Glenn Beck is in Israel, holding a big rally supporting that country against its Islamic enemies and calling for solidarity with the Jewish people. What’s interesting, as Sarah Pulliam Bailey shows, is the way certain media outlets are confounding Beck, a Mormon, with “Christian fundamentalists” and “evangelicals” who believe that Israel is playing a role in Christ’s second coming.

On the other hand, some ostensibly conservative Christians are indeed embracing Beck and his cause. These include David Barton, the revisionist historian who claims that America was founded as a distinctly Christian nation and who maintains that Beck is a Christian on the basis of his “fruits.” And also TV Bible-prophecy preacher John Hagee.
