The crowd is rowdy with occasional chants of “USA, USA” or “Glenn, Glenn”

A crowd of possibly 300,000 is expected at the Mall on Washington, DC for Glenn Beck’s Restoring Honor rally in front of the Lincoln Memorial. We plan to cover it “live” from his Facebook streaming audio.

Lots of surprise guests will be showing up for this blend of religion and patriotism. Last night at the Divine Destiny rally at the Kennedy Center, evangelicals Twila Paris, Dave Roever, and Chuck Norris all made appearances.

Today’s rally will feature veterans who will be introduced by Sarah Palin, Alveda King (niece of Martin Luther King and pro-life advocate), and David Barton.

Watch it on the web, it is much better, I have CSpan on TV volume on zero, and on my laptop. The laptop is better when I compare them.

I understand, but this is still big news ie >100,000, maybe 300k people in DC. Fair and balanced reporting would report it.

All of this is very unChristian. It does not emphasize the exclusivity of CHrist but presents a generic God. Therefore Glenn shouldn’t be calling it Christian and Christians should not be making like we’re all worshipping the same God, because we aren’t.

I would be perfectly happy for them to call this a political rally of religious people but let’s not call it Christian or minimize these differences in theology. I could not pray with Glenn Beck, as a Christian.

If you don’t like it, maybe you can make it to the Sharpton rally. The Jackson Rally is in Detroit if it’s closer.

Otherwise you don’t need to comment or even click on the thread.

That was rather harsh. She posted a reasonable criticism of what he has said. I didn't realize we had to agree 100% with Glenn in order to post here..

CNN (don’t watch the cable channel - only checked in
for coverage) is coverning the Al (the racist) Sharpton’s
event in D.C.
Isn’t that special?

"I find it rather curious that one would view this event and be motivated to log onto a message board and proclaim to the world that he/she “could not pray with Glenn Beck.”

She is posting her opinion as a Christian. I understand her point of view. I don't necessarily agree with it, I don't even consider myself a "Christian", but I see no need to tell her off like he did.

those who are worried about the truth might do that.

You do know that the person who started this thread has similar concerns?
