Argument Against Idiots
Posted by obama the antichrist on January 15, 2009
Glenn Beck is my media man of choice. If you dont know who he is, then you are seriously missing out! He is a conservative radio talk show host, who also had a show on CNN. He was unfortunately kicked off that network. But do not fret! He was offered a job at FOX News and he accepted. His show will premiere Jan 19, and be on weekdays at 5pm!
Now to my real post. On Glenn’s show he has a segment called “Argument Against Idiots”. My personal favorite is the “Spreading The Wealth” and i will post it here for your enjoyment 🙂
The issue:
‘Spreading The Wealth’
What the liberal whiners say:
‘I don’t know why you, and Faux News are so upset over Barack Obama telling that plumber that he wants to “spread the wealth around”, and help out those not doing well in this country.’
‘All I know is that I’d rather get some of that money instead of Big Oil getting all the COPORATE WELFARE they get!’
‘All I know is that it’s finally time that the middle class gets a break in this country…the middle class is disappearing!’
Your winning, logical, reasoned arguments
1. Well, I can only speak for myself, but “spreading the wealth” as Obama put it, with the GOVERNMENT in charge of the spreading, is Marxism. I’m opposed to Marxsm in America.
2. We’re back to big oil again? Let me tell you about their “corporate welfare”. Last year big oil did pretty well, right? Well so did the U.S. Government, thanks to the taxes they paid. Exxon-Mobile paid $27 BILLION in taxes last year. That’s as much tax from ONE COMPANY, as the bottom 50% of tax payers…one company paid in taxes, the same as 65 million people. And by the way, their adjusted gross income tax rate was 3%…Exxon’s was 41%.
3. Have you ever heard of working harder? Getting more education so that you can get a higher paying job? And yes, it’s true that about 10 or 11% of the middle class HAS disappeared from the middle class…BUT…that same 11% has reappeared in the upper-class.
(this argument is taken from http://www.glennbeck.com/content/articles/article/198/16809/“)
This is a little dated, I know, but the issue is still relevant.

It is a good read. Here is some information you might not know, but maybe you do:
Focus’ political arm, Focus Action, recently removed an article from its Web site about conservative talk show host Glenn Beck – a Mormon – because it offended some of its evangelical followers.
Focus spokesman Gary Schneeberger said Monday that the story was put online through an “oversight.”
“We did not aim to signal theological compromise, which some of our base were concerned about,” Schneeberger said. “In no case do we intend to alter our clear distinction as unwaveringly grounded in evangelical theology.”
The controversy started Dec. 19 when Focus Action’s Web site, http://www.citizenlink.org, posted a freelance article by Karla Dial on Beck and his new book, “The Christian Sweater.” Beck hopes the book will “spread a more eternal sort of gospel,” Dial wrote.
Some readers felt the article was proselytizing ideas of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

CNN last year traded away its good name in exchange for debuting Beck’s factually challenged and hateful brand of broadcasting, at least CNN execs were getting a ratings boost out of the Faustian bargain. Today, Beck’s still making a mockery out of CNN’s reputation on a daily basis, as he disparages liberals, gays, Democrats, blacks, immigrants, and Muslims at will. But in return, CNN’s now stuck with a Beck program that’s trapped in neutral and shows signs of sliding into reverse

I don’t mean to convey the belief that Mormons are ‘bad’… I know / am sure that most are good people ( to the extent that people can be good) who unfortunately believe in Joseph Smith and his lies. It just amazes me that people can actually believe that they will eventually become a god themselves, equal to God and rule their own planet. Where’s the reverence for God in beliefs like that? Where’s the humility? You would just think that their “red flags” would go up. And that is one of many examples.
OTA… I didn’t say that Glen Beck doesn’t have valid points… I’m sure he has lots of valid / good conservative points… I just can’t get behind a person who follows Joseph Smith’s teachings…. I could never be a ‘fan’. Very possibly, I am wrong… showing prejudice.. I guess the part about him proselytizing is what is really bothering me… if it weren’t for that I would be more accepting of him probably.
And incase anyone is wondering… there is a difference between (true) Christian proselytizing and Mormon proselytizing. I’m not being a hypocrite.

Caveman, not all religions are totalitarian by nature. Some are the complete oposite. I will not judge other people by thier beliefs that was a vow I took on my own infront of the mirror when I turned my back on the Christian Church. How can you say someone’s beliefs are wrong because they conflict with yours? Kay it is fine you are not going to your hell because there are Mormon’s in the world. Mormons are just as brainwashed as the rest of Christianity. ANd here is one good reason biblically why it is plausible for a man to become godlike. It is because we have the divine spark or the breath of life as it is told in the Genesis fable. When God found out Adam and Eve ate the apple he said “Now they are like us.” God never said there were not other gods. He said he was the only God to be worshipped. All of this is paraphrased or in one case exactly phrased by Christian Myth.

EE.. the reason I’m not going to hell has nothing to do with Mormons. And of course I disagree with the idea that true Christianity uses ‘brainwashing’… true Christianity is based on facts… and you can either take them or leave them… it’s that simple… all of the other stuff is the result of man’s free will and not the fault of TRUE Christianity – which is having Jesus in your heart.
There are a couple of saying in the Bible that can be interpreted to support Smith’s ideology… IF you WANT to interpret it that way. This goes back to my point that the Bible can be interpreted pretty much however a person wants to interpret it… it ultimately, clearly comes down to what is in your heart… if you have let Jesus come into your heart you can’t go wrong.
