I live near San Francisco. Last night (2007-Mar-28), I accidentally saw on the news the Battle Cry rally in San Francisco.
You can read the story here,

or, better yet, watch the news clip (8 minutes)

Warning – the news clip may be disturbing.
It literally made me sick to see those brainwashed youngsters rolling their eyes in prayer at the command of a religious fanatic preacher who was selling them CDs, books and t-shirts… Those kids didn’t look mentally sane to me. And I really hope appearances were deceiving.
Had I lived in San Francisco, I would promote healthy atheism by trying to shake a few of those teens to their rational senses… although, judging by the ecstatic look on their faces, my chances would probably be infinitesimal.
