back door open again
One way I get a little satisfaction is to NEVER pay money for a movie with Leonardo DEE-STUPIDO or anyone in hollywood doing the same thing he does. My list also includes the communist Ben Affleck and anyone with his values. Robert Dinero is definitely on my list for not giving money for a movie with him in it. Even the guy that acted like mister nice guy while in court (yes Johnny Depp). People forget he stood behind a podium and said "when is the last time a president was assassinated". So I wasn't cheering him on. It's nice being set free from hollywood and not giving money to see their movies.
This man probably hasn't read a single page of any actual philosophical or sociological work, I don't think he even knows who Hegel or Marx were (but I think that the americans who know who they were can be counted with the fingers of one hand) and still talks a lot about dialectical materialsim without even knowing its name, and this honestly is extremly funny for me.
Vaccines and chemicals and pesticides in our environments and foods is fuelling the decline
Apparently, you're just bored. (need some more work assignments).
I agree .
Someone is in the club.
Dennis---Would you agree that Jesus Christ is the Messiah, the savior of the world,the one Isaiah and Micah prophecied about?
I’m bored as f$ck. The guest is right.
sigh, both wrong, read a history book
You're interviewing Dennis Prager? I used to like your channel. This is painfully too far.
Saving the world from extinction? Think of “Building Love among Religions”. Try to understand what is love and what kind of love is the best to build among the boring peoples and others.For that, research and development of GODS’ LOVE is a must.The understanding of God’s love is extinct already along with some valuable teachings of religious originators’ teachings.The best and most important teachings about GODS’ LOVE is extinct millenniums ago. Be careful of the difference between GODS’ AND GOD’S LOVE.
Yeah, like the faithful don’t get bored.
Sell another one mate
I'm faithful and I get bored....but then I ask the almighty one what to do? ....seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened..he works in mysterious ways.
But perhaps they find"transcendent meaning" via a belief in Jesus coming to fix it ALL
@@bmxion trancendence that comes through a lie is meaningful?
What nonsense.
If you need fairy tales to give your life meaning then you need to grow up
@@thedrunkphilosopher3123 Yeah, that seems to be the two options🤔
@@bmxion there is only one option if you seek reality over the comfortable lie that some inter dimensional creature loves you.
At the same time you accept that he was his own son and had himself killed two thousand years ago for your mistakes today, then I have a harbour bridge in Sydney to sell you.
Here’s the difference though, I exist, there is no evidence any god does.
Don’t trust Dennis Prager
Why ?
@@buildmotosykletist1987 Smiling out loud .
@kaylenehousego8929 : Seems @michael... does not know.
@@buildmotosykletist1987 "Don't trust Dennis Prager", hmmmmm....because he's nice, honest, well spoken and makes great points? You can't trust a guy like that!
@billyk8161 : Yeah. Notice @michael is absent since I asked "Why".
GODS NEW KINGDOM IS COMING REAL SOON.
