Jesus freak is a term arising from the late 1960s and early 1970s counterculture and is frequently used as a pejorative for those involved in the Jesus movement. As Tom Wolfe illustrates in The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test, the term "freak" with a preceding qualifier was a strictly neutral term and described any counterculture member with a specific interest in a given subject; hence "acid freak" and "Jesus freak". The term "freak" was in common-enough currency that Hunter S. Thompson's failed bid for sheriff of Pitkin County, Colorado, was as a member of the "Freak Power" party. However, many later members of the movement, those misunderstanding the countercultural roots, believed the term to be negative, and co-opted and embraced the term, and its usage broadened to describe a Christian s

| - Jesus freak es un término que surge de la contracultura de fines de la década de los sesenta y principios de los setenta y se usa frecuentemente como peyorativo para aquellos involucrados en el movimiento de Jesús. Como lo ilustra Tom Wolfe en The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test, el término "freak" con un calificador anterior fue un término estrictamente neutral y describió a cualquier miembro de la contracultura con un interés específico en un tema determinado; De ahí el "fanático del ácido" y el "fanatico de Jesús". El término "freak" estaba en una divisa lo suficientemente común como para que la oferta fallida de Hunter S. Thompson por el alguacil del condado de Pitkin, Colorado, fuera parte del partido "Freak Power". Sin embargo, muchos miembros posteriores del movimiento, aquellos que malinterpretan las raíces contraculturales creyeron que el término era negativo, y optaron y aceptaron el término, su uso se amplió para describir una subcultura cristiana en todo el hippie y el regreso a la tierra. Estos movimientos se centraron en el amor universal y el pacifismo disfrutaban de la naturaleza radical del mensaje de Jesús. Los fanáticos de Jesús a menudo llevaban y distribuían copias de " Good News for Modern Man " una traducción de 1966 del Nuevo Testamento escrita en inglés moderno. En Australia y en otros países, el término fanático de Jesús, junto con el basher de la Biblia, todavía se usa de manera despectiva. En Alemania hay una cultura juvenil cristiana, también llamada Jesus Freaks que afirma tener sus raíces en el movimiento estadounidense. (es)

However, many later members of the movement, those misunderstanding the countercultural roots, believed the term to be negative, and co-opted and embraced the term, and its usage broadened to describe a Christian subculture throughout the hippie and back-to-the-land movements that focused on universal love and pacifism, and relished the radical nature of Jesus' message. Jesus freaks often carried and distributed copies of the Good News for Modern Man, a 1966 translation of the New Testament written in modern English. In Australia, and other countries, the term "Jesus freak", along with "Bible basher", is still used in a derogatory manner. In Germany, there is a Christian youth culture, also called Jesus Freaks International, that claims to have its roots in the U.S. movement. (en)
