Today in class we watched the movie Jesus Camp. I thought it was interesting and also a bit disturbing. They seemed really intense and a bit too much for me. I think it is okay to be religious but it is a bit extreme when it is like how the movie portrayed it. I was sitting next to my friend in class and after class she said she was really angry about how they portrayed Christians. She was saying that all Christians aren't like that and that this movie portrayed them badly. Like they were pushing and crazy. Seeing this movie was shocking to me because it is so crazy in my mind that people are so strongly against evolution and won't let their kids read stuff like Harry Potter because wizards are the devils work. I know it is religion and people strongly believe in it, but it is just so crazy to me. It seems unreal that these people are pushing these idea's on their children and the children seem to be the strongest believers. To me this was all very sad, but that is how some other people are.
