Friday August 13, 2010First Rush, then Coulter, and Now Glenn Beck ... Whats Happening?
Commentary by John-Henry Westen OReilly asked Beck, Do you believe that gay marriage is a threat to the country in any way? Beck replied, No, I don't, adding sarcastically, Will the gays come and get us? The Glenn Beck revelation comes on the heels of two other startling announcements by conservative celebrity pundits in the last couple of weeks. Earlier this week it was announced that conservative pundit Ann Coulter would headline a fundraiser for the homosexual activist group within the Republican Party, GOProud. And on July 29, although his position had been revealed before, talk radio host Rush Limbaugh again came out in favor of homosexual civil unions, while being opposed to same-sex marriage. To be fair, it must be pointed out that Beck said he was looking at the big picture and promoting faith, the answer to all such things. Moreover, he added that he was okay with gay marriage with a caveat. As long as we are not going down the road of Canada, where it now is a problem for churches to have free speech. If they can still say, hey, we oppose it, he said. But even to have suggested, as strongly as he did, that he was not opposed to gay marriage is detrimental and demonstrates a small picture approach. Beck seems like a good guy. Hes thoughtful. Hes right on many matters in the culture war. For instance, when OReilly followed up and asked if Beck thought abortion threatened the United States, Beck replied dramatically in the affirmative. Abortion is killing, its killing, youre killing someone, he said. So I thought itd be worth it to calmly and persuasively share concerns with Beck on his approach. He may not read my email, but Im sure if enough pro-family folks were to get the message to him, hed reconsider his outlook.

I’m not sure why people are bringing up Rush on this issue, the past week he has been raking that judge in California over the coals. Albeit, he doesn’t give three hours every day to the issue, but he hasn’t ignored it either.
I don’t want to stone anyone. I don’t care what they do in the privacy of their abodes. I DON’T want to give them special rights based on abnormal behavior. I don’t want to make their aberrant behavior normal through the force of government.
To coin a phrase, ditto. Governing and adjudicating against the will of the people is the biggest offense in all this.
That’s the homosexual agenda.
Oh and add babies out of wedlock.
Long term shackers want everything those who have a civil union license couple have.
But yet they say whats a peice of paper, it will destroy what we have, we don’t need to have a church ceremony God knows we love each other, but yet they want the same rights as a married couple.
I just came to an epiphany. These people aren’t pro-gay marriage. They are actually part of Fred Phelps little bandwagon and what they want is gay marriage so Big Brother can have a list of all the gay people and they can go get them.
Right now the law doesn’t ask if you are gay, with gay marriage, it will slap a big purple triangle on all gay couples on government records.
There is a FOURTH area which the Progressives are seeking to destroy and that is the Traditional nuclear family. Mr. Beck has totally ignored this area of their attack, therefore he can omit dealing with homosexuals, homosexual marriage, polygamy, etc.
“Same with bigamy and polygamy (that latter, apparently okay with God of the OT).”
Don’t leave out slavery, incest, murder and genocide.
What about babies out of wedlock? Are you saying that the father shouldn't support what he wrought?
Long term shackers want everything those who have a civil union license couple have.
Again that's the gays.
But yet they say whats a peice of paper, it will destroy what we have, we dont need to have a church ceremony God knows we love each other, but yet they want the same rights as a married couple.
God never designed a union for two of the same. It is against God and against nature. God will punish unrepentant sin. Two of a kind cannot have children because it is an UNNATURAL "union". It produces nothing. It is void. It's only purpose is hedonism and selfishness.
It’s unbelievanle how shallow and self-centered some people are......when they claim that same-sex marriage (which is about same-ness, not diversity) won’t affect their marriage.....
In fact, it will effect the institution of marriage mand confuse and confound children...
If marriage is everything, then it is nothing
and if it’s everything, they why have marriage at all—and just let people do what they want?
Marriage is about law and order and has both a pubolic and private purpose....
Ann Coulter has never been married, whereas Rush Limbaugh has been married and divorced at least 3 or 4 times.....
Glen Beck likes to talk about his alcholism and quote the Bible like an unhinged idiot (we’re talking context here, not trashing the Bible).....and considers himself to be “libertarian”.
But this is a shallow libertarianism........because how exactly is the government staying OUT of peoples; business or private sex lives by giving marriage license to homosexual couples....
Marriage was meant to regulate homosexuality....like we regulate cigarettes and alcohol (admittedly not a perfect analogy).....because it potentially is a destructive force and was to be channelled into a more constructive and procreative one...whereas,
like meth, cocaine , or heroin.....homosexual couplings and sex were seen as destructive of public and private ends (no pun intended)-—and thus were banned or a best tolerated....
I guess Rush and Ann and Beck havr bought into the “gender studies” idea that we have at least 4 genders (male, female, gay and lesbian) instead of just two sexes....
Because if you don’t buy the “gender” garbage and believe in only two sexes and different kinds of sexual behavior.....then you don’t buy into the “discrimination” argument.
Everybody can get married under just one definition of marriage...so-called gays and lesbians aren’t being discriminated against, it’s just that they don’t WANT to get married under the current defintion of marriage and the social purpose it was meant to serve....
So they are free to remain single, just as much as somebody who doesn’t marry because they don’t want to be tied down and want to be a bachelor or bachlorette forever.....
I’m more inclined to think they are bleeding heart liberals on social issues with no common sense.
Gays can’t force Father into their political correctness.
He is very outspoken, like it or not. : )
God also said that it is a perversion and is wrong.
But you keep pushing gay marriage.
Problem is, Glen, it will pick your pocket when your children run off and marry, then divorce, and your estate gets dissipated among people who have no blood relation to you whatsoever, and don’t recognize the validity of your family.
coorect that.....”marriage was meant to regulate HETEROSEXUALIY as a potential destructive force”....whereas homosexuality was to be banned as ONLY a destructive force....if people want us to change the law and persuade us otherwise, then fine...but judicial coercion is wrong....
and why not just have NO marriage....It seems to me that courts could say “either everytbody gets married or nobody does”, thus they strike down marriage laws and nobody can.....at least that leaves it to the people instead of having judges abuse their power and just change the definition of marriage....
They already left it to the people in Prop 8, the people voted against the gay agenda.
Tell that to the photographer that was sued because she wouldnt photograph a lesbian commitment ceremony.
..Or tell it to THIS guy who was fired because some lesbian felt offended.......
