Gay Teens Are Ripped From Their Homes in the Name of God in ‘Kidnapped for Christ’ Trailer (Video)

An ungodly amount of homosexual Christian kids are torn violently from their homes and sent to the Dominican Republic in the first official trailer for the ‘Kidnapped for Christ’ documentary, which asserts these are crimes for which somebody must ultimately pay.

The eye-opening Showtime doc, executive produced by ‘N Sync's Lance Bass, shines a harsh light on a Christian behavioral modification program called Escuela Carib. It seemingly hopes to indict the tyrannical religious leaders responsible for destroying so many thousands of lives over the years.

Do you know if this documentary is available on DVD? I don't have access to Showtime.

selfishness and other despicable behavior. I have yet to understand why religious people think they're so fucken special than what their brainwashing and indoctrination instilled in them.

They can't fathom anyone thinking anything differently from what they think.
