kill these bastards

It is one thing to openly preach, and another to preach to children under the guise of civic activism. In particular, note the hypocrisy that one of the kids' essays states, "Imagine if our nation had Christian leaders again!"

I espeically found this part funny:
Camp American™ welcomes students of all races and religious beliefs who want to learn about their country's origins,
That site is basically your typical "America's turned away from God" nonsense. Yeah, America is an anti-Christian nation. How else would you explain the influence of the Christian Right on politicians and voters, or the "In God we trust" printed on our currency, or perhaps the ban on sodomy in a dozen states?

Camp American? will help students and adults understand the Constitution and the founding fathers original intent, and the Christian principles upon which our founders built this nation. 
The Fathers are rolling in their graves right now.

Their spirits are shooting daggers out of their eyes at these fucktards. You hear me!? DAGGERS! Out of their EYES!!!

HOLY SHIT! SMALL FONT ATTACK!


*amps up font size*

Better.


Gah, 10-12 year old wrote this!

He feared God, and God enabled this small shepherd boy to kill the champion of the Philistines.
Teaching us fearing God is good! :roll:

Someone else:
The Pilgrims envisioned a society in which their children could develop free of negative influence and in which they could accompany their friends in striving for righteousness and God's favor.
Free from negative influence but everyone striving for God's favor?

In the early years of this nation, our morality could have been used as a model for other countries to follow. It was unheard offer anyone to buy or do business on Sunday. Eventually, states and cities enacted blue laws, which were laws that prohibited selling on the Sabbath Day. Our leaders were aware of the need to obey God's commandment and keep the Lord's Day holy. Laws such as these were passed because America had Christian leaders. In fact, in many states, a requirement for holding a public office was professing faith in Christ and being a member in a faithful church. But in the places where this reasonable rule was not required by law, it was required by the constituents.
Goodbye 1st Admendmant!

The Ten Commandments have been stripped from our school walls, and prayer has been prohibited.

Those fucking bastards are following their constitution!!! How unreasonable!

Imagine how different America would be if we once again had Christian leaders!

Yeah, they'd be better then those Bible quoting guys the US has!
Homosexual marriages would not be ordained by the government.

Justice and Liberty for all was getting boring any ways.

School children would not be forced to hear the blasphemous theory that claims man evolved from apes. Rather, they would be taught that the universe is an article of creation that was formed by our magnificent, omnipotent God.
Of course, science is too...too...too...real!

ANOTHER!
As a Christian body, our first Amendment rights are most dear. For under it, we derive every just pleasure the Lord has given us to enjoy: the worship of His majesty, advancement of His Kingdom, and the power to assert His Lordship over all things in the face of tyranny. Indeed, our First Amendment rights are the most prized to God's people as they seek to do His will. Our exercise of the right to freedom of speech allows us to nullify the fallacious reasoning used to subvert the liberties of the Bill of Fights. In fact the First Amendment is primary to the establishment of all the other nine and essential to the civil perseverance of our Constitutional rights and system of government.
We must be discussing another country. I'm talking about the USA.
The guarantor of our citizens' access to these tools is the Second Amendment of the Constitution:

I love how they appeal to the Bill of Rights and say it gives them to right to institute measures that run utterly contrary to it's entire purpose.

Camp American™ will help students and adults understand the Constitution and the founding fathers original intent, and the Christian principles upon which our founders built this nation. Camp American™ will also help your teen recognize and refute false teachings and morally bankrupt philosophies now so prevalent in American culture. Students will discover the deception of evolution, the importance of purity and morals in a free society, and the pagan connection to the radical environmental movement. Your teen will learn the importance of prayer and action. Most importantly, students will learn that in order to restore America, we must return America to Christ.

Look at their links, their sponser is a waste management company, LOL.
Actually they link to a site which has documents that "detail colonist life." It actually has a link to the Treaty of Tripoli, and yet it demands that the colonists were actually very religious and tries to sell a book about how they were religious. One of the most idiotic, unnecessary and obvious books on the planet.

Aside from the normal idiocy of any christian, "grass roots 'take back yadayada for the good moral people'" site it is basically harmless.

They're not posing a serious threat, but if they're well-trained enough, they can be a problem for occupational forces. (Well, this was certainly the case with armed resistance towards occupying German forces in WW2 Europe)

I hope that some day, this kid's car breaks down on his way home from church. Lets see how thankeful he/she is that the tow-truck driver decided to disregard those 'no selling on Sunday' policies. Or perhaps the kid needs to go to the hospital with a broken bone on sunday. How thankful will this person be that the doctors and nurses did NOT follow the "no work on Sunday" policies of the bible.

Oh please Servo. Anyone who's read masturbatoryfantasy 6:9 knows that God won't let anything bad happen to people on Sunday. All the bad stuff that's happened out sunday so far is a result of secular satanist influences and not of God's design! Following the biblical laws will simply eliminate these little problems :roll:
