Absolutely You must have been waiting for that one... It took you one minute to reply.

Actually - I took you off ignore and up you popped -

[Believer1997]

I watched this interview - twice. Just to make sure I truly listened to her questions and his answers. He clearly states he is not a journalist (I think we all knew that) and said he is an "opinion guy" ... take him at his word - he's giving an opinion in a broad way to entertain... He claims that his audience are really people who don't want to "get off the couch" and they just want it broken down for them... I give his audience a bit more credit than being too lazy to change the channel or to form a lucid opinion when given accurate and unbiased facts.

As far as his Mormonism - he claims, as a recovering alcoholic, it helps with his sobriety and it helps him serve others - he said we are all born as God's children and no matter what you do, there is a path back to him - and it teaches him the truth ... that his family is sacred, and that they will see each other over the eternities ... I don't quite know what that means.

I agree with you, Dave, that his answer, at least to me, doesn't lead to life - but, we shouldn't depend on entertainers to lead us to - life everlasting.

Thank you for sharing the link to this - I heard it the other day and I did want to watch it again.

Sister,

I agree.

Here's the thing though and why I always urge folks caution with Glenn Beck. In the interview he agree's with Couric that peoples background necessarily colors and informs their decisions and forms a basis for their opinions. He expressly commented on Obama's former Pastor of 20 some years, Pastor Wright, as an example of what we should examine about Obama and I agree.

As a Born Again Christian what colors and informs my decisions and forms the basis for my opinions is the Lord, my Salvation, and the Kingdom to come.

However, the same applies to him. His own apocolyptic views, specifically involving this Nation, should be examined in Light of his confessed Faith in the Mormon Religion. We should hear what he say's through the lens of what inform his decisions and forms the basis for his opinions.

I agree with Glenn beck on alot of things. However, since I have been listening to him with an understanding of the False White Horse Prophecy I have seen glaring examples of Mormon Theology and his Religion pouring forth from his commentary and quite frequently to boot. So much so that I will not let my children listen to Glenn Beck anymore, if I am in the car with them I will turn him off.

Peace,

Dave

I agree with certain things he says - but, like you, I think we have to look closely at what colors and influences his opinions and comments - as we should everyones. There are fragments of truth .. and untruths in all the 'talking heads' - one must really look, listen, research and think... The only real, total and complete truth I find is in Jesus. Thanks Dave!

Isn't that the truth? This is why I always say we shouldn't put our head in a political box, blindly agreeing with Mr. 'D' or Ms. 'R'. Glenn Beck's okay sometimes but, like I said before, I just can't get past the Mormon thing.

Oh...my....that's just not good. I don't think I can listen to someone who goes completely insane over a call in. Such behavior is often a sign that all is not well with a person.

When one is saved, sound & secure in Christ Jesus, our Matchless Lord & Savior, one need not fear a Glenn Beck, even a Mormon Glenn Beck. The fallacies of its 19th-century peep-stoning, polygamous founder, Joseph Smith, Jr. of Sharon, Vermont & Palmyra, New York, are quite evident in the light of Holy Scripture. Smith was dead wrong on practically everything he touched upon including men becoming gods, Garden of Eden in Missouri, USA, the restoration of both Melchizadek & Levitical Priesthoods, celestial mariage, the way of eternal salvation, etc, etc. However, Beck when compared to either socialist Barack Obama or, as William Safire once called Bill Clinton's wife. a "congenital liar"referring to Hillary Rodham Clinton (Toronto Globe & Mail, September 28, 2009) the choice is a no-brainer. Please give me Glenn Beck (not Mormonism) as the next President of the United States of America beyond any doubt. If not Beck, then surely Sarah Palin in 2012.

God Bless The USA!

And how is Canada these days Arthur?
