Mormons are trying to take over America Ya'll! Mormon Prophecy Behind Glenn Beck's Message
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dana-milbank/post_996_b_749750.html

In one of his first appearances on Fox News, Glenn Beck sent a coded message to the nation's six million Mormons -- or at least those Mormons who believe in what the Latter-day Saints call "the White Horse Prophecy."

"We are at the place where the Constitution hangs in the balance," Beck told Bill O'Reilly on November 14, 2008, just after President Obama's election. "I feel the Constitution is hanging in the balance right now, hanging by a thread unless the good Americans wake up."

The Constitution is hanging by a thread.

1. Mormons have been quoting this shit for years.
They were saying it when Clinton was Prez. They just have a kooky member of their cult with a national platform now.

2. Yep - as a missionary it was talked about often as well...
however it is no more than a faith promoting myth in my opinion... It hinges on statements in books that are not seen as doctrine today.

This statement on it from one of the LDS Prophets makes me laugh:

""When the people shall have torn to shreds the Constitution of the United States the Elders of Israel will be found holding it up to the nations of the earth and proclaiming liberty and equal rights to all men" (JD 21:8)

Guess they screwed that one up already since the Church was one of the main forces behind Prop 8!

More than you ever wanted to know about the white horse prophecy:

3. A pox on all religions.
They're all nutty and require a suspension of logic, reason and common sense to buy into.
