The Hitler Jugend lives!

A Nashville church that's fighting to keep from registering its daily child ''camp'' as a state-licensed day-care center posts armed guards on the church grounds, which is raising alarms for state human services officials.

The church also defied a court order yesterday and continued with its day camp, which accommodates more than 150 children up to age 5.

Priest Lake Community Baptist Church officials say that the guards carry their weapons legally and that the state is trying to force an ''atheist'' view on the congregation by requiring it to register as a day-care provider.

Right. You need armed guards and a surveillance system for a Bible Camp. A camp for kids under 5 that lasts 12 hours a day. That's brainwashing boys and girls.

I'm of two minds about it. "Children's services" departments in *every* state are noted for over-reacting (and under-reacting). And I can understand a church wanting to avoid the state getting involved.

But yeah, it does seem rather "off".

As for "brainwashing", please keep in mind that parents are *allowed* to do that. The alternative is the state micromamaging what folks get to teach their own kids.

I know a lot of parent abuse this right. But consider what the government would do if they got to pass judgement on what was "proper".
