Yeah, and isn't Beck a Mormon? I don't think you can buy alcohol on Sundays in Utah.

Beck sounds like a Christian Extremist. Just like those Muslim Extremists. Hypocrit!
I work MANY Sundays...and guess what!? God doesn't mind because he knows I have to pay bills!!!!!!!!!
Beck reminds me of a few of the alcoholics that used to frequent a pub where I once bar tended. Most of them were actually decent people at their cores, but their brains worked a bit differently. Mostly to do with feeling persecuted.

He just hasn't figured out that he isn't fixed yet (alcoholics can still display mannerisms, moods, and thought processes associated with alcoholism, even when they are dry). Sometimes I wonder if he is really free from the bottle completely.

A Being with the ability to create matter from nothing would be able to proportion a week better so we don't have leap year or ever increasing days.

Nope. Not a joke. Listening to the audio is even better than reading about it.

Jerry Falwell would be proud.

Many Christians dont believe you should work on Sun that is their choice. Doesnt mean you must believe or agree
You must forget what country you reside in. We are not ALL Christians. And, also state and church and not brothers in this country. Go bible thump somewhere else.
