Richard Hughes, author of the recent book Christian America and the Kingdom of God, has some strong words for Glenn Beck in The Huffington Post.

When Glenn Beck advised Christians to “run as fast as you can” from churches that preach “social and economic justice,” he told us a lot about Glenn Beck.

Clearly, the man knows little or nothing about the Bible, the Jewish religion, or the Christian religion. If he knew even the most rudimentary facts about those religions and their sacred texts, he would know that there is no theme that receives greater emphasis in those texts than justice for the poor.
