Christians stand up to Glenn Beck

Glenn Beck has picked a fight with me, but he recently started a more troubling battle with the nation’s churches with his criticism that "social justice" is "code" for "communism" and "Nazism," and that Christians should leave their churches if they preach, practice or even have the phrase on their Web site. While Beck initially [...]

A two-week old report by the Washington Post is only now gaining traction in the tech section. It appears that Apple has boycotted Fox News based on Glenn Beck and his ludicrous statements, including calling President Obama a racist and branding progressivism a “cancer.” “More than 200 companies have joined a boycott of Beck’s program, [...]

The Sanctity of Glenn Beck’s Prized Frivolous Prop is Being Desecrated

Glenn Beck’s famous chalk board, which he uses for drawing serious arguments about policy with chalk, is being treated with great disrespect by Grover Norquist’s advocacy group, Americans for Tax Reform. Beck presented his very grown-up toy to the A.T.R. during this year’s C.P.A.C. conference, and they promised to stare at it during their weekly [...]

What did I miss?! I was lollygagging in London while Glenn Beck was beating up on believers who, he claims, have been duped into doing Marxist missions under the guise of helping the least, the lost and the last. That’s what I learned this morning as I tried to catch up with faith news after [...]

Glenn Beck: Wrong Again

Could this be a trend? Yesterday, while Glenn and his every-willing sidekick anguished over the Constitutional-ripping of the new healthcare bill vote, Beck assured his grieving, tea-party revolutionaries, not to worry. With the vote, President Obama would no longer be able to lead. His proof – wish I had a blackboard here – no president [...]

Glenn Beck Puts on ‘Mask of Christianity’ While Betraying the Teachings of Jesus

It took Glenn Beck just a few days to respond to all the blow back he received for telling people to “leave their church” if it mentioned social justice, a tenet prominent in many Christian circles. In so doing, he took the only route he felt comfortable approaching in avoiding any of the specific criticisms [...]

Jon Stewart Skewers Glenn Beck’s Massa Interview: Like Opening Al Capone’s Vault

Can anyone blame Jon Stewart for not being able to resist Tuesday’s epic Eric Massa, Glenn Beck interview? No. And Stewart is in top form here, especially for those who missed either the interview or the lead up to it (as per usual, even Stewart can’t quite match the phenomenon of the real thing). Stewart’s [...]

Crazy Beck Claims The Census Will Increase Slavery

If you had a doubt about how crazy Glenn Beck is, those doubts are now gone, because this story proves he is crazy as a loon.
