“The director of the Houston VA National Cemetery, Arleen Ocasio, has ordered the burial teams to instruct that religious references, as well as prayer, are no longer to be included as part of the burial services.”

They need to fire her ass. From a cannon.

This must be one of the unintended consequences from the repeal of “DADT”. God “offends” fags.

Is this still America?

I don’t see how this can be constitutional. Okay, so the government can’t enact laws promoting a religion. But do they have the power to exclude a religion? Hell no!

Of course the USSA will be officially atheist.

What did anybody expect?

The State will permit nothing above The State.

I didn’t post # 8 in response to your # 7. Just one those examples of great minds think alike.

"I don't understand why anyone needs her permission....just do it. "

Really, what can she do? What's the penalty for ignoring her ban?

Who are these people who tell me what or what I can’t say? They got a lot of nerve! “Land of the free”? LOL! Sure...whatever!

I’ll say what I want, when I want and in what context. If they don’t like it, they can lump it. And I’ll be glad and eager to meet them “after school” too.

I bet she folds when some Muslim soldier’s family wants to “hold a service in Arabic.” In which the imam gets to chant about Allah about 40 or 50 times. They may duly provide her the text — in Arabic of course. And she’ll rubber stamp it.

Should Christians secure the services of someone who speaks New Testament Greek? Jews, Old Testament Hebrew?
