Geez, I thought my link did well enough, especially since it’s linked to a Glenn Beck thing.

Thought I’d throw in another twist…

‘Jesus Camp’ Depicts Young Soldiers of God

No Harry Potter, but Plenty of Politics

While Potter is not OK, politics are — conservative and Christian.

Issues like abortion are discussed, and political protests become field trips for the campers.

“I feel like we’re kind of being trained to be warriors, only in a much funner way,” one camper said.

Some less-extreme Christians, including radio talk-show host Mike Papantonio, fear the children at Kids on Fire are being used as political pawns by adults with an agenda.

“There is a religious, political army of foot soldiers out there that are being directed by a political right,” Papantonio said.

Camp founders insist they are doing God’s will: to save lives and souls.

“Jesus Camp” opened in limited release on Sept. 20.

Some Christian conservatives hope their message will get out with the gradual nationwide release of the documentary, one movie theater at a time.
