U.S. Army labels Southern Baptist Convention 'hostile'

The United States Army has blocked the website of the Southern Baptist Convention from government computers, saying the Christian site contains "hostile content."

An Army officer assigned to a U.S. base said he tried to access SBC.net from his government computer, but instead, he got a message that said the site was being blocked by "Team CONUS": Team CONUS protects the computer network of the Department of Defense.

"So the Southern Baptist Convention is now considered hostile to the U.S. Army...it just corroborates the recent string of events highlighted by AFA," the officer wrote in an email to American Family Association.

This is just another example of the Christian faith coming under attack in the military. Earlier this month, an Army email listed prominent Christian ministries like the Family Research Council and American Family Association as "domestic hate groups."

Actually, it seems that some U.S. Army officers are hostile to the Southern Baptist Convention.

Muslims good, Christians bad.

Would appear to be against the 1st amendment prohibitions on blocking religious expression.

only information American soldiers need is from the “Religion of Peace” websites....

My guess would be that much of what is occurring in the military is designed to discourage ‘undesirable’ types from joining.

Because the Southern Baptists are against the homosexual agenda.

Well,it fits actually.After all,military veterans were labeled as domestic enemies a few years ago by DHS.Forty plus years ago,when I joined the Army,one of the forms I had to fill out was a questionnaire about membership in potentially dangerous organizations.Groups like the Communist Party and other genuinely subversive groups.Today,the dangerous ones are Southern Baptists,Catholics and veterans.

UN....BLEEPING...BELIEVABLE.

Good grief..the total transformation of America is almost complete.

Interesting. Our Sunday school teacher at a Southern Baptist church is an Army officer.
