5. Jesus Camp

IMDb Rating: 7.5
Available On: Netflix

This documentary ranks 5th in our list of Best Religious/Atheist Documentaries on Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime. It talks about a summer camp, but not one where parents send you to toughen up. In this summer camp called Kids on Fire School of Ministry, children learn about the power of religion. The teachings of the camp are based on Charismatic Christianity. The Jesus Camp documentary focuses primarily on the stories of three kids spending the summer in the camp. Through these stories, it gives the audience insight into the core of the camp’s controversial teachings, including ones about global warming, where the teachers in the camp claim everything is a political and scientific hoax and that children need to purify themselves so they can become a part of God’s army (whatever that means).
