Glenn Beck: "Someone in the Vatican told me I am to be a warrior against the forces of darkness!"
BECK: "We are entering a - we are entering a dark, dark period of man. Um, I was, um, I was in the Vatican, and I was surprised that the individual I was speaking to knew who I was. And they said: 'Of course we know who you are. What you're doing is wildly important. We're entering a period of great darkness, and if good people don't stand up, we could enter a period unlike we have seen in a very long time.'

It was odd to stand in the Vatican and hear those words. Of all places that would understand the Dark Ages. We are dealing with people who want to deconstruct the world. They say they are for progress, but their progress is to deconstruct. Their progress is to go backwards. Instead of inventing our way out of something. Instead of heralding achievement and merit, they destroy it. Instead of respecting life, we devalue it."

Of course, Beck doesn't clarify whether the "individual" he talked to was a Vatican official or a tourist from Omaha, but the impression he wants to give his listeners is clear: the Vatican itself has identified Beck as "wildly important" in the coming "dark, dark period of man."

1. Someone in The Vatican would anoint a Mormon to do The Church's work?
I don't think so . . . . .

2. The "great darkness" is over
that was the past 8 years - and just now the truth is barely starting to see the light - with the Vatican's crimes and the last administration's crimes.

Beck is turning into Jamestown. He'll be handing out the kool-aid soon it sounds like.

5. I wouldn't take that as a ringing endorsement.
The Church's leadership is not exactly the standard for morality and social justice.

12. The endorsement of The World's Largest Child Rape Racket is not something to be proud of.

14. He talks about understanding the Dark Ages
What better place for understanding than the Vatican for they created the dark ages. They do not want progress for they want to live with their traditions. With progress they may lose their hold on people.
