Resigning for cause is not “tossing them out”.

I don’t know what if any service you have, because your profile is blank, but here is the thing.

Many people leave the service for many reasons. Many left when Bill Clinton was elected, many will leave because of Bambi. Many leave because they can no longer put up with what they perceive as PC BS.

Some leave for family reasons, some for jobs in the private sector. My point is that instead of bitching about religion in the military, just resign and find yourself a nice little community of like-minded militant non-believers and leave the rest of us alone.

How about making life intolerable for anyone who wants to defend his country, but isn't quite the right kind of Christian. Is that okay? Say a Christian who might run afoul of this poster. Who should get out, you or the person who's going to pound his personal version of Christianity into your worthless skull until it caves in?

Not that it makes a difference in the point I was making, but I was in the Navy when it wasn't fashionable, 1973 - 1976. My midshipman training cruise included an opposed landing in Vietnam. If my service wasn't good enough for you, I think you know where you can go.

I suggest you begin a religious test for people who want to join the service. That will have the advantage of bringing U.S. policy more into line with that of our terrorist foes. Of course, you'll have to change the inconvenient parts of the Constitution, but what the hell ... you're doing God's work.
