Hell Houses (AKA: Hallelujah Houses, Heaven or Hell, Christian Haunted House, etc.)

[FatAndFaithless]

It's about as close to publically celebrated child abuse as you can get.

What I experienced that night was undoubtedly child abuse. Of course, I was old enough to see through the charade. But, there were kids there...little kids who will believe that garbage specifically because an adult tells them it's true. Hell houses are as morally objectionable as it gets.

It's a pretty damning sign of the desperation of American Evangelicals if they think the best way to instill their values in their children is to avoid actual reasonable discussion and instead put their kids in a horror-house with real death threats veiled in compassion.

"If you ever even think about doing this you'll go to HELLLLL *chainsaw noises and cardboard cut-out Obama heads on popsicle sticks*!! But remember Jesus loves you...vote Republican."
