Among the camp’s practices, posted on the blog of a youth whose parents are forcing him to attend:
1. Kids in the program are not allowed to speak to anyone, not even their parents, for at least the first two days.
2. Kids are not allowed to go anywhere unless they are accompanied by at least two other participants, one of which has to have at least 8 weeks of prior indoctrination.
3. Kids are not allowed to keep a journal or a diary
4. Kids are not allowed to discuss what goes on in the program with anyone, not even their parents
5. Kids are not allowed to have contact with any family members other than parents, who also go through the program
6. Kids are not allowed to have any physical contact with any human being other than a hand shake or a pat on the shoulder, and only when authorized.
7. Kids are not allowed outside of a small geographic area within Memphis, even if accompanied by parents, without prior written authorization
8. Kids are not allowed to listen to any music that is not explicitly Christian (Bach and Beethoven are specifically forbidden as being non-Christian)
9. Kids are not permitted to enter restaurants that serve alcohol
10. Kids are not allowed to speak after 9:00 p.m. under any circumstance
11. Kids may be placed in a state of isolation where they are not allowed to communicate with one another"

This should be illegal.

No parent should have the ability to send a child to a camp like this against there will.

Camps like this shouldn't exist in the first place!

You know, they sound alot like Hitler's Youth Camps. Also, I don't care that I just invoked Godwins Law.

Oh I get it: they want to show these kids what hell is like.

They should call it Serial Killer Camp, because there's a greater probability of these kids becoming serial killers than becoming straight.

Children are humans too, you know.

In the Swedish version of Wikipeida it says that Bach was considered "the fifth evangelist" due to all the work he did for the church, including the work he did on the theme of the suffering of Jesus.

That's just child abuse, plain and simple. The owners should be jailed and the parents that sent their kids there should lose access to them.

Camp is supposed to be fun.

All these rules are ridiculous, and especially number 8.

I love Baroque music, and love these musicians - and anybody who knows anything about them would know that a HUGE portion of their works were for religious courts. BACH especially, since he did choral works for boy choirs, and plenty of classical organ works.

This person, whom ever wrote this, is not worthy of having children, let alone making rules on how to help them "become straight."

I wouldn't be surprised if they used sensory deprivation as a form of punishment.

Camp? That looks more like a maximum security prison.

If they wake up at one in the morning with severe stomach aches, they have to remain quiet until morning, or what?
Better to die of acute appendicitis than to be gay, right?

To all of you making Nazi comparisons, the amount of restriction in this is actually WORSE than in many of Hitlers concentration camps, and far, far worse than Japanese Internment, both of which are atrocities in their own right.

Forget prison, these people should be sent to the Hague for crimes against humanity.

I live in Nashville. Memphis is only a couple hundred miles away.

Oh fuck. I hear them coming now!

That "kid" would have been better off aborted than living with those monsters. Relatively.

Bach and Beethoven not Christian? Really? Explain to me all the church music they composed. Oh, that's right, you're all a bunch of KJV-nutters that think Catholics are the Whore of Babylon or something like that...
