If only adults could encourage the next generation to find their own way, all they need is the infomation. Each to their own I guess. I'm married to someone who disagrees with me regarding our childern and so they get a healthy balance of going to church if they want to and not if they don't. That's how it should be, shouldn't it? I mean that teacher was wrong and so is pastor Becky, aren't they?
And since your not sending your children there, is it any reason for you to be concerned? Or don't people in this country have freedom of choice anymore? And tell me when that happened.

BECKY FISCHER: “It's no wonder, with that kind of intense training and discipline, that those young people are ready to kill themselves for the cause of Islam. I wanna see young people who are as committed to the cause of Jesus Christ as the young people are to the cause of Islam. I wanna see them as radically laying down their lives for the Gospel as they are over in Pakistan and Israel and Palestine and all those different places, you know, because we have... excuse me, but we have the truth!”
That scares the crap out of me, even though I'm not sending my children there. I can just see a little 8 year old Christian suicide bomber blowing up a clinic that performs abortions or a town hall that refuses to display the 10 commandments.

Would it have been fear mongering to say "Wow, those Nazis really have some evil intent." or is it only valid after the fact?
Can we only speak of it once it happens, even though the intent is clearly stated?

"Jesus Camp follows several young children as they prepare to attend a summer camp where the kids will get their daily dose of evangelical Christianity. Becky Fischer works at the camp, which is named Kids on Fire. Through interviews with Fischer, the children, and others, Jesus Camp illustrates the unswerving belief of the faithful.

Originally posted by CliffLandinWhat I mean is, why not throw your venom at those wacked idiots that actually do send their children out in the streets to die rather than picking on segement of the population that do not do so? Obviously, people like you who hate such segments of the population are just itching to see this happen.

Originally posted by whodeyI don't just hate them. I hate all religious fanatics. I think that anyone that is willing to lay down their life for an imaginary being should be saved the trouble and be put up against the wall.

Originally posted by CliffLandinI agree with you that religious fanatism is not good (or healthy), however, you can't describe God as ''imaginary being'', the fact that you're an atheist doesn't mean you're right.
