sorry mr beck


(CNN) -- An evangelical leader is calling for a boycott of Glenn Beck's television show and challenging the Fox News personality to a public debate after Beck vilified churches that preach economic and social justice.

The Rev. Jim Wallis, president of Sojourners, a network of progressive Christians, says Beck perverted Jesus' message when he urged Christians last week to leave churches that preach social and economic justice.

Beck told his audience that they should leave churches that preach "economic and social justice." Wallis says Beck compared those churches to Communists and Nazis.

Wallis says at least 20,000 people have already responded to his call to boycott Beck. He says Beck is confusing his personal philosophy with the Bible.

"He wants us to leave our churches, but we should leave him," Wallis says of Beck. "When your political philosophy is to consistently favor the rich over the poor, you don't want to hear about economic justice."

3. Where Were These Guys Before Beck Went After THEM?
Sure didn't hear any of them denouncing his hate until he focused it on him.

9. That's United Church of Christ. They are not Christian.
Evangelical church is the only church of Christ, the rest are blasphemous and will be judged.

14. Beck Talks cause he have a mouth
If you listing to Glen Beck real good, you will find out, is Brain is way small beside is mouth.
and if he bring you on, to he's show and you don't agree. Yes he will be mad
well, That's Fox News for you.
they will bring any Biddy to they network, they don't care how dumb or stupid you are, just got to know password
and I will give you the password (Hate democrats) "Your in"
Example Sara pallin - She so dumb she as to write and her hand "Uplift america spirit"
and just find out that Africa is a continent

Beck say, "The government should not use money to give a way free stuff, or to benefit people that don't wanna pay for what they getting, Then continue to say, I learn that at the library the books to learn there are free."
