up to 4:16 i agree. there is no moral teaching in school. faux news has always been bias. kids singing songs about the president have NOTHING to do with what the kids were fighting about. and another good point to note. as he claims. "we" are 15-25% of the population in america. which means, and i wonder, how many of those kids were of religious upbringings.
Once again, Beck shows what an ignorant fuctard he is by not realising that the vast majority of the children in this video were brought up on religious (namely, Christian) homes. Sometimes I wish someone would take a 2by4 to Beck's head... but then I let my morals take over and stop wishing for it, and instead wishing that he might gain some sanity. Also, his take on kids singing to Obama is hilarious, since I know he's seen Jesus Camp where the kids pray to a cardboard cut-out of Bush!
What Glenn Beck seems to fail to realize is that gang bangers are usually Christians... so those people beating on each other are most likely Christians... So when Christians act like typical Christians it's the atheists fault? So much fail...

Yet when we bomb countries killing by the thousands in the name of religion, detain, torture and its justified by some bullshit story about keeping us safe by installing more fear in us to support them. Our whole government is a gang funded by illegal activities, gun running, drugs, extortion so i see why they hate competition.
and while most european countries are significantly growing in atheism, have a MUCH lower crime rate than ANY country that has a primarilly religious population. weird huh?
so america, a country with only 10% atheist, and this is the ONLY report i have EVER heard of a gang fight that MIGHT have anything to do with atheism. And this fucker is exploiting the kid's death to use as propaganda against non believers, who he hates.
hey glenn, weren't women burned at the stakes only 400 years ago for being accused of being witches? Aren't woman, and people of other races considered inferior, or even evil in most religions? Doesn't atheism encourage science, while religion encourages hatred for people that are different? k eat shit, bye.
Glenn is right. The world has become worse. But not because of denying God, but just because of people like Beck who claim to have some knowledge of facts and life, even though they are immoral and simpleminded human beings who don't deserve to live.
He is acting like brutal actions like this are new to society or mankind. This kind of violence has existed for as long as humans have, essentially. Nothing has changed, humans are the same as they always have been.
Wait, what? We are better because we recognized God's authority?!? America is possibly the most mediocre country in the world now. We WERE Great because we offered liberties that other countries didn't allow. We were great not because of authority but for our pursuit of happiness, of freedom and our will to improve human conditions and the raising of the importance of human dignity. So, fuck you Glenn Beck. This isn't a problem of not loving God, its a problem of not loving your fellow man.

