GLENN BECK Bashes Christians for Voting Trump: “Evangelicals Have Not Been Listening to Their God” (VIDEO)

During his speech today in Utah Glenn called for Mormons to rise up.
..
“Utah has an incredible opportunity. So many Christians have been standing up. But all throughout the South the Evangelicals are not listening to their God. Let us raise a standard in Utah."

I guess that isn't the god from the planet Kolob that Beck's mormonism worships. :confused:

Good lord.... Well can't say I'm surprised.

Mormonism is, in my opinion, not much different than most other religions in that they hold to ridiculous texts as literal truths in the face of observable science.

He's trying to make sure Cruz stays over 50% today.

In Utah, Cruz probably will.

Yeah... but looking at the polls I don't think it makes much difference now. Trump has a fairly straightforward path to the nomination, as much as I hate to even ponder such a notion.

Cruz can slop up a few more delegates here and there, but it's all but decided.

By the way, Kolob is a "real" planet in mormon belief, and it was in battlestar galactica as kolob- whose creator was mormon.

I just have to wonder about people who think this way (and I very much get along with most Christians, most of my friends/family are Christian)

1. If you are dying from a knife wound and a doctor happens along must he be Evangelical in order to treat you?

2. If not, why does a Pres have to be Evangelical? He is going to do a job, and that job is not to be your preacher or spiritual adviser.

3. I can understand not wanting someone in there who is hostile to your faith and might try to make laws against you, but that aside, who cares how many times he prays as long as he will defend your religious freedoms?

4. Finally, how many Rep have clutched their Bibles and invoked Jesus name over and over and then got in office and royally screwed us all?

He definitely has a lot more slack than Cruz, it could still come down to CA

Even though Trump gets some Evangelical support, Evangelicals generally form his main opposition in many states.

Glenn Beck is a TV and radio personality. He is not any kind of moral or spiritual authority to speak to evangelicals.

Glenn Beck's a jerk- most Mormons are not- can we leave their religion out of this.

that's always been the funniest part to me. christians blasting mormons for not being real christians, or that mormonism is a "cult"

anyway, if Glenn is the most vile Mormon out there (outside of Warren Jeffs), then the Mormons are still in good shape in my book.

How is leaving Glen Beck's religion out of it possible from a comment where Glen Beck blasts some else's religion?
Or where he's asking followers of his religion to rise up?

I'm not ridiculing Mormons, I'm trying to honestly describe their religion, and translate what Glen Beck is saying.

Also, I liked battlestar galactica well enough when I was a kid, and had no idea at the time it had ideas from mormonism in it. (although cyclones might not be part of mormon belief).

Glenn Beck being a Mormon has no relevance. (We have plenty of Mormon libertarians. i.e.: https://www.facebook.com/LdsLibertarians/ ; http://www.ldsfreedomforum.com/ )

Glenn Beck being a MORON, however, has a lot to do with his comments. :D

I wasn't accusing you of ridiculing Mormons...I was explaining what Ender meant by that post.

They have Caucuses now in Utah. Does that mean that people's votes are not secret? That could result in a lot of peer pressure in Utah...

You didn't stutter, but do you mean Cylons? Or maybe cyclones beat you up as a kid? I must know to decipher the Beck revelation...

...no not really. :D;)

I'll take a stab at translating what Beck is saying:

Fear, pride, fear, pride, cha-ching, cha-ching
