It doesn't matter whether or not I buy it.
A people without an animating principle will wither and die.
These revivals have happened before, and have driven American history.
It is in the American DNA.
Beck has tapped into it.
That is why he is successful.

Explain in your terms the mentality of the 'Christians' who landed on this Continent and took by force the Lands away from the Nations and destroyed the cultures of people living here for centuries. The Spainish and other Europeans who took over everything from one Pole to the other.
It doesn't matter anymore. His message rings true for many, if not most Americans. It has taken root and grown beyond who the catalyst was that started it. He took Americans back to their roots, their founders, and looked at our history, not from what a modern-day analyst's commentary with their own agenda had to say, but from the words, letters, communications back and forth, our historical founders' OWN debates....the greater picture....and started a new debate, a new revival, a new enthusiasm for restoring American honor and truth.
His programs are full of documented history. He has an uncanny ability to connect the dots, but he always....always....tells his viewers not to believe him, but to do their own research and homework. I think many of his critics just don't want to do it. It takes them where they don't want to go. Oh, well! So be it.
He is simply not ashamed to stand up for this country's foundational principles. That's OUR culture and most Americans don't want that destroyed or fundamentally changed.
I'm not religious, but I'm also not turned off by the renewal of what religion means at its core. So the words "God" and "church" and "faith" don't bother me in the least. He will say things like "I'm a clown", "I'm an entertainer", "I'm not a politician", "I'm just a family guy raising kids".....but, if you listen to him in his entirety and not take the parts away from the entire body, you will "get" it.
So this is about using Christianity as a political tool? Jesus died so the GOP could regain power?
2 Corinthians 11:13-15 KJV
13 "For such [are] false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ."
14" And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light."
15"Therefore [it is] no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works."

In my terms, ahh man I don't know where to begin LOL. When I read what you're asking me to do, the first thing I thought of was Winston Churchill's thoughts regarding this subject. He said once, "I do not admit that a great wrong has been done to the Red Indians of America, or the black people of Australia. I do not admit that a wrong has been done to these people by the fact that a stronger race, a higher grade race, a more worldy wise race, has come in and taken their place." I don't know if Churchill was a Christian or not, but that quote pretty much sums up the mentality of those good Christians who arrived on this country.
Something I find ironic is, Churchill was a racist, but he's still considered a hero both here and in the UK for standing up to the poster boy racist, Hitler. At the same time, the people you and I are taught to idolize in this country fought for freedom from Britain. Those same freedom fighters took the tyranny that they learned from the British, and practiced it upon the Indians, the blacks, and others. Again though, these are good Christians. This country is built upon Judeo-Christian values as we're often reminded by Conservatives.
Jesus saying, "I never knew you" can be applied to many.
So this is about using Christianity as a political tool?No, Bizzy, it is not.
Jesus died so the GOP could regain power?
That's what you are so scared about. So, your fear causes you to miss the bigger point.
Just because two people are crazy as fuck does not mean they get along. No they would not get along, the dubbers do not like anyone who is not a dubber. They may say he has a point about gay marriage or bringing god back to the minds of people, but no they would not get along. They are both tin foil hat wearing idiots that should be shot and stuffed to show what happens when you lose your mind and rant hate speech.
