American madrasah

George Dvorsky reviews Jesus Camp. Be warned -- this will both make you angry on behalf of the children being relentlessly schooled in ignorance, and make you frightened by what they might do in the future if they grow up with their programming intact. Do you think the title I gave this posting, comparing the camp to the Saudi-funded Wahhabist schools in Pakistan that churn out Muslim fanatics, is a little too over-the-top? At least one camp organizer would disagree:

It's no wonder, with that kind of intense training and discipling, that those young people are ready to kill themselves for the cause of Islam. I wanna see young people who are as committed to the cause of Jesus Christ as the young people are to the cause of Islam. I wanna see them as radically laying down their lives for the Gospel as they are over in Pakistan and Israel and Palestine and all those different places, you know, because we have... excuse me, but we have the truth!

There you have it. The ignorance, bigotry, and fanaticism that fuel the murderous foot soldiers of Islamic imperialism are a model to be emulated.
