Her spirit was willing, but her flesh was weak!

After a discussion with Christ, Charles and Stephanie [and Christ] had reached a solution to this young girls problem.

If you want to know what goes on behind the scenes at these Christian madrassahs,check out the documentary film "Jesus Camp."

The frequency at which this kind of shit is happening is really starting to freak me out. There is something so Stephen King about it. Its like something you'd read in Black House or the Dark Tower series.

"I don't really know the depth of what's going on," Flowers said. "So I really don't have a reaction to it. I purposely don't want to have a reaction; I'm just living life."


That about sums it up.

Okay, every year one or two of these "boot camps" makes the news for killing someone and gets shut down. Given the frequency of death and dismemberment, can anyone tell me why any of these camps remain open?

I want Charles Flowers and Stephanie Bassitt to rot in prison. One of the versions of the story that I read stated that the release form for this Christian Boot Camp that the parents had to sign said, quite explicitly, that serious injury and even death were possible. Flowers seems to me to be the quintessential pentecostal sorcerer----obsessed with his own seeming omnipotence, and madly ravenous for power over others. Instead of "Sir, yes, SIR!" his ears should ring with shouts of "Garcon!" or "Boy!" or "Hey, you!"
