Allow me to explain why this group is so frightening... it wasn't just that they were preaching to and using children fairly exclusively for their agenda. They were berating them into tears "for God". A large woman who claimed to be interested in each child individually but only asked if they were christian stood at the front of the Camp she ran and told this group of 5 to 11 year old children that they were hypocrites and phonies as they cried (some sobbing uncontrollably). That isn't Christianity... that's abuse.
Anyway I think you missed the movies final point in the credits. It showed that group ministering around, not only was the group extremely tiny but almost every person they tried to "save" took the pamphlet and didnt' stick around to talk. I think the numbers that Becky and the minister at the end were giving were a bit inflated plus look at the forerunners for the presidential race next year. How many times has an extremist republican made the headlines?
Besides even if the fundamentalists gain control it's all cyclical. They'll hold it for a decade maybe then we'll have the roaring 20's... I mean the groovy 60's... I mean...