Let dinosaurs be dinosaurs. It takes time to evolve. You can't do anything about religion but watch it dissipate over time. More people are becoming less religious as we humans move on towards the future and the more we understand science...we already know that the bible contains passages that are illegal, stupid, and morally doesn't make sense. Religious people are losing their ground and they don't like it.
This is to be expected. It's like watching old american news talking about how dangerous blacks are and how women should do their job around the house.
Glen , you're powerfill because during WWI you sold WEAPONS to Germany, italy, Austria-Hungary and to Russia, the UK , France, then during WWII you did the same....in fact the UK finishe dpayign you back in 2008.
Well done Glen, let's totally ignore the biggest gang on the planet...the ROMAN CHRISTIAN CHURCH.
it spread two things across the planet, syphilis and the "good" book.
When Glen Beck says "as I watched that video, i thought to myself....", translated to what he really thought is "as I watched this video I thought how can I use this boys death to advance my own brand of facism".
The only reason most the world follows Christianity is because of the Roman. Judea Christian belief has brought nothing but death to this world. For example the story of Moses was actually just a Religious crusade in the name of "GOD" and the Crusades that came almost 1000 years later. The belief in God is not the issue but the belief in Religion is. No harm was caused by the Gods of the pagan beliefs like the Norse Gods, Greek Gods and Egyptian Gods. Religion is a crime against humanity.
THis wasn't caused by atheism. Hell, this isn't even caused by any religious belief. THis is caused by bad parenting and bad enviroment. The fact that Beck blames this on atheism just shows how deranged he really is.
He should have a conversation with an atheist. But he isn't willing to have a debate with someone that uses logic and reason to live their life. I'm an atheist, but I DO NOT want the government either. I want to live my life without intervention, and without the use of force by your god, OR any man. It's also funny that he talks about atheists wanting government, then goes on to say how the government of america was founded on God. Way to cover all bases you parasite.
"How did we get to this place?" I will tell you, we have been here, in "this place", since the dawn of mankind. Oh wait maybe you are right glen, maybe christmas carols will save the youth from violence. What a brilliant idea glen....
Instinct, motherfucker. You understand how biology works? These guys were just fucking morons. There's no real moral boundaries, just smart and good people, and idiotic fucktards. These guys were like goddamn cavemen; They acted on impulse and don't know how to not be dicks who are just slave to their instincts.
I like the way Glen Beck tries to put the blame on others. He is basically using the Hitler method. Hitler blamed the Jews for violence, just as Beck is doing with the Athiests. Good job turning us into the Nazis that you are trying to protect us from so dearly you dumbass.
I will keep this in mind when I think about the numerous Crip and Blood gang members w/ crosses and Bible verses tattooed on their bodies along w/ the many Cholos who will proudly kill a child in a rival gang's neighborhood but act like a little bitch if someone disrespect the Virgin Mary. I will keep the KKKs and Neo Nazis in mind as well. Along w/ 99+% of the US prison population, can't forget about them. Yep, atheism has to be responsible. Because only atheists can do such things. Not theists
Competition is a contest between individuals, groups, animals, etc. for territory, a niche, or a location of resources. It arises whenever two or more parties strive for a goal which cannot be shared.
The more competative our society is the more problem's we will face.
And let's not also mention the millions of deaths caused by Godless societies like Marxism (In total, Marxist regimes murdered nearly 110 million people from 1917 to 1987) or Pol Pot (1975-1979 killed 2.5 million of his own people), Mao Zedong's regime is estimated at minimum 45 million and this amount varies up to 70 million since new death records uncover more details. The list goes on and on... 'Rational' you say...
@CJNecros You forgot to mention that they were totalitarian Communists, similar to theocracies minus God. One thing you idiots continue to fail to do is provide something that link their killings to atheism. However, atheists can easily link the killings the religious institutions have committed to their religious doctrine. History isn't on your side.
@HybridD91 Haven't met an atheist yet who doesn't punctuate his argument with personal insults. it demonstrates your intolerance of people with a different view than yours and lends more weight to the argument that atheism did play a major role in the actions of the aforementioned exponents of an attempt at creating a utopia without God. And because atheism has no foundation for morality, as we're all just a collection of particles, it can't provide us with a foundation for intrinsic human value
@CJNecros Sorry, I was to busy reading the bible and laughing my bollocks of to give a fuck about my grammar or spelling. My bad. Did you know eating shrimp means you have to go to hell? BAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHHA
Nice "viddy" clip dullard beck.. When people get violent belief goes out the window. Lets see, so you're telling me people are being assaulted in a ghetto? say it isn't so...
seriously? as bad as things are today with violence, the past was far worse. at least now we can seek justice in these cases. does he have any idea how long violence and cruelty have been with humanity? im not even going to touch on what violence has been caused by religion, which is by far the most evil of all philosophies.
God got pissed off at the human race and drowned us all. All the animals were just innocent bystanders. Hell to you Glenn ... you need a "swwweeet video clip" for your show.
In atheism there are no moral absolutes. People want to do whatever they feel like doing like an animal and not feel guilty, so they remove God from there conscience so they can live life any way they want without the fear of having to face God on judgment day. But they will be in for a rude awakening. Those in the inquisition were not even Christians, they did not even obey the teachings of Jesus, but many atheists act like those in the inquisition, maybe even worse!
@SoldierOfChrist110 can you really be that stupid? I hope you realize that one of the world's largest private charities is run by an atheist. How many wars have there been over atheism? You show me something that says an atheist has done something bad and i can show you worse things that christians have done.
@SoldierOfChrist110 Yes I do idiot. Give me one small amount of evidence that all atheists are immoral other than your wild accusations that we have no conscience. Unlike you we do not believe that we have any more lives beyond our earthly one. Thus we try to make the best of our lives as we don't expect there will be anything afterwards. I don't think you even know any atheists.
@SoldierOfChrist110 A christian is someone who follows the teachings of jesus and the new covenant is the supposed new relationship between man and god mediated by jesus. This changes nothing. You still yet to provide any evidence for your claims.
@sunset261 And yes, you are correct. A Christian is a follower of the teachings of Jesus Christ. So when someone professes to be a Christian and then goes against the teachings of Jesus is he/she a Christian or a hypocrite?
@SoldierOfChrist110 Jesus said himself that not a single bit of the old law would be changed until all had come to pass. Is that moral to you? Are the old testament laws moral to you. In the old testament the god of the bible was a vengeful tribal god that advocated slaughtering non-believers. Not exactly one i'd want to worship regardless of his behavior in the new testament.
@sunset261 So you ignore the mountain of scriptures in the new covenant that tell us over and over again to love one another and turn the other cheek and to flee sexual immorality etc, and yet to focus on one verse that you have ripped out of context. Do you even know what law Jesus was referring to? Have you even read the teachings of Jesus and the apostles?
