There is a chronic shortage of active duty Catholic chaplains. While roughly 25% of the military is Catholic, Catholic priests make up only about 8% of the chaplain corps. That means approximately 275,000 men and women in uniform, and their families, are served by only 234 active-duty priests.

The easiest way to fix this problem is to have Catholic clergy advise Catholics to leave the armed forces in droves. A committed, faithful Catholic has no business serving Caesar when Caesar can no longer justify his existence in the eyes of God and man.
