I never ceased to be amazed by the pure hate displayed by some so-called Christians, (such as the author of this idiotic hit piece,) a religion that commands us to love one another, as Jesus did, and does in His everlasting life.

In the battle for this nations soul and survival, let's make sure that, every day, we post something to run down another leading Conservative!

Thank you for helping elect more Obamas!

Agree, whether it's Beck, Mormons, Catholics, this sect, that denomination, this preacher, that preacher, GIVE IT A REST.

The enemy is clear, obvious, and dangerous and it's NOT the people on our side.

You miss the point entirely. There is not a word of hate in this article and you should stop using "hate" as the all-purpose attack word as the Left does.

The article refutes Beck's faith and what he has written in his new book. That is not hate, but discernment, scholarship and legitimate criticism.

McMahon is warning people about the false doctrine of Mormonism and the corrupting influence of new age-y practices espoused by Beck and Ablow. I agree with him 100%.

I was wondering how long it would be before Beck started to leverage his stature within Conservatism to evangelize for the LDS church. Tea Partiers need to be very careful that their movement is not co-opted by Beck or others who may have ulterior motives.

You do understand that vast numbers of black and white so called “christians” of the communalist leftist christian socialist movement were who put obambi in office. They are at it again, the “true christian” leftists in academia, and in the pulpit- black, white, hispanic... misdirecting the flock to continue to support one-world progressivism. While Beck rails against Wilsonian progressivism, he is working for increased power for one sector of belief. Much like the Kennedys and Irish in Boston and beyond. Religion is political in all reality, so this discussion is of merit as an opposing scriptural view, and examining the interesting nature of Beck’s “conversion”, which is human. Much in the same way Beck has examined Soros. For biblical Christians both these individuals bear watching.

Even as obama goes to brazil to get his cash kickback for his 2012 campaign from Petrobras for preventing any new drilling in the Gulf, per Soros and the US DOE subsidy award to Petrobras, conservatives (big C, small govt.conservatives) need to be vigilant. The leadership void is what is most important to fill. Beck is helpful as an educator to several lost generations, and the Bereans are valid in their spiritual critique and not so much in their political critique.

As a country we learned early NOT to be socialists, nor to put our trust in anything but a limited government. And that government would be limited by the proper actions of people of belief(Federalist Papers), and in fact could not survive without those beliefs and proper self-control. The tent should be big and accepting for this kind of conservatism,and not some competing theocracy. We need another Ronald Reagan.

Well, let's see. Fishtank is a conservative.
You're running him down.
As Dr. Thorne mentioned, you've gone on the attack vs. Fishtank with the all-purpose leftist word of "hate."

And by your own personal standards (not mine), having now attacked Fishtank, I guess that makes you guilty of violating that standard of love...meaning you must "hate" Fishtank.

That's what's always self-refutingly funny on these threads. So many posters rush into comment like they are some kind of thread ref, postulating upon others' perceived violation of their personal standards.

But if disagreeing = "hate" -- which is what the left's lexicon says ... and if these posters like Mindbender disagree with content posted...well, that means their words apply to themselves. Because as posters, they are not ref-moderators, but "players."

Why don't you try applying your own personal standards to yourself, Mindbender.

Conservatism doesn't save anyones soul. Mormonism doesn't save anyones soul. The Jesus of the Bible does.

Likewise...

I never ceased to be amazed by the pure ignorance displayed by some CONSERVATIVES, (such as the author of this reply,) a political philosphy that commands us to adhere to the laws of our Founding Fathers.

THEY, at least, were well versed in what the BIBLE instructs on what to do when faced with a blasphemous claim such as MORMONism.

Oh, please.

Romney is not the nominee, nor is he the only electable Republican candidate. Take your hurt Mormon feelings and save it for your fast and testimony meeting.
