Topic One: A Mormon writer for the LDS Examiner declares a 200 year victory because Glenn Beck has succeeded in getting evangelical pastors to declare that Mormons are Christians. Is this not what we warned these pastors about? Did we not tell them this would happen? Topic Two: On his radio program on Monday Glenn Beck said, "As a member of a faith that is the only faith in American history to have an actual governmental document calling for the extermination of people based on religion; we are the only people in the history of America that has a government document from the 1800s where… that made it ok to kill a Mormon because they were Mormon; period. You've never, you've, you don't hear Mormons crying about that; but we understand; we've seen it before." Is this true? On October 27, 1838, the Governor Lillburn W. Boggs of Missouri issued an executive order that in part stated, "I have received…information of the most appalling character, which entirely changes the face of things, and places the Mormons in the attitude of an open and avowed defiance of the laws, and of having made war upon the people of this State." Now this changes this does it not? So it was not "because they were Mormon; period" but because some Mormons in Missouri were in "avowed defiance of the laws" and had "made war upon the people of this State." Is this not the second time in two weeks that Beck has not told his radio or TV audience the full story about an issue important to Mormons? He did not reveal the Mormon relevance behind the Bat Creek Stone and he did not tell his audience that some experts considered it a fraud. Is it not also true that he did not tell his audience the complete story behind the 1838 incident in Missouri? Glenn tells us to "question boldly". Perhaps more people should start to question Glenn's real goals and agenda with the growing talk of his Mormonism. Topic Three: Brannon reads excerpts from the 1912 book entitled, "Mormonism, the Islam of America." Here is just one example of the chilling information Brannon reads from this book by Bruce Kinney. Kinney documents this quote by Mormon leader Brigham Young, "I have many a time in this stand, dared the world to produce as mean devils as we can. We can beat them at anything. We have the greatest and smoothies liars in the world, the cunningest and most adroit thieves, and any other shade of character that you can mention. We can pick our elders in Israel right here who can beat the world at gambling; who can handle the cards; can cut and shuffle them with the smartest rogue on God's footstool…We can beat the world at any game. We can beat them because we have men here that live in the light of the Lord; that have the holy priesthood and hold the keys of the kingdom of God. (News, VI, 91). Commenting on this quote Kinney writes, "It is to be doubted if any more blasphemous statement can be found in the English language than the reasons why Mormons "can beat the world."
