Using the term 'Christian' is not an attempt to gain acceptance into the mainstream — something that has little appeal or relevance to Latter-day Saints.

Yeah right.

“....the lie that Mormons are another strand of Christianity.”

right on the button on that one...

I agree with much of what Glenn Beck says and I am glad he has many of the same beliefs as a true blue american conservative, however Bill Keller has a valid point here.

Mormonism is not compatible with Christianity. Do Christians love Mormons? Of course! and they never quit praying for them. However anyone who believes that they are going to be a "God" someday is flat out deceived. As is anyone that believes what Adam and Eve did in the Garden was good, As is anyone that believes Jesus was the half-brother of Satan (and not God in the Flesh).

That said, I do not know all beliefs of Televangelist Bill Keller, although I hear he has a sordid past...

Great. Another Bible thumper assasinating the character of a nobel man just because he’s not a Christian.

Just what we needed.

Beck wants you to question what he wants you to question but
he doesn't want to question Mormon history.

Read about Mormon blood atonement.

Beck was brought up Catholic, and I believe was baptized as a Catholic, sooooooo, all his Mormon shennanigans only mean that he is not practicing his Catholic faith.

Read his book “The Christmas Sweater” for the proof.

What Mormons Believe:

From: Articles of Faith of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints

Number 13.
We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul-We believe all things, we hope all things, we have endured many things, and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.

Number 12.
We believe in being subject to kings, presidents, rulers, and magistrates, in obeying, honoring, and sustaining the law.

Number 11.
We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may.

From: Joseph Smith History
24. However, it was nevertheless a fact that I had beheld a vision. I have thought since, that I felt much like Paul, when he made his defense before King Agrippa, and related the account of the vision he had when he saw a light, and heard a voice; but still there were but few who believed him; some said he was dishonest, others said he was mad; and he was ridiculed and reviled. But all this did not destroy the reality of his vision. He had seen a vision, he knew he had, and all the persecution under heaven could not make it otherwise; and though they should persecute him unto death, yet he knew, and would know to his latest breath, that he had both seen a light and heard a voice speaking unto him, and all the world could not make him think or believe otherwise.

25.....I have actually seen a vision; and who am I that I can withstand God, or why does the world think to make me deny what I have actually seen? For I had seen a vision; I knew it, and I knew that God knew it, and I could not deny it, neither dared I do it; at least I knew that by so doing I would offend God, and come under condemnation.

33 He called me by name, and said unto me that he was a messenger sent from the presence of God to me, and that his name was Moroni; that God had a work for me to do; and that my name should be had for good and evil among all nations, kindreds, and tongues, or that it should be both good and evil spoken of among all people.

I doubt that Glen Beck really knows the significat problems with Mormon theology and I especially doubt the leadership of the Mormon church is going to expose him to all the lies and fraud.

Beck could simply be a Cristian who got sucked in by the “friendshipping”.

Both of these books were concocted by fraud scam artists who fancied themselves prophets..

Mormons’ theology is based on First Century Christianity, not Fourth Century Creeds. For example, the Church of Jesus Christ (LDS) views on Baptism, Lay Ministry, the Trinity, Theosis, Grace vs. Works, the Divinity of Jesus Christ comport more closely with Early Christianity than any other denomination. And Mormons’ teenagers have been judged to “top the charts” in Christian Characteristics by a UNC-Chapel Hill study. Read about it here:

Those who would denigrate the Mormon religion, usually are mis-informed.

Mormons have a better understanding of Christianity than any other denomination, according to a 2010 Pew Forum poll:

http://www.pewforum.org/Other-Beliefs-and-Practices/U-S-Religious-Knowledge-Survey.aspx

11 of the signers of the Declaration of Independence were non-Trinitarian Christians. Those who insist on their narrow definition of Christianity are doing our Republic an injustice.
