Wicca is a nature-based religion based on respect for the earth, nature and the cycle of the seasons.

Ditto goes for the "Global Warming" crowd.

It is nothing but paganism, which is a rejection of the true God.

They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.

Romans 1:25

DITTO.

That wicca thing is just creepy. I wouldn’t want it on a grave.

It is nothing but paganism, which is a rejection of the true God. a belief system just as protected by the First Amendment as Christianity.

We're talking about veterans who, by their deeds, have earned the right to be buried at Arlington. To deny them their chosen symbol is wrong on many levels.

Agreed. One of the freedoms God gave us was the right to choose how to worship Him. We can deal with Him later if we made the wrong choice there.

[ItisaReligionofPeace]

Exactly. Love of Country is what is important here.

I have observed some weird burial ceremonies in The Garden at Arlington. This should set a new standard.

They do. And I think that someone who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country deserves the religious symbol of their choice on their headstone.

[just me]

You are right, I just think it is creepy. They should be allowed to have what ever they want. I have never seen one on a head stone. God bless the boys who keep me safe.

Will the JEDI be the next honored?

So Barry Lynn defended these people? I thought he was for the separation of church and state? Apparantly that only applies to Christians, because if your religon happens to be Wiccan, he wants the government involved. I would have understood his position more if he had filed to have no symbols placed on the graves

That being said, if one gives their life for our country, they have the right to have their symbol placed on their tombstone. I'll let God decide right and wrong in the afterlife.

You called that one right. If they want to worship the swastika, its ok with me. They did their duty for the nation and want a symbol on their headstone. Thats not much to ask.

p.s. the swastika was around long before the Nazis. (Comment added for those who have no historical reference beyond the media.)

[Bulldawg Fan]

Why not just put a neon marker up on these graves saying: Gone to Hell.

[Bulldawg Fan]

Barry Lynn uses his “Rev” title extensively in his efforts to destroy Christianity. When he and his fellow scum preach seperation of church and state, they actually seek Elimination of Church in the state.

[Muzzle_em]

I’m a Christian and I actually agree with you.
If this was important to them and this was their religion (as much as I disagree with their beliefs), then I’m of the opinion they should have whatever religious symbol they want on their headstones.
Their beliefs (or lack of) are between them and God.

Didn't you see the South Park episode. Only the Mormons are right.

Nice Strawman.

Which "true god" of the tens of thousands worshipped by man over the millennia would that be?

FRiend, I don’t watch South Park, but I am a Mormon. Way I heard it (from my Baptist-minister stepfather) only the Baptists are right... ;)
