Conservative commentator Glenn Beck hosted a rally on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. on Saturday. The theme of the rally was "Restoring Honor in America."
Beck's message was simple: If America is to remain the greatest nation on Earth, it must return to its roots. That means upholding the Constitution that our forefathers gave us. And it means returning to God. Our country was founded on Christian values and principles, and that's the reason it has prospered all these years.
Today, though, various groups are trying to expel God from America. The country is now in chaos. It is faced with a faltering economy, deteriorating moral values and government corruption. Glenn Beck is right on. Our nation must return to God.
Hundreds of thousands of people turned out at the rally and seemed to embrace Beck's message, but Beck himself came under attack for holding the rally.
The rally was not a political event, but the godless liberals attacked Beck for his commonsense conservative views. Beck was also accused of racism because the rally was held on the anniversary of the famous Martin Luther King, Jr. "I Have A Dream" speech and the rally was staged on the National Mall where King marched.
Sadly, some Christian groups even criticized Beck. Beck is a Mormon, and some said he was trying to force his Mormon religion on America.
I don't think he was. I don't know exactly what Mormons believe, but it sounded to me like Beck was just trying to urge people to seek God again. That's the message Americans need to hear, and it's the only thing that can save this country.
As Beck himself has said, he is not a politician, and he's not an evangelist. He is simply a concerned citizen who loves his country. I wish we had more Patriots like Glenn Beck!
