The infamous Kids on Fire summer camp in North Dakota, made infamous by the movie Jesus Camp, has been officially shut down (for now). The camp’s director, Becky Fischer, said the movie Jesus Camp sparked such outrage that she feared for her safety and that of the kids attending the camp.
Last October, after the film’s release, the camp was hot by vandals who caused $1,500 in damage. Fischer even asked the distributors of "Jesus Camp" not to release the film in Bismarck for fear of reprisal from locals.
While I don’t condone violence against this camp or its patrons, I am very glad to see this freak show closed down. The harm done to these kids is far greater than the $1,500 worth of damage on the campground.
I’d like to hear from everyone on this. Christians, from what you know about this camp, are you glad it’s closed? As for you Atheists, you’re going to hell anyway so don’t bother commenting ;)
Also, if you’ve seen the movie please share your thoughts. And if you’ve been to the camp or know someone that has, please contact me.
Thanks to Humanistic Jones for the tip.

Very nice topic about dating. Simply what I used to be looking for. I used to be redirected from a online dating site i discovered on google and landed here. This websiteabout singles is amazing. Anticipating more such great articles regarding free dating with real world examples.
I think some of the views were a bit unapropriate for the age of the kids at the camp. I also think people should realize a 15 second sound bite is not enough evidence to vandalize or accuse. I do believe teaching our youth in the ways of The Lord is the right thing to do. We as a Christian nation need to keep the 10 commandments in our schools and Also need to remain one Nation Under GOd.
Yeah, and we should teach our kids to slaughter animals daily and burn them for god’s pleasure, just as the Christian bible tells us to.
Ever read Letter to A Christian Nation by Sam Harris? You should. You’d learn a lot, if you get to understanding it. <$10 at Amazon:
