Sometimes, you watch something and it just leaves you sort of speechless. You’d like to laugh, but the content wasn’t intended to be funny. You’d like to be outraged, but the content is too ludicrous to take seriously. But then, it is Glenn Beck.

It’s all so clear now. The tiny minority of American atheists are to blame for all of the country’s problems. Damn! We’ve been found out. But it’s too late. We already have one of our own in Congress. Pete Stark (D-CA) may be the only elected federal official who’s an atheist, but he’s wielding unimaginable power, crushing the 400 plus Christians in the House and making them bend to his subversive will.

If only Stark and his godless minions could use their powers for good rather than evil. But alas, we did not know that the United States only held its place as an economic and military superpower over the last half-century because we were God’s favorites. (One supposes God wasn’t too fond of us for the first 150 years of our existence when we were little more than a global footnote. Maybe the founding fathers didn’t truly recognize God’s authority as Beck does. )

Honestly, maybe Beck should consider a transfer to the Eternal Word Network?

And by the way Glenn… the new dollar coin is not missing the phrase “In God we trust” (as you state at the beginning of your diatribe), it’s just been moved. Also moved, and now co-resident with “In God we trust” is “E Pluribus Unum”, or out of many, one. I’d be inclined to observe that being fractured, divided, and pitted against one another so that we can’t act as one on much of anything is far more destructive to the fabric of America than atheists ever will be. If you truly want to know how it is we “arrived at this place”, what subversive force is undermining the country, then maybe you should tune in to Fox News about 5pm.
