Totally disagree.
They are brainwashing kids using tactics that prey on their developing minds, insecurities, guilt and FEAR. It's cruel, in my opinion. The kids are made to feel guilty about being kids. EVERYTHING is a sin. Everything.
They are nazi-like in their pushing for the children to accept their religious path, moral path, AND political path as well. That was a big thing in the documentary---politics. They even had a cardboard cut out of George Bush they were told to lay their hands on, bless, and pray for. It looked a lot like worshipful adoration fo the man to me.
They taught lies about anyone or any group who did not believe the way they did.
AND---get this---they said they were grooming a Chrisitian army that could take on the Taliban.
It was awful...those poor kids crying...

Feel? How about "nauseated"?? Like I might projectile-vomit across the room. That movie frightened me more than a triple-feature of "The Omen", "The Exorcist" and "Halloween" all in the same sitting.
As a matter of fact....I'm pretty certain Jesus would be nauseated as well, seeing that that kind of right-wing Nazism was being practiced in His Holy Name.
Kyrie eleison is all I can say about that.

From the little I saw of it, I disagree with it.
Funny, I went to camp when I was a teen...and it was nothing like that.

The Bible says that at the beginning of the great tribulation, Satan will be loosed to assault the churches and congregations with false gospels near the end of the time:
And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison. Revelation 20:7
And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ariseth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. Revelation 11:7
And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. Revelation 13:7
They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. John 16:2
Q. So, if I go to church this Sunday, who am I worshipping – God or Satan?
A. You must find the answer to all of these questions in the Bible:
When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) Matthew 24:15
…that man of sin…the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 2 Thessalonians 2:3,4

I'm sorry to say I haven't watched it yet, but everyone I know (Christian and non-Christian) said it is very disturbing. From what I have heard and read I would say their methods are cruel and absolutely wrong.

I think both the evangelists and the movie were exploitative and sensational.
