Jesus Camp-Review



Eine gute Review des Evangelical Outpost zur umstrittenen und oscarnominierten Doku Jesus-Camp:



Aside from the political angle, your reaction to the film will—once again--depend on how shocked you are by Pentecostalism.
[...]

A Pentecostal children’s pastor. Who runs a church camp. In North Dakota. If this is the biggest threat to secularism that we can come up with, then I hereby renounce my membership in the Religious Right.

[...]

While there is much that I disagree with, and even find strange, about the charismatic movement, there is nothing about it that is politically dangerous. What is dangerous, however, is the way that some of our fellow citizens are willing to vilify and dehumanize those with whom they disagree. [...] Jesus Camp doesn’t tell us much about evangelicals or the Religious Right. But it speaks volumes about the anti-populist and anti-religious attitudes of secular America.
