I realise the film is old and likely discussed to death but I only just got round to watching it - the first 30mins anyway.
I felt a bit nauseous and had to have a break before watching the rest. I've never felt so much pity as I did watching those kids have their lives ruined by adults that should know better. The most staggering example of child abuse I will ever see.
I would like to hear anyone try and tell me this type of brain washing is a good thing.
Think I'm going to have a couple of whiskeys before watching the rest. Sick.

That documentary left me really down. I felt so sorry for all those kids.

While I would never defend the Jesus camp, there are places in the world where children are used as soldiers and forced to kill, forced into prostitution, forced to watch their family die. Also Jesus camp would be pretty mild indoctrination if you put it in the Muslim world. I know that most people on these forums live in the comfy western world, but most people in the world doesn't. So while once again I would never defend the Jesus camp as having any positive elements to it, lets keep it in perspective.

Religion is child abuse.

Perhaps I was over dramatic, the film brings strong emotions out in people I suppose.
Just watched a bit more and you can't see how any kid there stood a chance to live a normal life after that. Just listened to the fat bitch speaking in tongues - she is ridiculous (and dangerous).

Saw it last week and hated it. Terrible terrible and more terrible.

It is in my movie case, watched it twice in like 2006. I get too angry.

I cried from watching like a trailer of it. I don't think I'll ever desire depression badly enough to actually watch the documentary.
