Jesus Camp - Click HERE for Original Thread

GOT BOOST
Hi Everyone,

I just rented this documentary from Rogers Video today.

Now, as most of you know I am fairly neutral and keep an open mind. This review is not meant to offend you, your family, or any religion in any way shape or form.

I am agnostic, and I am open to all sides of the argument and enjoy documentaries proving and disproving things, events, and items.

Now down to the review.

I found this documentary to be really quite appalling. When I had rented this, I had figured that this sort of thing I would not be surprised to see as one hears about it every now and then. I found the documentary to be very interesting to show how these Evangelists indoctrinate these kids at their camps and what they make the kids believe.

I am a firm believer of free speech, freedoms and thoughts. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Some I agree with , others I disagree with. That is the wonderful thing about living in a free society and I respect that and peoples opinions.

Overall I give this documentary 8 Religious nuts out of 10.

If you are easily offended by religion then I would suggest you not watch this.

I saw the Ebert & Roper review of this film a while back. I pretty much know what I can expect of it.

I have absolutely ZERO interest in seeing this. I know those whacked people are out there... They exist. The less I have to do with their kind, the better.


PS - agnostic is probably how I'd best describe myself these days too.

Rented this over the weekend. Good documentary.


Scary children worshiping of cardboard cut outs of Dubya.

Its a very touchy subject, but Being a christian myself, im almost skeptical about saying im a christian nowadays. Too many titles, extremests, and affiliations with the word "christian" I have my Faith, and i dont think that religion should be forced on anyone, I would watch this doccumentry and probablyrate it above 60%.

Religion gives strength to so many people and lets them overcome pain, torment of uncontrolled past experiances.
I'll support anything that makes a person better themselves in our society.

Saw this a few months back, when it came out in Mexico, watched it with a bunch of friends... All wanted to slit our wrists by the end of the film...

"At 5 years old, I realized I just wanted more out of life, and Jesus could provide that."


What a fucking joke, at 5 years old you should be playing in the sandbox and shit, not being brainwashed by some 700lbs fat cunt with a microphone...


The funniest part, is when that fat slob started talking down about fat people and fast food, even though she was the biggest bitch there.



Terrible, how she talked about creating a childrens army of god, willing to die for him and stuff, she's absolutely CRAZY!
