"Mr. Baugham said the 350 chaplains he oversees are concerned about a new set of guidelines issued in August after complaints about Christian evangelism at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs. The Air Force guidelines allow "a brief, nonsectarian prayer" during military ceremonies "to add a heightened sense of seriousness or solemnity, not to advance specific religious beliefs."
This has nothing to do with the President. It has to do with the DOD, Air Force. From an AF wife.
Yes, it has to do with the DOD as you say. But from what I understand, he wants the president to intercede with an executive order. I really don't know if that is feasible. But I still believe that a representative of the state (whoever that may be) should approve a Christian chaplain calling on the name of Jesus who is the foundation of the faith. I somehow can't image that Muslim chaplins aren't allowed to mention Allah. Whoever issued that rule would become subject to a death fatwah.
Yeppers...talk to Rummie
Right. He's not the commander in chief or anything like that.
That is not a "prayer" then - so why call it such.
