So, I'm watching this documentary called "Jesus Camp," which is basically about how Evangelical Christians are quite literally brainwashing the youth of the United States... anyways, about twenty-five minutes into the film, the mom of one of the Jesus Camp participants makes her kids say the Pledge of Allegiance before lunch.
At first I was like, "Hm, that's weird... but her husband is serving in Iraq so they're probably all gung-ho for America." Imagine my absolute surprise when the kids picked up two little mini-flags (the Christian flag and the flag of Israel) and a bible. They then recited this garbage. Are you fucking kidding me? Seriously, though my thoughts and feelings about organized religion are well-documented, you could literally replace the film's references to Christianity with Islam and you'd have yourself a documentary about radical Islamic fundamentalists. If you're even the slightest bit moderate, and want to get the shit scared out of you, go watch this movie. |

Fundamentalists are awesome Edit: I grew up in the church of Christ and I also attended a baptist church for awhile, so I know how crazy those guys can get This post has been edited by Dr. Gonzo: Feb 18 2007, 04:17 PM -------------------- A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?
