I don’t care if Beck gives 50% of his income to the Mormon church. He is the one who said he and his new wife decided to shop for a religion. I didn’t just dream it up. Beck is not a born into the Mormon faith.

If your go to guy on life and Mormonism is Glenn Beck you are misinformed. If your go to guy on the right way to think and behave is Glenn Beck you are being led down the wrong path.

Genn Beck is a demented loon with a messianic complex. Glenn Beck is Lonesome Rhodes.

Your account was inaccurate, and as one of the most devout and devoted, and elite followers of Mormonism, he is indeed the man who knows about his religion.

Beck wrote a book on his conversion, and will have deep connections to church authority to make sure that he is correct on his religion’s teachings and his influence on the public.

Glenn Beck has to go through a process every two years from church leaders, to maintain his high status of faith and devotion and elite position within his religion.

Rather than being a casual Mormon, as you keep trying to portray, Glenn Beck is among the chosen, average Mormons are not even allowed to worship in, or enter the Temples that he worships at.

Did you know that only about 15% or so of ALL Mormons are considered to be "Temple Worthy"?

Kinda messes up their Forever Family pitch that they toss about so cavalierly.
