This shit looks scary...

"We're being trained to be God's army"

Very worrying, I'm pretty sure they've missed the point there.

...but not as disturbing as this:

"Well Noah's ark is real, and The Millennium Falcon is fake..."

Really? Right...
WTF was that????

When living in the Virginia I was exposed to a little bit of that Southern Baptist religious extremism and to be honest it was a little shocking but that video clip is downright mindblowing.

This just makes me so glad that I grew up in Canada where I went to Hockey Camps in the summer and not to Christian Revolution camps...not to say they don't exist in Canada, but if I were to hazard a guess, the VAST majority of these camps are operating South of the Mason-Dixon line.
That is scary and I do believe in God but I DO NOT believe in radical religious nuts like that. Is it normal for kids that young to be acting that way? I don't think so.
Wow. It will never cease to amaze me when I see people pushing their own beliefs on to those who are so young. I can understand giving your child a nudge in a certain direction, but that's completely deplorable.

What gets me is the unbelieveable irony of it all.

On the one hand you have George Bush criticising Muslims etc for breeding generations of religious extremist, and on the other, there are kids claiming to be "being trained to be God's army" in his own back yard.
i kinda feel nauseous after watching that.

Exactly.
I can't believe I have stopped puking long enough to write this response.
Yikes. That's just plain scary.
Dear Jesus Campers,

It has come to my attention that you are indoctrinating your children into mistrust and violence in My Name.

May I call to your attention to commandment number two (or three; your version of the True Word may vary): the bit about taking My Name in vain. I think the point of that one may have escaped you. What you are doing now qualifies.

Be advised that I have had it about up to here with this shit. I am sick and tired of freaks and nutbars who invoke My Name to justify hatred and violence. You assholes are giving Christianity, and indeed, religion in general, a bad name. I will not have my reputation trashed by two-bit weirdos like you.

Kindly cease and desist, before I sic my lawyers on you. You will find the senior partners easy to recognize. There are four of them, and they like to ride horses.

yrs,

God

That sums is up perfectly!

The Bible is the true word of God to them... but only the bits that they want to believe.

As a devout Christian, I am not even close to being offended (honestly, I'm not being sarcastic). People like this make me sick. Though, I wonder if God's language would be quite so scatological...
Religion is the cause of most of the World's problems. I'll leave it at that.
Well, considering I have Snake Handlers for cousins..
That is all pretty tame.

(i kid, i kid - about the tame part)

And this camp is in North Dakota..

I worry about the stress being put on the children.
They don't need this kinda of pressure on them. Those
tears don't look like happiness to me.. I wonder
if this is the stuff that makes Abortion Dr. Killers.

Giving children a false sense of security that believing in God will
cure them of all their problems and
they can change the world is a very frightening thing.

The movie is a documentary, I can't wait to see this..fascinating.
