Religious Groups Fear Christian Purge From Military
Townhall ^

Posted on 05/01/2013 12:10:53 PM PDT by Java4Jay

Religious liberty groups have grave concerns after they learned the Pentagon is vetting its guide on religious tolerance with a group that compared Christian evangelism to “rape” and advocated that military personnel who proselytize should be court martialed.

Pentagon officials met to discuss a policy called “Air Force Culture, Air Force Standards,” published on Aug. 7, 2012.

Section 2.11 requires “government neutrality regarding religion.”

Every Christian should stay and more should join.

Christians should NOT cut and run.
Christians should STAND and Overcome!

Who do they think is actually going to fight the battles? The queers will cut and run at the first sign of conflict. You can’t win your enemy with fashion sense.

Every Christian should leave and not join the Military.

The last thing this nation needs is an atheistic, immoral military beholden to Obama and other socialists of his ilk. There will be a quick loss of freedom if folks do that. Can you say Tiananmen Square?

Americans should join the military in droves and disobey unlawful orders, for it is Army Regulation that a soldier is JUDICIALLY REQUIRED to DISOBEY an unlawful order, and they can be charged if they do NOT disobey an unlawful order.

stunning how the military has been infested with PC in these last few years and how some still serving can’t see it because they would rather focus on their promotion

That’s what I was going to say. If the military doesn’t want people of faith, then they should not join. The military can have all their gay/lesbians, though, that’s OK, as long as they are not religious.
What is this country coming to? Seems these days everything is turned upside down.

The problem is that this isn't the boy scouts we are talking about. It is not JCPenney. There is an actual, real need for the US Military. One that cannot be filled by just anyone.

If Ubomba's goal was to make it a safer world for our enemies then emptying the military of Christians and filling it with homosexuals is a great success for him.

At that point, they’ll do what they’ve been wanting to do all along, turn the military on the conservatives & Christians.

Colo. Sheriff Alleges Shock Training to TheBlaze: DHS-Bound Official Warned Against ‘Christians
************************

"The Obama administration’s Department of Defense was caught training U.S. troops that Catholics, orthodox Jews, and evangelical Christians are to be considered “religious extremists,” even equating the major religions representing more than half of Americans with truly violent groups such as al-Qaeda, the Ku Klux Klan, and Hamas. After the explosive revelations hit the headlines, outrage promptly ensued. Now, critics are calling for an immediate public apology to the soldiers exposed to the hateful propaganda, as well as to the Christian and Jewish communities targeted in the presentation.

The latest scandal to hit the Obama administration and its handling of the military surrounds a so-called “Equal Opportunity” training course [33-pg PDF file] presented to U.S. Army Reserve forces in Pennsylvania. During the presentation, troops were subjected to a slideshow that included a segment on what was dubbed “religious extremism.” At the top of the list — the very first item — was “evangelical Christianity” in the United States. Also included were “ultra-Orthodox” Jews, Catholicism, fundamentalist Mormons, and “Islamophobia.”

PENTAGON TAPS ANTI-CHRISTIAN EXTREMIST [Weinstein] FOR RELIGIOUS TOLERANCE POLICY [April 28, 2013]

"Today, we face incredibly well-funded gangs of fundamentalist Christian monsters who terrorize their fellow Americans by forcing their weaponized and twisted version of Christianity upon their helpless subordinates in our nation’s armed forces."

Those words were recently written by Mikey Weinstein, founder of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF), in a column he wrote for the Huffington Post. Weinstein will be a consultant to the Pentagon to develop new policies on religious tolerance, including a policy for court-martialing military chaplains who share the Christian Gospel during spiritual counseling of American troops.

Weinstein decries what he calls the “virulent religious oppression” perpetrated by conservative Christians, whom he refers to as “monstrosities” and “pitiable unconstitutional carpetbaggers,” comparing them to “bigots” in the Deep South during the civil rights era.

Well....we can't say they didn't warn us. The path is clear.

They just appointed a rabid Christian-hater who pens virulent anti-Christian vomit, worthy of a jihadist imam, to develop military policies on religious tolerance.

It would seem to me that Christians are less likely to fire on their own countrymen.

No, every Christian should rise up and demand this policy be changed and those responsible run out of town.

Years ago I learned an important business lesson. A company that lays off mostly or only Christians does so because they are about to or just did something that's very illegal.
