Glenn Beck: The Jews Killed Jesus

How many times, and in how many ways, can Glenn Beck insult and offend people of different ethnicities than himself – and get away with it?

I missed this morsel from earlier this week, but Keith Olbermann picked it up:

Beck: “Jesus conquered death. He wasn’t victimized. He chose to give his life. He did have a choice. If he was a victim and this theology was true then Jesus would have come back from the dead and made the Jews pay for what they did, that’s an abomination.”

Olbermann correctly pointed out that it was the Romans who crucified Jesus and that most Christian doctrine, including the Catholic Church, repudiated the accusation against the Jews. Although Jesus may not have made the Jews pay, generations of his followers picked up the cause and still endeavor to extract payment to this day. And now we can count Glenn Beck amongst them.

The discussion of this subject occurred during an interview with Alexander Zaitchik, author of Common Nonsense, Glenn Beck and the Triumph of Ignorance, a highly recommended read. Watch the video from Countdown:

  1. I’m confused. Soooooo, according to Beck, Jesus had a choice. I guess that makes Jesus pro-choice.

    • 🙂 If Jesus was not a victim and chose to give up his life, then he lied when he said that Judas betrayed him?

  2. Sadly, the poorly written, one dimentional, impotant, invisible Jewish zombie was never anything but a good way to sucker the knuckledragging, jeebus cum-swallowing douchebag inbred teatard red-necks I’ve been fucking over sice Shaved-Monkey Bush was appointed by his daddy’s whore residnet of amerikkka.

  3. So now he’s lowered himself to Jew baiting. His demented thinking could have Jesus slipping a derringer out of his belt buckle the way Paladin used to do in tight situations. That would fix their ass.

  4. Oh, I have had it wrong all along, I thought Jesus was a Jew. In fact somewhere in the dim dark space that acts as my memory I had visions of the ‘King of the Jews’ being made to wear a crown of thorns. Thanks for the History minus the facts lesson Glenn. You Dill.
