this movie finally answered for me WHY america keeps voting idiots like Bush into power: the nation is being brainwashed by extremist christian movement. I especially love how they used Ted Haggard in some of the interviews near the end, the same Ted Haggard who, after this movie was released, was found to be snorting speed while in the company of male hookers. Oh, the hypocricy knows no bounds... read more

Prelude76's review is spot-on. This movie is FRIGHTENING, probably scarier than 90% of the horror movies that came out in 2006. And it was brilliant in the way that it did not skew the viewer, or use unfair editing, in order to get points across- everything in the documentary speaks for itself. I have read that the fundamentalists featured in the film are happy with the way it came out and do not ... read more

Watching this movie made me really, really sick – it is like a horrible fairly tale or even worse that that – because what thee movie showed is actually happening – in the US and in other countries. I am watching how the kids are being manipulated and wonder why there is not anyone there with some brain in his mind – to stop all that madness. How can these people do that – religion –... read more

Lernding! and documentary (75 movies items)

"Weird wild stuff. We are truly still in the dark ages. This group believes we can savage earth's natural resources completely and utterly because Jesus will return to escort them away. "Science doesn't prove anything", a lesson imparted by an evangelical home-schooler. Ted Haggard, who is completely heterosexual despite frequenting at least one male prostitute with whom he used crystal meth with, speaks to the children. As you can see, he has captivated them. Children were sent to prot"

"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. I can't tell you how much bible-bashing annoys me - especially where children are concerned. Can parents not raise their kids with the right morals without using religion as a basis.. really?! A good but disturbing documentary. "

Stuff About Me (27 movies items)

"I used to have a major problem with religion due to my OCD and vulnerability to judgement. I used to stew over what Hell would be like and just how long it would take me to get there. I still have a problem with Religious Conservatives, but I try to accept everyone. However, religion is a topic I'd rather not discuss. P.S. I have not seen this film. I don't generally like documentaries. "

"Back when I was a kid, I was sent to a Jesus camp for one summer. I even earned a badge for being able to whistle thru my stigmatas. Seriously tho, Jesus Camp is the kind of documentary whose real life depictions of children having their evolving mindsets encrypted with teachings of the extreme religious right can seem more horrifying & disturbing than the fictional tales of movies like Paranormal Activity or The Exorcist."
