MSNBC had a documentary entitled "Teen Mania" on very early this morning.

Has anyone else seen this? It followed several young people who had been caught up by this Teen Mania Ministries group and were receiving therapy after leaving this group. Teen Mania Ministries have a very twisted idea of how to teach young people. In fact, they are sadistic and employ techniques akin to torture to break people down.

If you can catch it, watch this program. Beyond the assault on education and reproductive rights, there are other destructive influences on society that are flying under the radar right now.

It really is sick.

If we saw those sorts of things in the ME, we'd be calling them medrasas and training camps.
