Line 23:
* [[Culture Police]]: One of the guys running the camp chides the boys for telling ghost stories because ghost stories don't further their religious goals.
* [[The Cutie]]: A lot of the kids are absolutely ''adorable'' when they're allowed to just be themselves.
* [[Does This Remind You of Anything?]] / [[Fridge Horror]]: The head pastor at the camp talks about turning the children into an "army of God," and tells the kids that they should be ready to lay down their lives in the name of God. Explicit comparisons to Muslim extremists are brought up... by the ''pastor'', who openly acknowledges that she was ''inspired'' by the way that they indoctrinate their youth
* [[Drop the Hammer]]: Kids use a hammer to smash ceramic cups symbolizing the things they want to break down, to symbolize "breaking the power of the Devil."
* [[Manipulative Bastard]]: There are elements of this at times. The camp seems to have a method of making the kids cry and then using their emotional tumult to really cement their message.
Line 46:
* [[War Is Glorious]]: "Take these prophecies and do what the apostle Paul said and make war with them! THIS MEANS WAR! THIS MEANS WAR!" One hopes Becky means ''spiritual'' warfare...
* [[The War On Straw]]: The anti-evolution film the kids watch brings up the old "the Big Bang was an explosion" and "came from goo" canards.
* [[What Happened to The Mouse?]]: As the documentary goes along, it focuses much more on Levi and Racheal and much less on Tory. We're never really given any reason why either.
* [[Wide Eyed Idealist]]: Many of the kids, but quite noticeably 9-year-old Rachael, who wants to open a manicure salon when she grows up so she can try to convert customers while they're getting their nails done.