@SoldierOfChrist110 Who said I was ignoring them. Yes, i do know what law he was referring to. He was referring to the old testament law as he explicity tried to clarify that he had not come to abolish the law. Why would he say that if he was referring to his own teachings?"The Law" also typically back then referred to the old testament law and that alone.
@sunset261 Correction, the new covenant law is different. Read this:
(Matthew 7:12) Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets."
So what is the Law? The Law is to love and treat people as you want to be loved and treated. Jesus was referring to the moral law. But yet you ignore the verses that tell us over and over again to love each other and to forgive. You just don't know what the new covenant is.
@SoldierOfChrist110 Yet I already showed you how he's clearly not talking about that since he had to clarify that he hadn't come to change it. There was no new covenant law before jesus so he wouldn't have had to clarify. The only law he could be referring to is the old testament law. Plus, he makes that statement before he says the new covenant law in the sermon on the mount so clearly he was saying that the old covenant law is still valid.
@sunset261 But Jesus made a new covenant. Have you not read the mountain of scriptures that tell us to love each other, to forgive, to turn the other cheek etc? I quoted you where Jesus says that to treat people as you want to be treated is the Law. You don't even know what the new covenant is. Once you find out come back and debate me.
@SoldierOfChrist110 Holy crap. You just seem to be ignoring everything i'm telling you. It clearly says in Jesus' sermon on the mount that the laws that were laid down in the old testament have not been changed, does it not? this means that yes indeed the bible still condones the things that were laid down in the old testament. Yes he lays down some other laws but, since he said that the old ones aren't invalid, it's left up to one's own interpretation on what the concrete law to follow is.
@sunset261 You still don't get it. Jesus was referring to the moral law, which is why it says to treat men as you want to be treated is the law and the prophets. How could Jesus make a new covenant if the old covenant was meant to be kept? You just don't understand. You ignore the mountain of scriptures that tell us to love and forgive each other, but you cherry pick a verse out of context to twist Jesus' meaning.
@SoldierOfChrist110 Did you just ignore everything I said? I showed told you multiple times why he was clearly referring to the old testament law but you seem to keep ignoring it. I'm not cherry picking it. Read it yourself he said that line before he even laid down the moral law that you're referring to. If he was referring to the new covenant law why would he have to clarify that he was not there to change or abolish it?
Trying to figure out what is wrong with America, Beck? Here it is! Having a "journalist" praise god and blame atheists, without any facts, on national TV.
this man obviously know nothing about his religion which allow and encourage slavery, violence, killing, incest, human sacrifices, genocides, sexism, homophobia, and ultimately hate toward those who has different belief or have no belief.
@SoldierOfChrist110 So what? The old testament does time and time again. Nowhere in the new testament does it say that the old testament laws are invalid.
How dare you Beck blame atheism for this atrocity. How dare you insult the millions of law abiding, moral atheist citizens of this country. Did you ever read the bible of your religion? The bible that endorses slavery, rape, incest and murder. Maybe they got their morality from there. The majority of atheists in this country have far greater morality than the god of your religion. You truly are an ass.
The fuck? How do you come to the conclusion that Black gang members, many of which I am sure were raised in an AME church, killing a black honor student is the fault of atheists? Its just unfathomable that you can get this conclusion.
But Barack Obama is real. He would have tried to save that kid. God, even though he is supossed to be all powerful, didn't ... think before brainwashing.
Taking a tragic event like this and hijacking it to lend credence to your own empty arguments is more foul then the death of a child. Glenn Beck, you are a true pig.
@cchris000043 ha more than millions there was over 6 million in world war 2 alone. Then there was brutal murders by the catholic church including thing as breaking peoples spines cutting them in half by making them sit on a pointed seats with weights attached to their feet. Then theres the current wars in iraq and afghanistan. Religion causes problems and gets innocent people killed. FUCK RELIGION
Well, let's start with at the beginning. Railroad ties are 4x4 you moron. That doesn't even look to be a 2x4. This young man's death is a tragedy but as for religion providing the basis for ANY morality. Maybe they read their bible and thought he was an amalekite, you retarded douchebag!
"I'm thinking about killing Michael Moore...I could kill him myself, or if I would need to hire somebody to do it,... No, I think I could. I think he could be looking me in the eye, you know, and I could just be choking the life out." --Glenn Beck
LETS CELEBRATE OUR FREEDOM, LOL. Fuck I hate most Americans. Because you mother fuckers sit there and watch this shit, and take it in as if it were indisputable fact. If you didn't, it wouldn't be on air, because it wouldn't be getting ratings. Sweet Jesus you are a race of brainwashed, programmed, falsely "patriotic" SLAVES. You can't go to a doctor unless you're subscribed to a big private corporation...what the fuck is that? You watch a show that BLATANTLY insults everyone who isn't Christian
@JustABSide I will agree with you on some of what you said. We in america were raised on a lie which many people aren't aware of. I am an atheist and I'm pretty happy with myself and my life. Beck is wrong about this one. Knowing that this is my one and only life, I want to make it a good one and not fuck it up by doing something stupid, or acting like ignorant trash like the people in the video are. I bet ALL of the people in the video were some form of christains. That, or muslims.
@AWillsMusic See but you're still just helping the stereotypes, and the hate spread dude, by saying it was christians or Muslims. Who gives a fuck, it's one incident. There have been atheists that have been involved in that shit, Muslims, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, Jews...is doesn't matter, everyone can act badly sometimes, religion or no religion. To have this on the air, and connect it to people that don't believe in a God, is just plain fucked up.
Does this guy not realize that the least religious countries have some of the lowest violent crimes? America is still one of the most religious countries in the world and has some of the highest crimes...it almost seems like the EVIDENCE is making the exact opposite conclusion.
Oh your God!!! This guy is unbelievable! Bet you he's got some serious, dark secrets. It's always the same, all those dudes taking the moral high ground, publicly patronizing the masses in their own self-righteous ways, they are usually the ones who do the worst shit in their private (secret) lives...
yes Glenn beck, I'm sure that those gang members did all those horrible things because more people have embraced rational skepticism with regards to religion. good fucking job dumbass. because we all know that gang violence has only ever been perpetrated by atheists. please
Not sure what a bunch of GANG MEMBERS acting up has to do with the rise of atheism. Or the "worshipping" of barack obama.... That was sure patriotic of him to mention how he likes the battle hymn of the republlic though....
I don't know why people assume that if you don't have faith in a deity, you have to have faith in SOMEthing. I find fervent nationalism and even materialism to be as repugnant as religion, personally.
I like the 'LIVE FOX News' icon in the corner- Glenn Beck's apoplectic rants qualifying as news typifies the attitude of this bullshit organisation. Oh and as if religion hasn't caused enough violence in the past.
Hahaha. Glenn is one of my most favoruite comedians by misstake.

