What’s So Great about Christianity

In his debates with leading atheists (including the late Christopher Hitchens) Dinesh D’Souza faced a barrage of questions about Christianity such as Has Christianity been disproven by science?, debunked as a force for good?, and discredited as a guide to morality? In this talk Dinesh explores the truths of Christianity, how they withstand modern arguments and how Christianity has shaped (and how it continues to shape) the best values of Western civilization.

God & Suffering
Is there a God who Cares?

From private conversations to formal debates, Dinesh noticed that most atheists are “Wounded Theists”. It’s not that they refuse to believe in God; rather, they are angry and disappointed with God. A catalyst event can cause us to turn from God because we don’t understand how God can be good and allow us to suffer. In this talk Dinesh explains how God, suffering and evil can coexist using modern science to make his case.

Life after Death
The Evidence

Is death the end? It’s a question we all ask. Dinesh D’Souza makes the convincing case that death is not the end. In this talk he uses the latest discoveries in physics and neuroscience, convincing philosophical deductions, and the most likely conclusions from anthropology and biology to make the case for Life After Death. Join him as he shows how science answers the biggest question and what it means for our lives today.

Has Science Refuted Religion?

Science now claims to have most of the biggest questions answered. But can it tell us why we are here? Or what the purpose of life is? Or where the universe came from? Dinesh shows that science cannot answer many of our biggest questions and that religion still can. Dinesh does more than push back on science, he uses it to demonstrate the validity of faith.

The Roots of Obama's Rageby Dinesh D'Souza

The Roots of Obama's Rage

by Dinesh D'Souza
"Stunning...the most profound insight I have read in the last six years about Barack Obama." --NEWT GINGRICH

The Roots of Obama's Rage reveals Obama for who he really is: a man driven by the anti-colonial ideology of his father and the first American president to actually seek to reduce America's strength, influence, and standard of living. Controversial and compelling, The Roots of Obama's Rage is poised to be the one book that truly defines Obama and his presidency.

Life After Deathby Dinesh D'Souza

Life After Death

by Dinesh D'Souza
Unlike many books about the afterlife, Life after Death makes no appeal to religious faith, divine revelation, or sacred texts. Drawing on some of the most powerful theories and trends in physics, evolutionary biology, science, philosophy, and psychology, D'Souza shows why the atheist critique of immortality is irrational and draws the striking conclusion that it is reasonable to believe in life after death. He concludes by showing how life after death can give depth and significance to this life, a path to happiness, and reason for hope.
What's So Great about Christianityby Dinesh D'Souza

What's So Great about Christianity

by Dinesh D'Souza
In a world of facts and figures, can an intellectual have faith? Is it possible to believe anything the Bible says? Yes, and one man will show you how.

Amidst scientists' attempts to debunk Christianity's truths and atheists' assuming the Bible is a how-to-be-virtuous self-help book, bestselling author Dinesh D'Souza resolves to both answer the tough questions and challenge believers as well as doubters to search for the ultimate truths about theories of origin. D'Souza tackles subjects and events such as the Crusades and the Spanish Inquisition, the Big Bang theory and Darwinism--everything you always pondered but never scrutinized, now placed under the proverbial microscope and studied thoroughly.

The Enemy at Homeby Dinesh D'Souza

The Enemy at Home

by Dinesh D'Souza
From THE ENEMY AT HOME:

"In this book I make a claim that will seem startling at the outset. The cultural left in this country is responsible for causing 9/11. ... In faulting the cultural left, I am not making the absurd accusation that this group blew up the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. I am saying that the cultural left and its allies in Congress, the media, Hollywood, the nonprofit sector, and the universities are the primary cause of the volcano of anger toward America that is erupting from the Islamic world. The Muslims who carried out the 9/11 attacks were the product of this visceral rage--some of it based on legitimate concerns, some of it based on wrongful prejudice, but all of it fueled and encouraged by the cultural left. Thus without the cultural left, 9/11 would not have happened.

"I realize that this is a strong charge, one that no one has made before. But it is a neglected aspect of the 9/11 debate, and it is critical to understanding the current controversy over the 'war against terrorism.' ... I intend to show that the left has actively fostered the intense hatred of America that has led to numerous attacks such as 9/11. If I am right, then no war against terrorism can be effectively fought using the left-wing premises that are now accepted doctrine among mainstream liberals and Democrats."

Whenever Muslims charge that the war on terror is really a war against Islam, Americans hasten to assure them they are wrong. Yet as Dinesh D'Souza argues in this powerful and timely polemic, there really is a war against Islam. Only this war is not being waged by Christian conservatives bent on a moral crusade to impose democracy abroad but by the American cultural left, which for years has been vigorously exporting its domestic war against religion and traditional morality to the rest of the world.

D'Souza contends that the cultural left is responsible for 9/11 in two ways: by fostering a decadent and depraved American culture that angers and repulses other societies--especially traditional and religious ones-- and by promoting, at home and abroad, an anti-American attitude that blames America for all the problems of the world.

Islamic anti-Americanism is not merely a reaction to U.S. foreign policy but is also rooted in a revulsion against what Muslims perceive to be the atheism and moral depravity of American popular culture. Muslims and other traditional people around the world allege that secular American values are being imposed on their societies and that these values undermine religious belief, weaken the traditional family, and corrupt the innocence of children. But it is not "America" that is doing this to them, it is the American cultural left. What traditional societies consider repulsive and immoral, the cultural left considers progressive and liberating.

Taking issue with those on the right who speak of a "clash of civilizations," D'Souza argues that the war on terror is really a war for the hearts and minds of traditional Muslims--and traditional peoples everywhere. The only way to win the struggle with radical Islam is to convince traditional Muslims that America is on their side.

We are accustomed to thinking of the war on terror and the culture war as two distinct and separate struggles. D'Souza shows that they are really one and the same. Conservatives must recognize that the left is now allied with the Islamic radicals in a combined effort to defeat Bush's war on terror. A whole new strategy is therefore needed to fight both wars. "In order to defeat the Islamic radicals abroad," D'Souza writes, "we must defeat the enemy at home."

What's So Great about Americaby Dinesh D'Souza

What's So Great about America

by Dinesh D'Souza
With What's So Great About America, Dinesh D'Souza is not asking a question, but making a statement. The former White House policy analyst and bestselling author argues that in the aftermath of September 11, 2001, American ideals and patriotism should not be things we shy away from. Instead he offers the grounds for a solid, well-considered pride in the Western pillars of science, democracy and capitalism, while deconstructing arguments from both the political Left and political Right. As an outsider from India who has had amazing success in the United States, D'Souza defends not an idealized America, but America as it really is, and measures America not against an utopian ideal, but against the rest of the world in a provocative, challenging, and personal book.
