Awwww. The poor atheists have been viiiictims being exposed to all those Christians in the military - going to church and praying and all.

If the military takes up the atheist cause and harasses Christians out of the service, the atheists will have no more US military to whine about. They can fight with the fudge packers and the satanists for the amoral spoils of their military utopia.

Hmmm. I guess that would be on somebody’s bucket list as they enter battle. Just hope and uh, hope :) that there is a card-carrying member of “Atheists in Foxholes” out there to support you.

Probably one of the most egregious attacks on religious freedom in the military occurred in repealing DADT. Tens of millions of Jewish, Christian, and Muslim believers saw their First Amendment rights vanishing with repeal. For many followers of desert religions, who send their pastors into the chaplaincy and their believers into military service, homosexual behavior is unacceptable. Instead it resides among the myriad sins entrapping humanity that lives in a fallen world.

For them foundational scholarship concludes homosexual relationships separate believers from God. The Old Testament, holy to “People of the Book”, speaks of the character, identity, and purpose of God in a manner, which continuously addresses homosexuality. God is always identified as masculine, and all humans become feminine in relation to Him. In addition to creating all things, God created the single institution of heterosexual marriage. Such is the earthy manifestation for the relationship of absolute unity and love He seeks with each person.

Classical Semitic theology emphasizes searching for and identifying with God in the spiritual dimension. Worthy actions and thoughts become those finding pleasure by reinforcing the faith commitment to this spiritual relationship. For Jewish, Christian, and Muslim believers, any subsequent reasoning from scriptures must derive from that basic understanding. Therefore after repeal, when believers reject homosexual behavior in counseling rolls and normal life activities, these people reside outside Constitutional boundaries guaranteeing First Amendment freedoms. They become guilty by popular acclamation of at least cultural prejudice, if not criminal behavior.
