Yep, I agree. I’ve heard Glenn say some really ridiculous things about the early Church...the Constantinian period etc.

I appreciate what he’s doing, but I don’t find him very reliable historically.

It’s just when you think you’ve gotten wrong info (or at least, IMPRESSIONS - which is what this is really about), you now feel you can’t rely on what else is said that you know nothing about. Yes, we have to do our own research, but hey, even on these threads, other posters’ statements should induce “research” because they raise questions. That’s exactly what Beck talks about, anyway.

A couple weeks ago Beck was centered on Coolidge. Very nice, but I noticed he kept making the mistake that Coolidge did things right after Wilson - which wasn’t true. Coolidge wasn’t the 1 who was elected on the heels of Wilson and basically pulled us out of the 1920 recession - that was Harding. Not to say that Coolidge wasn’t good. It may have been an honest mistake, but he kept doing it and only later finally got corrected (partially, since it still left some wrong impressions).
