Beck: "[U]nless Jesus comes down," opens "a clinic and heal[s]" us "himself, there cannot be a right to health care"

So if Jesus didn't say it, we don't get it? Where is that in the constitution... He also declared SEIU "Enemies of the state"

Glenn..I think you need mental healing.

That's the bottom line with these people: health care is not a right. It's really sad. And it's really sad that he invokes Jesus in saying it. It's one of the least Xtian beliefs I can imagine.

You're right Glenn... "there are times when to call people racists..." according to you, "when they are the President"

Is this country founded through divine providence??? No, of course not.

It's not a God given right, it's the right of an enlightened society.

I don't want God anywhere near my rights! I don't want religion anywhere near my health care.

There are far too many crazy people who believe their right to kill other people came straight from God... so don't invoke God into any argument with me.

I think this guy has officially lost his mind.

With no offense meant towards sane religious people...

Thank you, God, for fighting and dying during the Revolutionary War so that Americans didn't have to.

Thank you, God, for writing the Constitution since no human could possibly come up with such an important document.

Now, I am not a religious man, in fact, I personally am athiest. But even if I were religious, this quote would be upsetting. And here is why:

Matthew 4:23-24 And Jesus went about in all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of disease and all manner of sickness among the people. 24 And the report of him went forth into all Syria: and they brought unto him all that were sick, holden with divers diseases and torments, possessed with demons, and epileptic, and palsied; and he healed them.

Sounds like Jesus opened a clinic and healed us himself

ah beck. one problem you seemed to forget about.

there are so many religious right people thumping bible interpretations.

jesus healed the sick. he didn't discriminate he healed a number of sick people. most well known im sure is the leper. jesus asked for no fee.

so one could interpret that as free health care if you would like.

nice try becky

Beck...aren't you a Mormon??

So you believe this...but you don't believe we have a right to health care... sigh

In Mormon theology, the Mormon god lives on his own planet and has many wives. Since the Mormon god is an exalted man, he, along with his many wives, have physical bodies of flesh and bone. As a result of their physical nature, they can produce children and do so continually throughout all eternity. Although the Mormon god and his wives have physical bodies, the children they produce are spiritual in nature. These spiritual children have a function by providing the covering for the "intelligences" that pre-exist. These intelligences become enclosed in the spiritual bodies of the children produced by the Mormon god and his wives and are the completed souls of human beings. The Mormon god and his wives continue to produce spiritual children for the "intelligences" to inhabit for thousand or even millions of years. The spiritual children live on the planet with their heavenly father and do what ever is required of them as sons and daughters. This time of existence on the planet of the heavenly father is called the "pre-existence" and also referred to as the "first estate".

Whoaa...! Divine Providence? This country is a sacred land? Why...because we behave so well and treat our fellow man with respect and decency?

And about Jesus, Glen...Jesus would hate American politics. So leave him out of this.

If there's one thing I know about Jesus, he's against the poor, the meek and the infirm and surely he'd deny people help.

Oh give me a break. If Jesus came down the first thing Beck and his ilk would do is ask to see his birth certificate for the simple fact Jesus is not blonde haired and blue eye- and doesnt speak english! They have an Hollywood and European idea of who Jesus was

I guess Glenn does not read the bible. I know, what am I thinking? I am actually expecting a good fearing man to actually read the good word. This is from Matthew 25:31-46:

34"Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.'

37"Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?'

40"The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'

41"Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.'

44"They also will answer, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?'

45"He will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.'

So Jesus did actually cover health care.

REVEALED: From deep inside the recesses of Glenn Beck's brain, scientists have documented the average Right-wing nutjob's mental image of Jesus.

I suggest, before Beck invokes the name of Jesus Christ, that he read Matthew 25:31-46. Jesus Christ was very specific as to what his followers were to do for the "least among us."

As a Christian, I find Beck's use of Jesus Christ in his hate speech offensive and blasphemous.

This man's hatred know no bounds. I spent time yesterday sending emails to his advertisers saying I would no longer support them.
I guess rights are only for the people that can afford them

I have always believed we should follow what Jesus said about rendering unto Caesar. I live in a secular country, not a sacred one, I have freedom to practice my religion, but I also have freedom not to practice my religion or anyone else's. Glenn Beck is a Mormon, he does believe that the United States is God's chosen land, but I don't want to live in a Mormon Theocracy.

So, Becky is implying we shouldn't act like a "Christian Nation" and provide health care to the masses. Brilliant

Rights can only be decreed by Jesus?

Becky, why do you hate democracy?

Glenn has a point. I remember when Jesus came down, opened a gun shop, sold assault weapons, and proclaimed "We surround them."

Is he kidding? The one thing Jesus did was provide healthcare to the poor. It's Jesus' most famous thing!

Were there two Jesuses?

Because the guy Beck's always talking about seems as much a prick as he is.

I said it 2 days ago. This was coming soon. If anyone wants to take him down for good he has opened wide for it. this needs to the talking point for the next two days and he will go into rehab.

God doesnt give a right to free speech either...that right comes from man. So I guess Beck doesnt have the right to free speech after all.

So our rights come from Jesus, not the Constitution? Then I suppose the SCOTUS should swap justices for priests.
