Yeah ya gotta have a temple recommend to find out eh ???

Not really, but at least listen to the prayers at the event.

Really only takes about 10 minutes of listening to not sound like an absolute idiot.

Not too much time or effort really.

But at least an honest mind.

SIGH....guess it's time to post THIS again. Maybe YOU should listen for ten minutes.

 

The reaction to Beck's rally shows we are a nation whose public schools -- and even Christian & private schools -- have a failing grade on teaching critical thinking. Just watch the first 4 minutes into the rally. Beck was already covertly spouting Mormonism in his rally speech.

#1, Right off the bat, Beck provides the Mormon narrative -- but in a broad enough way where what he said could also be references to how we treated slaves and Native Americans in our early country's history.

At the 2:18 mark, Beck says: "For too long this country has wandered in darkness and we have wandered in darkness in periods from the beginning."

Somebody needs to ask Beck point blank what "darkness" he was talking about right "from the beginning" of this country:

Hey, Glenn: Were you talking about slavery?
Our treatment of Native Americans?
The so-called "lost gospel" of Christianity til 1830? (All three?)

You see, per Mormonism, whatever light was emerging in the 1770s was a mere "set-up" so that over 50 years later Smith could proclaim his "restored gospel." (IOW the primary purpose American freedom served was so that Smith could proclaim his version of the gospel)

The phrase Mormons and Mormon Missionaries use to describe this supposed complete darkness from the 1770s to the 1820s was a "universal apostasy." Until 1830, says Mormons, the darkness of Christian apostasy was the supposed order of the day.

Glenn Beck three minutes into his speech:
At the 3:00 to 3:05 mark, where were the alarms going off in minds engaged in critical thinking when Beck jumped off his Mormon diving board?

Note several things as you read the following: What Beck says next applies to B.C. times (not A.D. Mayflower days, although yes, he then references the pilgrims). And, yes, although Christians interpret themselves to also be God's "chosen" people, Beck uses the term "chosen people" to reference the Jews. B.C. Jews.

Beck: "5,000 years ago, on the other side of the planet, God's chosen people were led out of bondage by a guy with a stick who was talking to a burning bush. Man first began to recognize God & God's law. The chosen people listened to the Lord."

With Beck's very next sentences comes the Mormon narrative: "At the same time those things were happening on THIS side. On THIS land. Another group of people were gathered here, and they, too, were listening to God. How these two people were brought together again happened because people were listening to God."

OK, quiz, class. What two groups of people was Beck referencing in this speech BEFORE he moved on to later history and the pilgrims?
(a) God's chosen people in the East -- those who followed Moses and God's Law.
(b) Native Americans

And per Beck, did these two groups come together? Beck: "How these two people were brought together again happened because people were listening to God."

Now class, what source teaches this? That the Jews & Native Americans came together to listen to God's Word in B.C. Americas? That's right. If you're usin' your critical thinking skills -- The Book of Mormon.

Just to emphasize, so that you don't get confused when Beck fast-forwarded to talking about the pilgrims: What two other dynamics did "Professorial Chalkboard" Beck describe at the rally in his version of "history":
(1) It was the "same time" (same B.C. era) as Moses and those he led. [That rules out the Mayflower gang]
(2) Whatever was happening in the Middle East -- people listening to God in B.C. times, per Beck & per Mormonism it was also happening "on THIS side." (The word "This" was Beck's emphasis)

Guess what document teaches that? That's right. Joseph Smith's Book of Mormon. B.C. times. The Americas.
