Glenn Beck's "Twelve Values": Personal Responsibility

2 Comments

Paul

In all your posts, so far, you have taken Mr. Beck's words and injected his faith into them. Why do this when he, obviously, did not?

I believe Mr. Beck is trying, and succeeding, in leaving his religion out of his political messages. There were some who did not vote for JFK, or any other catholic, because they believed he would allow the Pope or the church to influence his decisions. They learned that their fears were unfounded.

That Mr. Beck believes in God and in this country should be reason enough to give him the benefit of the doubt and NOT bring up religion when he himself hasn't.

"Judge not lest ye be judged."


With all due respect,

Because One's Worldview Matters

Glenn,

To answer your question is simple: one cannot divorce their worldview from all their subsequent actions. Glenn Beck's worldview is Mormonism. Hence, his Mormon worldview affects everything he writes and stands for, and in this case it stands for that which is no different that what he's fighting.

As for your misinterpretation and misapplication of Matthew 7:1, at least understand what the verse means before you use again next time.
