Thank you so much for this article! My son attends Bearden Middle School and saw this "show". He is high level autistic and did not grasp what this program was really about. He came home with the flyer handed out during the program and could not comprehend why we didn't want to go to the Franklin Graham Festival.
After many hours of tears and talks, he understood, somewhat, that this was not just a bunch of kids riding BMX bikes, that it was the way to lure kids in to be "saved".
As a lapsed Catholic who grew up around Southern Baptists that were always trying to "save" me, I REALLY resent this being foisted upon my son, at school. I did not appreciate having to spend a day dealing with the fall out from what he was exposed to. If I want him to get religion, that's my choice, not the public school.
