Description (Please don't let these people affect your opinion of all Christians. Pretty much every religious group has it's small share of fanatical nut jobs.)
I was cleaning out my room today, and I was so happy I found this project that I had thought I'd lost. It was my photojournalism assignment from my BW Photography 100 class from about a year ago.

These guys (called "Repent America") are perhaps the most offensive human beings I've ever tried to talk to.

Pictured here was another one of their members giving a sermon of sorts, about how there is really no such thing as psychological disease and how all of it can be fixed by turning to Jesus.

It's usually true. You can't medicate yourself. Thats what doctors are for. Self medication is a bad idea.

The mind is highly capable of correcting a great many ailments, it's mastering that that eludes us.

Perhaps that is true, but these guys were saying that even people suffering from schizophrenia need only to turn to Jesus.

Remember... a man who speaks to the devil is mad... but a man who speaks to god is a saint

Yeah, I didn't mean to disagree, but I'm saying it could work sometimes, for reasons beyond us. But they're still alittle nuts, no controversy there.
