I agree with you. The left has learned the lesson of “the enemy of my enemy is my friend”. Too many on the right need to learn the same lesson. We can quibble about flags and uniforms after the battle.
Join the club...these 'Beck Bashers' must all be MSNBC employees...they want Beck taken down by any means necessary...
You will pray with any man, but would you pray to any god?
Why did you post both of this “pastor’s” little blurbs in two different posts? Seems like one is more than enough. Just curious.
The prize is not an earthly election or even the temporal salvation of a nation.
Philippians 3:14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
You made a good point.
This pastor was signalling more to Glenn haters than to Glenn.
Who can find fault with the absolutely awesome event last Saturday? I have watched two of Glenn's evening programs regarding the Aug. 28 event and a video. It was so awe inspiring.
In India worshipers pray to thousands of gods.
The electorate is responding in a strongly unified voice against ObamaScare, Cap&Tax, and the generally communist and dangerous direction of the Obama, Pelosi, and Reid agenda.
Nitpicking against each other over trivial religious garbage is a luxury we cannot afford.
This post will not last long, and does not deserve to.
I am not Mormon, but Mormon bashing is not allowed here.
It is really stupid to go off on these rants, besides, Beck is doing a great job of carrying the battle against the enemy now.
How many times is this thing going to be posted?? sheesh
How wonderful that God in his infinite wisdom decided that you should post a singularly unhelpful essay.
Your guess is as good as mine as to why He would want you to breed religious dissension on a political web site, but it is said that He works in mysterious ways.
Can you be a God in mormonism?
Good questions.........
[/sarcasm]
I am about as Fundamental as it gets, and even I can see the Devil striving to stop this in it's tracks.
Beck had rabbis, priests, and even an imam or two up there with him, which makes him LESS of a bigot than some. Any Imam willing to stand tall with a plan for keeping America strong and full of liberty FOR ALL makes even me think there may be one or two honest Muslims, and after the last decade, that is saying something. The time for bickering is after we throw the devil out of office. Then I will be delighted to have you go head to head with those with a different godview, and I hope you convince them...after Obama is gone, hopefully in an orange jumpsuit, or barring that, at least Congress has changed hands. Until that time, Wormwood, take this outside.
Ben Franklin said it, I believe: "If we do not hang together, we shall all hang separately."
Oh brother...it’s all interpretation. Muslims would disagree, so would wiccans - no one wins these “My God is real” arguments.
You can't dismiss Christianity with that trite of a sentence.
BILL PRESS, RADIO TALK SHOW HOST: I was there.
O‘DONNELL: So, look, on a typical summer Saturday on the mall, 80,000 is not a big deal. That‘s just the flow through traffic of tourists. What is your sense of how many people there were actually Beck supporters? Like what percent of the crowd? Half the crowd, three-quarters of the crowd?
PRESS: First of all, I‘m glad to know that Glenn Beck is channeling Keith Olbermann. I wish he listened to him more often, Lawrence. I have to tell you, I give him credit for getting a big crowd. Look, they pumped this—they pimped this on Fox News for about a year. There were more than 80,000 people there, I believe. I don‘t know. I‘m not a counter. I‘d give them 100,000 anyhow. I think it shows the power of Fox News to attract that many people.
I think it also shows, which is a little worrying to me, that there‘s a lot of energy on the other side. And the energy is not with our base. The energy is with the Tea Partiers these days. They were out.
O‘DONNELL: Getting a crowd there is pretty easy. I‘ve been on a lot of film shoots on the mall. And you‘ll get 20,000 people watching a film shoot that they didn‘t even know was going to happen that day. Let‘s get to what Beck said. Beck said that America today begins to turn back to God. But as Steve Bennen (ph) at “Washington Monthly” points out, the question of whose God Beck is talking about has been racing around the Internet all day. The “Christian News Wire” says, for example, quote, “Glenn Beck promotes a false gospel, however many of his political ideas can help America.”
They also said on “Christian News Wire,” “our country was founded on Judeo-Christian values. Mormonism is not a Christian denomination.” Is this—how strange is this for Beck trying to be a religious leader of Christian conservatives who don‘t regard his religion as something that they can follow?
PRESS: Look, it is totally bizarre. First of all, the guy is a talk show host. I‘m a talk show host. He‘s nothing but a talk show host. And he‘s suddenly metamorphosed, after two years of just total politics, slamming Obama day in and day out—he‘s suddenly metamorphosed into some combination of religious hot stream, of some combination of a Jimmy Swaggart and an Oral Roberts. And then he says Obama‘s problem is he follows Liberation Theology, which he calls a perversion of the Christian gospel.
Let me tell you something, Lawrence, we don‘t need a Mormon to teach Christians what the gospel is all about.
O‘DONNELL: Author and radio talk show host Bill Press, thanks for getting out there on the mall for us, Bill. Your accounts are invaluable.
Thanks, Bill.
I was hoping to see some "born again" bashing as well, but evidently his profile page is still under construction.
Good grief indeed! Maybe God does have a great sense of humor by inspiring a Mormon to organize a rally like that to again awaken His people.
Thank you God and thank you Glenn for the work you do.
