I know this documentary is several years old now, but I just watched it last night.
It was very, VERY disturbing! My mormon self was thinking what extremists those people are. Then my exmormon self was reminded that mormons are extreme, too, just less noisily.
So the born-agains think Harry Potter, if real, should be executed. The mormons think drinking coffee will keep you out of the CK, and that girls who wear sleeveless tops have low "standards". The Jesus freaks jump around, wave their hands in the air, babble in tongues and shake on the ground. The mormons stand up in FT meeting and cry. They too indoctrinate children to think they are sinners, and will not just go to hell, but also lose their families FOREVER, if they don't follow the rules.
Everything I saw in this documentary I felt was borderline abuse.
I decided a couple years ago that all religion is crazy, but this solidified it.
Anyone else see this and have any comments? Comparisons to mormonism?
Would be a fun discussion.
