Left Turn: Beck's war on Christians

Left Turn: Beck's war on Christians

It was bad enough, in July 2009, when Glenn Beck called President Obama a "racist" with a "deep-seated hatred of white people." But when, on Aug. 29, he finally apologized – 13 months later, the morning after his big rally on the Washington Mall – he only made it worse by attacking what he called the president's distorted brand of Christianity.
He shouldn't have called Obama a racist, Beck admitted to Chris Wallace on "Fox News Sunday." Instead, he meant to criticize Obama for being a follower of "liberation theology" – which Beck described as "Marxism disguised as religion."
"You see, it's all about victims and victimhood," Beck explained to Wallace. "Oppressors and the oppressed; reparations, not repentance; collectivism, not individual salvation. I don't know what that is, other than it's not Muslim, it's not Christian. It's a perversion of the Gospel of Jesus Christ as most Christians know it."
Now, honestly, I don't know whether or not President Obama knows anything about liberation theology. But I do. And I can tell you: Beck is dead wrong.
