How many people think this to be just babbling? How manny think they're speaking some language? I mean, she appears to be saying something and then she just goes alalalalalalalalalalalalala. I can't think that this is real. Its so stupid. What are your views on it? Do you actually think they are speaking some universal language as some people think it is? I know people that say they've spoken in it >.>

Of course it's rubbish.  Evangelical Christians will buy whatever shit their church feeds them.

I also lol'd when that fat bitch started going on about fat, lazy Christians who can't give up their food.

Ya, I know. BNy watching that documentary I found them to be extremely hypocritical

[Houdini]

All it does is show how gullible Evangelicals are.

I still need to watch Jesus Camp. I've been putting it off for so long because it scares me.

Jesus Camp is one of the scariest documentaries I've ever seen. It's almost as frightening as Deilver Us From Evil.

I think it's total bullshit. I've been to a church where they've done that, watched the people "talk" in gibberish like babies. Just gullible people buying more bullshit.

Whoever makes this crap up is probably laughing still.

When I lived in New Hampshire for a year my sister had a friend whose father owned some church.

It was like a fucking cult.  He had healing water and they did all of this crazy shit.

[don't let's]

I don't if that's true or not because the actual biblical principle of "speaking in tongues" Well I'll just post what it says on wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossolalia

In contrast to glossolalia, the Christian scriptures describe the ability to communicate to others (from other places) in languages previously not studied.

New Testament

In the New Testament, the book of Acts recounts how "tongues of fire" descended upon the heads of the Apostles, accompanied by the miraculous occurrence of speaking in languages previously unknown to them, but recognizable to others present as their own native language.

The phenomenon described in the Book of Acts (2:1-11) is variously interpreted either as religious xenoglossia, the speaking of an actual foreign language, or as the gift of interpretation being given to those present: the ability to understand the tongues (each person in his own language).

It is a very scary documentsry, especially when the camp leader says she would like the kids ready to die for their cause just like in the Middle East. What is Deliver Us From Evil about? I haven't seen it

I've only ever seen little bits of this documentary, like little excerpts with quotes from the kids and stuff. Last night I however watched a good portion of it, and I'm completely disgusted by the kinds of things this woman says. She completely admits that she's using the kids as tools.

I know, multiple times she says things that implies she just sees the kids as tool such as when she says the reason we go after little kids because they believe anything and by the time they're 5, everything gets embedded in their head. (Or something along those lines >.>)

[FULL_METAL_RYDER2]

I need to watch Jesus Camp the whole way through, I stopped watching because on comment the fat bitch made scared, and baffled me at the same time.

"HAD HARRY POTTER BEEN IN THE OLD TESTAMENT,HE WOULD HAVE BEEN PUT TO DEATH"

How can you put a fictional character to death?
