Unfortunately i think if he fails he significantly sets the streaming content medium back. Although with exception to a existing established network i think the Glenn Beck brand is one of the very few that could actually pull it off.
Glenn is absolutely religious and he is a Mormon. But he doesnt discriminate against atheists, agnostics, or people of different denominations and more importantly he never forces his religious views on people. I would say every 1 in 25-50 times he references God he lets you know what he means by God. Beck often uses the line in the Deceleration of Independence for what he means by God:

He says "creator" (or God) is whatever you want it to be, except for another person or entity like the government. I think he uses nature as a prime substitute for God if you dont believe in God. Its the idea that theres a greater importance then just our own and basic laws of humanity cannot be granted from others. God or Creator is a lot easier to say and conveys his point well.
When i first started to listen to Beck his occasional references to God turned me off, but once i heard him explain what he meant combine with the fact he doesnt force his beliefs on anyone i was cool with it.
