Just read this in our local paper tonight. I was :puke: by the end of it. And I believe in Jesus!


'Jesus Camp' documentary likely to raise hackles

By Sandi Dolbee
UNION-TRIBUNE RELIGION & ETHICS EDITOR

September 9, 2006

There is talk that a soon-to-be-released film about the mobilization of evangelical children will give Al Gore's global-warming epic a run next year for Best Documentary Oscar honors.

While “An Inconvenient Truth” delivered an environmental gut punch to its audiences, “Jesus Camp” is a gut-wrencher of another kind.

There is, for example, the boy who believes he is part of the “key generation to Jesus coming back,” the girl who dreamily intones, “I feel like we're training to be warriors – but in a much funner way,” and the star of the show, a Pentecostal children's minister, who declares that democracy, in which every person is given an equal voice, is “going to destroy us.”
