Glenn Beck starts online 'university'

Fox News host Glenn Beck announced Tuesday that he has launched an online “academic program” teaching classes in “religion, American history and economics.”

“School may be out for the summer, but for Glenn Beck class is just starting,” reads an announcement on Beck’s website. “This July, while others are relaxing poolside, head back to the classroom — from the comfort of your own home. That may sound like an oxymoron, but Glenn’s new academic program is only available online.”

Oh, here we go again, all the Mormon haters showing up on this thread. I’m getting off of it now, as you people make me sick. Enjoy your bigoted, spiteful circular firing squad. I’m outta here.

I wonder if he is going to include the LDS teaching that Jesus will reign from Missouri not Jerusalem?

Articles of Faith

The Articles of Faith outline 13 basic points of belief of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
The Prophet Joseph Smith first wrote them in a letter to John Wentworth, a newspaper editor,
in response to Mr. Wentworth's request to know what members of the Church believed.
They were subsequently published in Church periodicals.
They are now regarded as scripture and included in the Pearl of Great Price.

 

THE ARTICLES OF FAITH
OF THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS
History of the Church, Vol. 4, pp. 535—541

 

 

1. We believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost.
   
2. We believe that men will be punished for their own sins, and not for Adam's transgression.
   
3. We believe that through the Atonement of Christ, all mankind may be saved, by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the Gospel.
   
4. We believe that the first principles and ordinances of the Gospel are: first, Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; second, Repentance; third, Baptism by immersion for the remission of sins; fourth, Laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost.
   
5. We believe that a man must be called of God, by prophecy, and by the laying on of hands by those who are in authority, to preach the Gospel and administer in the ordinances thereof.
   
6. We believe in the same organization that existed in the Primitive Church, namely, apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers, evangelists, and so forth.
   
7. We believe in the gift of tongues, prophecy, revelation, visions, healing, interpretation of tongues, and so forth.
   
8. We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly; we also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God.
   
9. We believe all that God has revealed, all that He does now reveal, and we believe that He will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the Kingdom of God.
   
10. We believe in the literal gathering of Israel and in the restoration of the Ten Tribes; that Zion (the New Jerusalem) will be built upon the American continent; that Christ will reign personally upon the earth; and, that the earth will be renewed and receive its paradisiacal glory.
    
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.
    
12. We believe in being subject to kings, presidents, rulers, and magistrates, in obeying, honoring, and sustaining the law.
    
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.

I know whom I wouldn’t want as an instructor, as it would be an attitudinal problem, and that is you.

Oh, wow. I'll be bruised in the morning.

As a side note I have no problem at all with my attitude.

Mormon haters showing up on this thread

Again with the charge and again NO proof, so typical.

[Elsie]

. And Glenn Beck can teach whatever he wants.

Just as we ANTIs will CONTINUE to post remarks and statements MADE BY MORMON LEADERS on FR.

And; MORMONs will continue to bitch that we are haters and bigots for posting these HISTORICAL FACTS.

[reaganaut]

I wonder how much he will get into McConkie’s “Millenial Messiah” and how the LDS first presidency will reign alongside Jesus (as His right hand men) in Missouri and how the LDS will take over the US government then?

To the lurkers: No, I am NOT kidding.

[flaglady47]

“And; MORMONs will continue to bitch that we are haters and bigots for posting these HISTORICAL FACTS.”

Look in the mirror.

[Elsie]

It’s the ill-informed that I’m concerned about.

Us, too!

[Elsie]

I’m getting off of it now, as you people make me sick.

Bye.

The jury will find that you have NO guts for the fight.

[Elsie]

Look in the mirror.

I thought you said you were leaving???

They succeeded in killing Joseph, but he had finished his work.

He was a servant of God, and gave us the Book of Mormon.

He said the Bible was right in the main, but, through the translators and others, many precious portions were suppressed, and several other portions were wrongly translated; and now his testimony is in force, for he has sealed it with his blood.

As I have frequently told them, no man in this dispensation will enter the courts of heaven, without the approbation of the Prophet Joseph Smith, Jun.

Who has made this so?

Have I?

Have this people?

Have the world?

No; but the Lord Jehovah has decreed it.

If I ever pass into the heavenly courts, it will be by the consent of the Prophet Joseph.

If you ever pass through the gates into the Holy City, you will do so upon his certificate that you are worthy to pass.

Can you pass without his inspection?

No; neither can any person in this dispensation, which is the dispensation of the fulness of times.

In this generation, and in all the generations that are to come, everyone will have to undergo the scrutiny of this Prophet.

They say that they killed Joseph, and they will yet come with their hats under their arms and bend to him; but what good will it do them, unless they repent?

They can come in a certain way and find favor, but will they?

Dear Reader: what does it sound like to YOU?

"I wouldn’t trust a damn thing Beck said on religion, especially after the DSS/Nicaea debacle."

“The jury will find that you have NO guts for the fight.”

I don’t fight with those whose minds are in the “gut”ter.

[T Minus Four]

Oh, too funny :-)

[mdmathis6]

I guess i’d have to be disapointed a bit in Beck. Much of what they discover from the DSS seems to back up what we have in the old testament currently.

[mdmathis6]

It all sounds like blasphemy to me!

[svcw]

What does that even mean?

[Pan_Yans Wife]

But, they look so wholesome and pure. Who can argue with that?

LOL

They are youthful, minds full of mush.

[SevenofNine]

Monk you are bad ROFL very true on that

This going turn into South Park reset LOL!

“college history teacher here

i contributed time and money to both of Reagan’s campaigns”

Yeah, well then you know that you are as scarce as a hen’s tooth. I was in administration, as the Ass’t to the Head and Dept. Supervisor of the Math Dept. at a major public (liberal) University here in Illinois. And believe me, I know very well the politics of the vast majority of the Professors at this University (and its downstate sister University) as I had 25 years to observe it. And as you well know, it is the same throughout the United States. There are the occasional good guys,usually at smaller, mainly private colleges, and I assume you are one of them, but you are few and far between, aren’t you.

[Non-Sequitur]

Glenn stated that he was holding and reading the ORIGINAL copy, not a typed, posted, marked-up version on the internet. You can NOT say that Glenn is wrong unless you have seen the original which he (and Mr. Barton) says specifically reads as he stated on his show.

Yeah, every site on the web that has a copy of the rebel constitution is lying, is that it?