Well done Glen, let's totally ignore the biggest gang on the planet...the ROMAN CHRISTIAN CHURCH.
it spread two things across the planet, syphilis and the "good" book.
When Glen Beck says "as I watched that video, i thought to myself....", translated to what he really thought is "as I watched this video I thought how can I use this boys death to advance my own brand of facism".
That's the truth.

The only reason most the world follows Christianity is because of the Roman. Judea Christian belief has brought nothing but death to this world. For example the story of Moses was actually just a Religious crusade in the name of "GOD" and the Crusades that came almost 1000 years later. The belief in God is not the issue but the belief in Religion is. No harm was caused by the Gods of the pagan beliefs like the Norse Gods, Greek Gods and Egyptian Gods. Religion is a crime against humanity.

He should have a conversation with an atheist. But he isn't willing to have a debate with someone that uses logic and reason to live their life. I'm an atheist, but I DO NOT want the government either. I want to live my life without intervention, and without the use of force by your god, OR any man. It's also funny that he talks about atheists wanting government, then goes on to say how the government of america was founded on God. Way to cover all bases you parasite.

The world is run on Competition.
Competition is a contest between individuals, groups, animals, etc. for territory, a niche, or a location of resources. It arises whenever two or more parties strive for a goal which cannot be shared.
The more competative our society is the more problem's we will face.

And let's not also mention the millions of deaths caused by Godless societies like Marxism (In total, Marxist regimes murdered nearly 110 million people from 1917 to 1987) or Pol Pot (1975-1979 killed 2.5 million of his own people), Mao Zedong's regime is estimated at minimum 45 million and this amount varies up to 70 million since new death records uncover more details.

