I have been listening to Glenn Beck for over a decade. He was a local talk radio host here in Tampa before most of you had ever heard of him. back then his show was a mixture of politics, humor and storytelling. It was a well rounded show with a little bit of everything for all audiences, regardless of your religion or political affiliation.
These days I can't seem to turn on his show without hearing him talk about how God chose him and how he is the messenger and divine providence, yada yada yada. I'm not a religious man. I have never seen the light, it's as simple as that. I'm not an atheist, I am simply a non-theist. I'm likely closer to agnostic, except I don't hold out any hopes for a greater power, I just try to be a good person and hope that whatever waits for me is willing to judge me on my character and not my beliefs. Anyway.....off topic a bit, sorry. How do you guys feel about the way that Beck has positioned himself as the messenger from God? I can't help but see a small bit of blasphemy in his message. We're on the same side, we're definitely aligned in terms of political perspective, but I can't stand it when he keeps propping himself up as "the one." It seems like a self-aggrandizing propaganda and appears to me to be the exact opposite of what Jesus preached.
How do you guys feel about how Beck has positioned himself?
