Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady’s documentary delves into the lives of young evangelical Christian children who hope to become America’s future spiritual warriors. In order to be prepared to combat the debilitating growing wave of unmoral Harry Potter watching Americans (Warlocks are enemies of God) these children dedicate a good amount of their personal time to their local church and if the lord sees fit are able to attend a Becky Fischer’s Kids on Fire summer camp. This camp held in Devil’s Lake, North Dakota focuses on getting the children involved in various spiritual exercises to hone their skills.
Becky Fischer the Evangelical spiritual Pastor is an easy choice to focus on due to her boisterous persona, which is fueled by her feverish passion that teeters into insanity. She has the kid’s speaking in tongues, gyrating on the floor as if they are having convulsions, repenting out loud all of their young sins to the point of near exhaustion and my personal favorite the worshiping of a life size cardboard cutout of President George Bush.
Her counterpoint is radio talk show host and lawyer Mike Papantonio. He tries to warn his listeners about these religious right Christian fanatics who he believes are slowly sneaking their way into positions of governmental power. They don’t want a separation of church and state and look for people that promote their agenda. You really don’t get to know him well as he is just shown in small doses.
The kids are inundated with their parents/ preacher beliefs to the point that anything obtained independently is merely accidental. I think you could easily substitute a few teachings’ here and there and this documentary would be about the creation of future Nazi’s or anti-American warriors. They would all share the same common denominator of being preprogrammed with a disposition of distaste for whatever their leaders wished.
