Beck talked a lot about god during that rally, didn’t he? Did you feel a burning in the bosom when he talked?

It was a rally of renewal. Renewal of what what each person there already knew. And make no mistake, the vast majority of that crowd were Christians (not Mormons or Muslims or even Jews).

Actually, Beck's time behind the mic talking about God was not that substantial. But there were a lot of speakers who professed their faith in their Savior, Jesus Christ and not just the Christian pastor's (not Mormons) who prayed. Note, the only people to pray were Christian pastors (not Mormons or Muslims or even Jews).

Everyone in the crowd that I saw seemed to be very clear on their faith and weren't looking for answers from those behind the microphone.

Ultimately, I think Glenn will be drawn to the 600,000 rather than the crowd drawn to him. This rally was not about one person's message. Like the tea party, it seemed to be decentralized in that each person was their to make their own statement.

I actually do have some concerns about Glenn's intent. While I believe he is truly concerned about our future as a country and has genuine compassion for those he thinks will suffer, his focus seems to be temporal rather than eternal. For me, I strive to make my focus the glory of Christ and my eternal home. My circumstances will change, sometimes hard, sometimes not, and do not define me. This world is passing away.

And Beck was talking about the Mormon god*.

Even if he was talking about god* in a vague general sense it would have been a false god*.

The lack of discernment by American Christians is just appalling.

The irony here is that so called Christians went to hear a message of spiritual renewal, and yet by praying with an idolater, by cheering his call to god*, they may very well have called fire down on this country by the one true God.
