The first part of the movie Jesus Camp.
Jesus Camp follows several young children as they prepare to attend a summer camp where the kids will get their daily dose of evangelical Christianity. Becky Fischer works at the camp, which is named Kids on Fire. Through interviews with Fischer, the children, and others, Jesus Camp illustrates the unswerving belief of the faithful. A housewife and homeschooling mother tells her son that creationism has all the answers. Footage from inside the camp shows young children weeping and wailing as they promise to stop their sinning. Child after child is driven to tears. Juxtapose these scenes with clips from a more moderate Christian radio host (who is appalled by such tactics), and Jesus Camp seems to pose a clear question: are these children being brainwashed?

October 16th, 2008 at 13:47:43 "by all means"? I AM a Christian. Try that on for size. A lot of things frighten me terribly. That is one of them.

October 16th, 2008 at 14:56:40 So, here's the problem. I am, by all means, a Christian. And this frightens me terribly.
October 16th, 2008 at 15:19:39 You have to almost shed a tear at the site of children's minds being destroyed in front of you... How many of these kids will grow out of this? half? two thirds? Still not nearly enough, this is a scary form of fear driven religion that should be destroyed.
