Glenn Beck is top rated jackass. This guy should have a HAM radio, NOT a talk show. Total shock jock loser.
On his first day back from vacation, Glenn Beck addressed the earthquake in Japan, and said he thinks that it could be a "message [is] being sent" by God.
Speaking on his radio show Monday, Beck said, "I'm not saying God is, you know, causing earthquakes," before quickly adding, "I'm not not saying that either."
He then said that whatever one called God, "there's a message being sent. And that is, 'Hey, you know that stuff we're doing? Not really working out real well. Maybe we should stop doing some of it.' I'm just saying."

More crazy guy standing outside the subway logic from good ole Glenn.
 
He's getting crazier by the day.

I've pretty much tried to refrain from getting into all the Fox News/Glenn Beck brouhaha that goes on at DP since I've been here.

But I've got to say, WHAT THE ****? This is worst than what Pat Robertson said. At least Robertson gave a reason for why he think the Haitians deserved what they got.

And I thought God is omnipotent? If He's not causing earthquakes then say who is!
 
/facepalm

:shoot
 
I don't think he's crazy; he's just using crap like this to get attention.
 
What are we doing that is so wrong? And when did Beck join the Westboro Baptist Church...
 
I don't like Beck, but I also don't like Huffopo which is insane and biased. I would like to hear the full context and implications of his statement.
 
It's a message from god when it happens to perceived others.

Oh, is he protesting funerals of our military with hateful signs?

WOW, the only conclusion i see Beck is saying and what he believes is that he thinks GOD may show symbolism in the events of the earth. He wasn't making an argument that the Japanese deserve what happened to them or that GOD intentionally sent an earthquake to destroy them. He was just looking at the big picture like "all these bad things are happening all around us, are we doing something wrong?" . When bad things happen you always wonder whether you did enough to prepare for them, whether you could have been more careful or done more things. He wasn't relating this to JAPAN at all, he even showed how prepared they were as an example. He's applying this to how in America we see how things are happening but are not doing anything to prepare or aren't actually doing anything to help the situation.

This is overall an emotional religious argument that i don't really relate to( because im not very religious or emotional), but even i can tell what the guy means. Hopefully you kinda at least understand what he's meaning and not just sniping a quote and broad-casting all over the place b/c you hate Beck.

Since Beck is not a guy that is super politically correct in the way he speaks, i think it throws people off who are just not used to people on T.V. talking in this way. In a personal conversation people aren't as nearly careful with there words to express thought's and feeling's, people freak out when he uses his references on GOD and different side comments he makes. You really need to look at them in context.

I don't agree with the guy on a lot of stuff, but i do like him. He is the kinda guy that doesn't give a !@#$ whether an idea is "unpopular" or not. And i like that, i think it drives all of us closer to truth when you actually consider all thought's and evidence on an issue, and not trying to always be politically correct or just trying to make sure no one is offended. The real world is offending to most lol

Listen to the audio and decide for yourself.

Is he really a paranoid loon or does just play one on TV?

do you have a point?

No. God does not hate.

God did burn down Sodom & Gomorrah and flooded the Earth because of sin. Is that what happens everytime we have a natural disaster? Frankly, I really don't know, but some people believe it with all their heart. If you don't, fine. I don't see what the big deal is.

:lol: So God's punishing people for something that a completely different government and generation of people did, benevolent bloke, isn't he?

And what'd New Zealand do?

Christians believe in the Old Testament. God did use destruction to make a point.

Your second comment is ridiculous and ignorant.

It's right by Australia. What could be worse.
