I saw "Jesus Camp," and it was an interesting film. I must say, however, that I do not believe the churches presented there are a true representation of "evangelicals." I grew up in an evangelical church and traveled to many other evangelical churches, and I never experienced situations similar to what was in that film.

Oh no, absolutely.  They are a minority within a minority.  But you would be surprised how many evangelicals saw that movie and were proud of what they saw.  Notably, some evangelicals were embarassed by what they saw as well.

I grew up in a town where there actually are people who are like this, so the movie definitely struck a cord with me.

 

Yes, and it is unfortunate. I find it ironic, however, that their practice of glossolalia is theologically incorrect. Anyways, I should not derail this thread any more than I have.
