Jesus Camp

[silentstriker]

Has anyone watched this documentary? It's available on youtube.

Here's a scary part. Check out the eight year old who chose to be saved because he wanted more out of life. Or better yet, "I think Galileo made the right choice to give up science for Christ."

"Seeing visions and hearing the voice of god." If that was anywhere else and seeing anything other than "God" It would probably go down as a psychotic illness. Pathetic.

Faith is just an nice word for dellusion imo.

Not the direction I want to take with the thread. I was just speaking about this particular documentary.

Pretty scary stuff indeed, made me pretty sad when I watched it.

How come you're up so late Nnanden?

[Nnanden]

Went to bed about 6ish. Got to be at work at 5, thought I'd watch some IPL beforehand.

What that lady says at about 1:20 is scary ****. You WANT kids to lay down their lives for their religion in the same manner some Palestinian kids do? Are you ****ing insane?

Well they're essentially a cult, which although weird and pretty screwed-up, I find pretty heartbreaking when they say those things under Jesus' name.

8 year-olds should not be giving the sermon at a church.

Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not entirely sure, haven't read my Bible lately. But doesn't Jesus say that noone whose righteousness does not surpass that of the pharisees would not enter heaven, and weren't the pharisees a political group who followed all 600 laws of the old testament, which included killing anyone who disobeyed with these laws? Again I might be wrong.

No, you've missed the point there. I'll happily discuss this with you on MSN if you'd like, but won't be held responsible for hijaking another thread.
