"The Education of Shelby Knox"

Mollye rented this movie from netflix and it is an amazing documentary. This movie is about a down to earth christian texas girl living in a crazy christian society. The movie shows her experiences from sophomore year to senior year in high school. We watch her argue with abstinence speakers, and super christian groups over gays, safe sex, and abstinence. Her argument is that you don't have to follow every rule to be a good christian.

The christian groups all believe that you shouldn't use condoms, not teach sex education at all, and stay away from sex until marriage. She says, how am I going to know what to do when I get married if no one teaches us about anything. Those weren't her exact words but it was something along those lines.

I just want to say that there are many posts where I say I hope something bad happens to customers that shop where I work. I really don't. In this movie they had one of those moments where some super anti gay preacher came to Texas with a group of followers and they all protested in front of a courthouse. One banner they held said 'Aids Cures Fags" and another had a picture of Mathew Shephard and said something along the lines of " He's burning in hell". I just wanted to say, these are the people I hope die. Don't get me wrong I know some people just need to be educated, but anyone who is happy someone else is dead just because of the way he or she lived should be the ones that burn in hell. No ones face should be used on a banner unless it's to support them. I know that if God exists, they will be the people who will feel God's wrath.

I highly recommend this movie. Please watch it and tell others.
