Consequences of Secularism, Part I
G.K. Chesterton said, "When people stop believing in god, they don’t believe in nothing. They believe in anything.” In episode one of PragerU Master’s Program, exclusively on DailyWire+, Dennis Prager breaks down (debunks) so-called conventional wisdom that secularism is better than a religious-based society.

Consequences of Secularism, Part II
“If people weren’t brainwashed into thinking religion is awful and is for dummies, religion would be the first thing every single pro-human, anti-depression group would advocate.” In Part II of PragerU Master’s Program, exclusively on DailyWire+, Dennis Prager contends that the rise of secular extremism has led to the death of communal life, and by extension, our happiness. Even though it is a fact that actively religious people are significantly happier than secular people, the true calamity is that people still reject it to their detriment.

Happiness is a Moral Obligation
"The most effective argument for atheism is an unhappy religious person.” God made us to be happy, not unhappy. In episode three of PragerU Master’s Program, exclusively on DailyWire+, Dennis Prager makes a powerful argument for acting happy - even when we don’t feel happy. We not only owe it to God to be happy, we owe it to everyone in our life. Ultimately, we are not the product of our feelings but our behavior, and like our founding fathers said, "happiness is something to pursue".

Is Human Nature Basically Good?
Is human nature inherently good? In episode four of PragerU Master’s Program, exclusively on DailyWire+, Dennis Prager’s sobering answer is no. In a radically secular age, believing that we’re basically good absolves us of any blame, or a religious moral code, or even the need to teach people how to be good. Despite history’s atrocities, from war to slavery to animal cruelty or just incivility in general, Dennis argues that this enlightened way of thinking has ironically done more harm than good.

Differences Between the Left and the Right, Part I
A common misconception often uttered by politicians is when it comes to being left and right, we have much more in common than where we differ. As Dennis Prager shows, in this two-part episode of PragerU Master’s Program, this could not be further from the truth. In fact, the gap between right and left is gigantic, permeating all levels of society. Watch as Dennis Prager gives twenty examples to illustrate this point as a helpful way to clarify and determine who you might side with.

Part 2: Differences Between the Left and The Right, Part II
While not all conservatives or liberals align with every right-wing or left-wing position, it's essential to recognize the fundamental differences between these ideologies. Dennis takes us through twenty more examples including American exceptionalism, border policies, and our collective identity, to illuminate the stark divide between the right and the left. By doing so, Dennis helps viewers determine their position on the political spectrum.

Differences Between Men and Women
Despite what modern academics would have you believe, men and women are physiologically, psychologically and emotionally different. Dennis explains that when we deny differences between the sexes, we’re not only denying human nature but making it impossible to understand each other, and ourselves.

The Case For Marriage
While modern-day feminism has made the case that women don’t need marriage to be fulfilled, the research proves otherwise. The truth is, marriage improves mental and physical health, fosters personal growth, and enhances one’s character. Dennis proves this with a powerful real-life story shared during his talk radio show, demonstrating that marriage is the ultimate key to living a fulfilling life.

How to be a Good Person
To become a good person, you need a genuine desire to be one and actively take steps to achieve it. This means prioritizing personal growth over other aspects of life, such as education or career advancement. Simply adhering to the golden rule isn’t enough; true goodness requires developing specific qualities such as self-awareness, and the courage to be honest, and building relationships based on character.
