I really think this is being blown way out of proportion by Breitbart.

Yea, too bad they exposed the Pentagon getting courtmartial advice from a guy like this:

...(A) Breitbart News report on Obama administration Pentagon appointees meeting with anti-Christian extremist Mikey Weinstein to develop court-martial procedures to punish Christians in the military who express or share their faith.

Weinstein is the head of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, and says Christians--including chaplains--sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ in the military are guilty of “treason,” and of committing an act of “spiritual rape” as serious a crime as “sexual assault.” He also asserted that Christians sharing their faith in the military are “enemies of the Constitution.”

So you are good with hiding all of this from the public, and the posters here at Free Republic? And do you agree with the anti-Christian extreamist's statements?

I've not seen chaplains proselytize, actually. They hold religious services, they are more than willing to talk to Soldiers who come to them, but I've not seen Chaplains try to "recruit" for their particular flavor of religion.

And what is the definition of “proselytizing?”

Is the sharing of differing opinions, and why they should be considered, “proselytizing?”

It’s coming on us fast, isn’t it?

I heard a great Man say, once... “when you see these things come to pass, look up, for your redemption is nigh”.

Time for all Christians to get out of the military.

And then what happens when the military hardware is exclusively in the hands of those who are hostile to Christianity?

I’m telling you this has been military policy (for good reason) for decades. Just because some anti-Christian nut who undoubtedly loves Obama said some stuff doesn’t mean anyone’s taking him remotely seriously. Obama may even want such policies implemented, but until he burns the Constitution and a whole stack of Bibles on live TV, it ain’t gonna happen.

If you don’t have the right to persuade others about fundamental ideas, you don’t have freedom. You especially don’t have religious freedom.

Apparently no God either.

That's an entirely different problem that has been festering all throughout our country, not just the military.

Looks like Obama's Pentagon wants everyone worshipping the (false) gods of the Sodomites. Praying for strength and conviction for any Believers serving under this antichrist policy.

Joshua 24:15:

"And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord."

Acts 4:18-20:

“So they called them and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus. But Peter and John answered and said to them, “Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you more than to God, you judge. For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.

"This has been the case for a while."

Sodomy has been criminalized under the UCMJ "for a while." Why are some regs and standards being rigidly enforced and others openly flouted?

B/c it’s unenforceable? Just like criminalizing Christianity is.

As to why such regs are put in place, I have no clue. Ask Congress, they’re the kings of implementing unenforceable rules.

That's what they want them to do. Decimate the military.

Muslims don’t share their faith. They just kill you if you don’t share their faith. So, that’s okay.

My question also. They won’t. They’re cowards.
