Quote:Jesus, Don’t Let Me Die Before I’ve Had Sex will be a feature-length documentary examining the teachings of the evangelical church on sex and exploring the undercurrent of idealism that leaves many lay members feeling frustrated and confused. Told in a story telling fashion ala This American Life, the movie will paint a picture of what is taught explicitly and implicitly by showing how churchgoers react to those teachings through anecdotes of first kisses, chastity rallies and secret obsessions. Along side these stories will be interviews of pastors reflecting on their own teachings, as well historians and sociologists diagramming the evolution of sexual teaching in the Church. Intercut throughout will be poignant stop-motion animation bringing to life the pain, joy, triumph and sorrow of our interviewees.

I'd really like to see this one get made. I think that even if someone doesn't agree with some of the positions of the people being interviewed it's helpful to the larger discussion about sex and religion to interact with them.

The more spiritual way of stating this feeling is, "I hope I get married before the Rapture."

"Married" is how preacher boys say "laid."

Not just preacher boys. I will probably never admit how much that had to do with my various dating relationships and/or marriage.

Footage and interviews are complete, and they're in the film editing stage it would seem.
