Answer 3

i no i was well annoyed at it it was child abuse that little boy looked so scared when people were having a go at his dad somthing should be done what kind of a child hood are them poor children going to have

Answer 4

I'm a born again christian and a childrens worker in church.  What happened in that documentary was a form of abuse.  Putting young children out there to preach *your* views for you because it's more eye-catching than doing it yourself is so wrong.  Those kids were only ever given one side of the story and it was very disturbing to see the outcome.  Especially the hate they were preaching to the g*y community whilst their cowardly parents stood back and watched them get abuse from the crowd.

Answer 5

Missed that sounds interesting.

Answer 6

yeah thats soooo mean

Answer 7

I could only watch part of it, it made me so angry.  Sick, selfish parenting denying their children a proper childhood.  Oh, don't get me started again!

And did anyone else think that the relationship between the Brazilian preacher girl (I forget her name) and her father looked extremely suspicious?

Answer 8

I agree with you ..it was at the very least child abuse..the parents want to be ashamed of themselves..children are entitled to a normal childhood...

Answer 9

I agree it was very sad to watch,and the poor boy when he started to cry i felt for him.  :(

Answer 10

Do you call them bashers in the UK? I've always called them "thumpers", because if you bash something it means you put it down in a degrading manner.

They thump the bible with their fists to make their point.

Anyway, semantics aside, yes, i've seen them and they make my SKIN CRAWL. Absolutely horrid.

Answer 11

I once knew the son of a methodist minister.

He was weirdo.

Answer 12

yeah I watched it, it was awful

I feel so sorry for those kids, completely brainwashed

Answer 13

It made me feel sick to my stomach - this is child abuse in a big way

Answer 14

I saw a bit, I just couldn't believe the parents actually believed it was their children's desire/choice to do it. Like as if they had no motivation behind their child's decision.

I found it scary and very disturbing, that religion is used as a segregation tool, and as some sort of moral high ground, whatever happened to love thy neighbour or turn the other cheek.??
