Anyone here seen the movie? I recorded it on my DVR but havent had a chance to watch it yet.



Stuff like this freaks me out, but it should be pretty interesting.

Really didnt freak me out to much until the end...nothing wrong with spreading you faith to your children, but the whole shaking on the ground, the devil is leaving you sort of thing does creep me out too.

That whole shaking on the ground mess is just a farce. Most of the time it's for show, but other times, the person(s) caught up in the moment, for lack of a better term, "spazzes out" because either that is what is expected of them, they have seen others do the same, or they are emotionally unstable to begin with and are easily coerced into a convulsive or "I've got JEEEEZUZ!" state. That's not to knock the feeling of peace and excitement that can come with knowing and accepting that Jesus is our personal savior and wanting to live your life according to God's will and His plan of Salvation, its just that I think 99.9% of these instances are merely theatrical performances for the benefit of those watching and have no actual bearing on the person's salvation.

scary stuff

Great movie exposing what is wrong with some Christian groups. I watched "Tough as Nails" on HBO. I actually think the guy is pretty unconventional but, he was preaching what I believed. He even was totally honest about problems in his life. It's a better picture of the true nature of Christians.

Imagine the fallout and the Sensitivity Police coming out if this was titled "Allah's Camp", our Congress would go as far as passing legislation to condemn it and CARE would start a boycott.

Jesus Camp or Allah Camp is not offensive. The distorted message they preach is offensive.

Im not saying either one is offensive but what I said above would happen.

I saw this last night...it was frightening. They're brainwashing those poor kids.

"Their movie follows three Missouri kids who speak in tongues, pray for judges to outlaw abortion and lay hands on a cardboard cutout of President Bush."

"The film portrays a girl's awkward attempts to evangelize a teenage girl at a bowling alley, boys telling ghost stories by flashlight until an adult warns that it doesn't glorify God, and intense scenes of young children quaking on the floor with tears rushing down their faces."

"It does represent a small portion of the charismatic movement, but I think it demonizes it," said Haggard (Haggard was actually in the film voluntarily, my note), a charismatic Christian who does not usually speak in tongues from the pulpit. "Secularists are hoping that evangelical Christians and radicalized Muslims are essentially the same, which is why they will love this film."

cite The Denver Post - Fire, brimstone around "Jesus" film

O yea the preacher Ted Haggard that was on Jesus Camp, he got busted for buying methamphetamine for a male prostitute. What a Christian role model! I heard that Jesus Camp is now shut down.

You have extremes in every form of religion. But whats really bothering me about religion in the workplace (I don't believe that religion of any kind should be allowed in the actual workplace) is the fact that Christians in a lot if instances are looked at as stepping on rights of others. Now I read in the paper a few days ago that some Muslims are wanting a separate room at places of work where they can go pray and meditate. Theres something terribly wrong here.

Why did they want a seperate room? Just wondering.

I'd let them have it if they would forfeit medical benefits. It'd be cheaper to build the room. Plus when you sell the building you can make money off it.