@HybridD91 Haven't met an atheist yet who doesn't punctuate his argument with personal insults. it demonstrates your intolerance of people with a different view than yours and lends more weight to the argument that atheism did play a major role in the actions of the aforementioned exponents of an attempt at creating a utopia without God. And because atheism has no foundation for morality, as we're all just a collection of particles, it can't provide us with a foundation for intrinsic human value

In atheism there are no moral absolutes. People want to do whatever they feel like doing like an animal and not feel guilty, so they remove God from there conscience so they can live life any way they want without the fear of having to face God on judgment day. But they will be in for a rude awakening. Those in the inquisition were not even Christians, they did not even obey the teachings of Jesus, but many atheists act like those in the inquisition, maybe even worse!

@sunset261 So tell me, what is a Christian and what is the new covenant?
SoldierOfChrist110 7 months ago
@SoldierOfChrist110 A christian is someone who follows the teachings of jesus and the new covenant is the supposed new relationship between man and god mediated by jesus. This changes nothing. You still yet to provide any evidence for your claims.
sunset261 7 months ago
@sunset261 And yes, you are correct. A Christian is a follower of the teachings of Jesus Christ. So when someone professes to be a Christian and then goes against the teachings of Jesus is he/she a Christian or a hypocrite?
SoldierOfChrist110 7 months ago
@SoldierOfChrist110 Jesus said himself that not a single bit of the old law would be changed until all had come to pass. Is that moral to you? Are the old testament laws moral to you. In the old testament the god of the bible was a vengeful tribal god that advocated slaughtering non-believers. Not exactly one i'd want to worship regardless of his behavior in the new testament.
sunset261 7 months ago
@sunset261 So you ignore the mountain of scriptures in the new covenant that tell us over and over again to love one another and turn the other cheek and to flee sexual immorality etc, and yet to focus on one verse that you have ripped out of context. Do you even know what law Jesus was referring to? Have you even read the teachings of Jesus and the apostles?
SoldierOfChrist110 7 months ago
@SoldierOfChrist110 Who said I was ignoring them. Yes, i do know what law he was referring to. He was referring to the old testament law as he explicity tried to clarify that he had not come to abolish the law. Why would he say that if he was referring to his own teachings?"The Law" also typically back then referred to the old testament law and that alone.
sunset261 7 months ago
@sunset261 Correction, the new covenant law is different. Read this:
(Matthew 7:12) Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets."
So what is the Law? The Law is to love and treat people as you want to be loved and treated. Jesus was referring to the moral law. But yet you ignore the verses that tell us over and over again to love each other and to forgive. You just don't know what the new covenant is.
SoldierOfChrist110 7 months ago
@SoldierOfChrist110 Yet I already showed you how he's clearly not talking about that since he had to clarify that he hadn't come to change it. There was no new covenant law before jesus so he wouldn't have had to clarify. The only law he could be referring to is the old testament law. Plus, he makes that statement before he says the new covenant law in the sermon on the mount so clearly he was saying that the old covenant law is still valid.
sunset261 7 months ago
@sunset261 But Jesus made a new covenant. Have you not read the mountain of scriptures that tell us to love each other, to forgive, to turn the other cheek etc? I quoted you where Jesus says that to treat people as you want to be treated is the Law. You don't even know what the new covenant is. Once you find out come back and debate me.
SoldierOfChrist110 7 months ago
@SoldierOfChrist110 Holy crap. You just seem to be ignoring everything i'm telling you. It clearly says in Jesus' sermon on the mount that the laws that were laid down in the old testament have not been changed, does it not? this means that yes indeed the bible still condones the things that were laid down in the old testament. Yes he lays down some other laws but, since he said that the old ones aren't invalid, it's left up to one's own interpretation on what the concrete law to follow is.
sunset261 7 months ago
@sunset261 You still don't get it. Jesus was referring to the moral law, which is why it says to treat men as you want to be treated is the law and the prophets. How could Jesus make a new covenant if the old covenant was meant to be kept? You just don't understand. You ignore the mountain of scriptures that tell us to love and forgive each other, but you cherry pick a verse out of context to twist Jesus' meaning.
SoldierOfChrist110 7 months ago
@SoldierOfChrist110 Did you just ignore everything I said? I showed told you multiple times why he was clearly referring to the old testament law but you seem to keep ignoring it. I'm not cherry picking it. Read it yourself he said that line before he even laid down the moral law that you're referring to. If he was referring to the new covenant law why would he have to clarify that he was not there to change or abolish it?
