It's a movie that underscores the point that the only difference between the words "cult" and "religion" is the former is never used in the first person.

The morons who send their kids to this type of brainwashing should be arrested for child abuse.
My favorite scene in the thing is when the dumbass woman leads the kids as they "talk in tongues". They all just babble incoherently. I can do it, too! Bubbadubbawubbabingbong!
The scene that makes me want to reach into the picture and choke somebody occurs when they talk to the kids about abortion. One of the adults brings out a display that supposedly shows the development of a fetus. The adult pulls out a model that is meant to show the kids what a fetus (of course, they call it "a baby") looks like at five weeks. The thing looked like a fully formed baby, with the exception that it was about two inches long!
This is a perfect example of how these fucktards lie to the kids! A five week old fetus looks more like a tadpole than a human baby!
There was also a scene where a nine year old girl approaches a woman in a bowling alley and hands her a pamphlet. The little girl says, "God told me to give this to you." The woman smiles and says "Thank you."
Oh, I wish the kid would have approached me! I would have immediately said, "So God spoke to you?". She would probably have said "No." (unless she wanted to lie). I would have then said, "Did he appear to you?". Again, she would have had to say no. I would have then asked how "God" communicated with her. She would probably give some crapass answer which I would then have ripped apart. I would then have asked why she was lying to me about "God" telling her to do something. I'm sure this wouldn't be a response she would expect. No doubt, the kid would be expecting you to smile sweetly and thank her for her wonderful deed.

I'm anticipating a few good old home grown domestic terrorists out of this Joel's Army and Jesus Camp bull. I haven't heard of any investigations by Child Protective Services so I assume none has been done and I think it needs to be. This camp as well as Joel's Army's teachings to these children has to manifest some type of questionable psychological damage to these kids.
The world is a dangerous place to live - not because of the people who are evil but because of the people who don't do anything about it.

Say....that's a pretty good George Bush impression.
When Bush was president he attended his daily military briefing. At the meeting one of the generals informed him that three Brazilian soldiers had been killed in Iraq that morning.
Bush's face turns ashen and he begins to get choked up. Finally, he begins to weep openly. Everyone at the table is shocked to see Bush break down like this. He had been in many of these meetings where the casualties were much worse and he never acted like this! Finally, after composing himself, Bush looks up and says, "Can somebody tell me how many is a brazillion?".
