I'm beginning to really hate abc...and this story from an abc affiliate in supposedly enlightened San Francisco! We've lost an entire network on public airwaves and their spreading RW fundie propaganda. I'd bet that when Pat Robertson sold the abc family channel to disney there was a lot more bargaining with the devil than what we all knew of. This so-called 'Jesus camp' is the latest abomination to appear from a RW aligned with the beast of fundie christianity....and it's a 'let's make christian radicals that are just as intolerant and horrible as the Islamic radicals! The rest of us are in between them.

"I want to see young people who are as committed to the cause of Jesus Christ as the young people are to the cause of Islam," she said.

Just great. Now we'll have 15 year old Christian boys running into Mosques wrapped with TNT blowing themselves up. Gee, that is sure great.

What the sam hell are wrong with these fucking nuts? By the way...the kids I am sure don't have much say if they are in this camp or not. It is all about the freakoid parents who put them there.

3. My guess is the cyanide laced Kool-Aid is not far off for these people

This is pretty much how Jim Jones started out. It would be nice if they would all relocate to Guyana.
