What did you think to Channel 4's 'God's Next Army'?

My mistake. Is there a reason no one is making a similar documentary about Italy, Greece, Poland, or Serbia?

Sure. What's also intesting is how the current administrations extreme deep religious beliefs affect millions across the world already; It's known that they fund programs in Africa which promote abstinence and against the use of condoms. We're talking countries engulfed with AIDS.

Watching this program, it's amusing how naive and narrow-minded these kids were despite their intellectuals skills; very good at debating I may add. They're home-schooled, never in contact with the real world and they jump right aboard the Republican party, running around trying to win votes for their candidate concerning issues their poor narrow-minded brains could never comprehend. Brilliant

P.S Narrow-minded intellectual must be the worst oxymoron.

With regards to your first paragraph - there was indeed a programme a month or two back (on channel 4 i think) about religious preachers from America going to an African country (i think it was African, but i could quite easily be wrong), promoting sex with no condoms, no birth control measures, no sex protection...and that country is already rife with STDs, overpopulation and of course, a dreadful amount of poverty, illness, disease et cetera. Extreme, deep religious beliefs are very dangerous, and the last thing we want is a group of American Christian Conservatives flocking by numbers to all corners preaching this kind of stuff.

Er, are you kidding? I find it hard to believe that they were promoting any kind of sex. They promote no sex until marriage.

well everyone already knows serbia is a dump full of xenophobic prats, italy is all for show, and nobody gives a monkeys about the greek. even turkey can't be arsed to start a war anymore with the muppets.
and as for poland. we love them to much. bless them for their builders, barmen (and women i might add) and general nice peeks with decent work ethic.

Don't let your haste to condemn the BBC lead you into these kind of blunders Bismarck - the documentary was made and shown by Channel 4.

"Oh F**K!" was my reaction. Religion has no place in politics.

In the good old days, wealth was considered next door to Godliness and was considered a sign of Divine Approval. A few Americans seem to still believe this.

I wish I'd seen this programme, alas I never manage to catch anything that's on TV anymore.

It does worry me a little bit that these people on the programme haven't really mingled with worldy people, I am a Christian and haven't been sheltered from things like sex, drugs, violence, smoking, etc and I still have chosen to be a Christian, its temptation like this that makes you a better person when you refuse to give in!
Secondly some one else put that creationism is a load of rubbish and that there is lots of evidence that the world was made through the big bang and evolution. I myself am not sure about how the process of us coming into existence happended I just know why and who did it. Now its mad to ridicule other peoples views when evolution and the big bang are only theories; they're not PROOVEN, theres no fossil evidence of the changes between animals that have supposedly evolved. Darwin actually rebuked his theory on his deathbed so that one surely stands strong. So be careful in mocking others when your own views aren't prooven either, your making just as big a leap of faith.

It's worrying that a school that teaches such a curriculum can exist in a developed nation - you would expect it in 14th Century Europe or some tribal African backwater, but not 21st C. USA.

The only positive was the fact that young people were interested in politics; I wouldn't expect door-to-door canvassing with such vigour from UK teenagers.

But, the sheer ignorance and hypocrisy was staggering. I really do want to punch the TV when people like that are on it.

Sorry I don't waste my time learning how to type properly. Yes a theory is an idea, a hypothesis that is widely accepted by the scientific community, not necessarily true though. Like the wording 'it'! :P
