Jesus Camp Page #7
This is it.
You know,
I have to believe with all my heart
that this is just
a tip of the iceberg.
I believe those kids made
an impact in heaven.
God hears the cries of children.
Ufff! It makes me wanna cry.
We are talking to Becky
in Bismarck, North Dakota.
She is a children's pastor
and she runs a summer camp
for evangelical children
there, in North Dakota.
- Becky, how are you?
- I'm doing very good.
Why kids? Why are they supposed
to be some new army of God?
Why are we using
kids to do that?
Anyone who does any work
with kids knows this
it's because the reason
you go for kids
it is because
whatever they learn
by the age of 7, 8, 9 years old
it's pretty long there
for the rest of their lives
and there are statistics
that you can research for yourself
No, I I I know these statistics,
but you used the term "to learn"...
The word to learn
is different than indoctrinate...
God gave us a brain
God gave us the freedom to choose
and learning is part of that choice.
And I think everytime
the fundamentalist movement, Becky
interferes with that,
we are doing harm
we are doing harm to
the progression of the mankind.
I don't think any kid
anything by choice.
Uhm.. If I understood,
your question to me was
if I feel it right for
the fundamentalism
to indoctrinate their children
with their own beliefs.
I guess, fundamentally,
yes I do.
Because every other religions
are indoctrinating their kids.
Hello? I would like to see
more churches indoctrinating.
You can tell a child anything.
Just like I say,
you can tell a child
You can make a child
into a soldier that carries a AK-47.
You can call it brain washing
but I am radically passionate
in teaching children
about their responsibilities
as Christians
as God fearing people,
Woa, Becky,
let me ask you this:
How do we ignore that all of this
sadden??? were creating
children soldiers
for the Republican Party?
How... How is that figuring
to anything that Christ had to say about
how we should live
our life on the Earth?
It is I am not safe
I am not aware of any churches
that with that political cause.
I I am not going after
my kids politically
but that, you know because
at the same time I wanna say
that I don't have any problem
saying to my children:
"We are Pro life."
I got to tell you God
is watching us
God has and I
And God has a very special place
for those people
who mess with our children.
- It is not a pretty place.
- You know what?
I am not going to go there, Mike.
You know, what's always made
this country special?
What's always set
this country apart?
is because there is
something that we called:
a separation between
Church and State.
That's always something
that separates us
and has separated us
for 200 years.
It is worked.
I respect your right
is fundamentalist
to teach your children
whatever you wanna teach them
but don't let that bleed over
into the public sector.
Don't let that bleed over
into the schools.
I with you,
Christianity is important.
We believe it's the most
important religion in the world
because it changes
the life of people.
But Becky, it's a witches brew:
it's gonna take over democracy.
You know,
I think democracy
is the greatest political system
on Earth
,
it's the only the only
it's the on Earth,
you know
and it is designed
to destroy itself
because we have to give
evreyone the equal freedom
and
it will destroy us.
And so perfect world
it is not going to be perfect
until Jesus
is truly Lord.
Ok. Becky,
thanks for joining us. Ok.
Aw, man!
The more I hear about this
that is to say, every time
it is getting crazier and crazier.
On this vote,
are 58, are 42.
The presidence nomination
of New Jersey
to be associate justice
of the Supreme Court
of the United States
is confirmed.
I love America,
I love the American life style...
... and to be part of 21st century.
I wake up every day excited about
what I'm gonna do
but at the same time I look at
this sick old world
and I :
God,let's get out of here.
Knowing what I know
how do I not give
my whole life
to helping other people:
children, teenagers or adults
come to a saving knowledge
of Jesus Christ.
How can I enjoy heaven?
with the knwoledge
that I never told people
that it matters so much to me...
about Jesus.
That is not a burden,
it is the greatest joy of my life.
The most religious nation
in the world is India.
The most irreligious nation
in the world is Sweden.
We are a nation of Indians
ruled by Swed's??.
As Christians, you are the leaders,
you speak for God.
We cared about our country.
And what I wanna say is
we want to get our message out.
We can't down to she said:
you just your message down
to single sentences???.
Let me give you some
single sentences.
Number one:
it's a new day.
Number two:
liberalism is dead.
Number three:
the majority of Americans are conservative.
Number four:
you can count on us, showing up and speaking out.
And number five:
let the Church rise!
Thank you, Dr Sutton.
