BANQUETE, Texas — The director of a Christian boot camp and an employee were arrested Friday for allegedly dragging a 15-year-old girl behind a van after she fell behind the group during a morning run, authorities said. Charles Eugene Flowers and Stephanie Bassitt of San Antonio-based Love Demonstrated Ministries, a 32-day boot camp, were arrested on aggravated assault charges for the alleged June 12 incident. The two are accused of tying the girl to the van with a rope then dragging her, according to an arrest affidavit filed Wednesday by the Nueces County Sheriff's Department. Both remained in Nueces County Jail late Friday on $100,000 bond each. A call to Love Demonstrated Ministries was not immediately returned Friday. No listing was found for Bassitt. An answering machine at a listing for Flowers cut off during an attempt to leave a message Friday. Flowers, the camp's director, allegedly ordered Bassitt to run alongside the girl after she fell behind, the affidavit said. When the girl stopped running, Bassitt allegedly yelled at her and pinned her to the ground while Flowers tied the rope to her, according to the affidavit. The girl's mother gave investigators photos of her daughter's injuries that were taken at a hospital where the girl was treated and a sworn statement from a witness who claimed to see the girl being dragged on her stomach at least three times.

Fools! As Christians they were supposed to molest her, not beat her!

Love Demonstrated Ministry's line of business is civic/social association. ===================================== Why is this being called a "Christian" ministry? Where do they confess Christ? Where do they emulate Christ? Nowhere, that I can see. Is this another psy-op to give Christianity a black eye? Sure looks like it to me. Who would do such a thing, do you suppose? I saw over on TOS1 that they receive a couple hundred thousand dollars in private and GOVERNMENT contributions. This must be one of Bush's phony 'faith'-based organizations which are subsidized by the government for the express purpose of destroying in America the only true faith. They can call themselves a "ministry" all day long; it does not make them Christian. They can call yourselves "Christian" all day long; it does not make them Christian. A Christian wouldn't drag a child behind a car, or they wouldn't be a Christian: Mat 25:40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done [it] unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done [it] unto me. [How many Christians do you suppose, would tie Jesus up and drag him behind a van, even if they were able?] Mat 18:5 And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me. Mat 18:6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and [that] he were drowned in the depth of the sea. Mat 18:10 Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven. The Jewish media is having a field day with this, because it gives them a chance to defame Christ and His followers, and bring them down to their perverted level, and that of their masters. Shut them up, for Jesus' sake.
Oh, yes, and I forgot to mention: Christian boot camp??? Synonymous with war and killing?? That would be an oxymororn for the Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6. Mat 5:9 Blessed [are] the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. Mat 5:43 ¶ Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. Mat 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; Mat 5:45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. Mat 5:46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? Mat 5:47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more [than others]? do not even the publicans so? Mat 5:48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. "Christian" boot camps don't even come close to fulfilling the Great Commission. This just ticks me off to no end that they would associate Christ's name with this abomination.
