Breaking: Pentagon Confirms May Court Martial Soldiers Who Share Christian Faith
Breitbart ^

The Pentagon has released a statement confirming that soldiers could be prosecuted for promoting their faith: "Religious proselytization is not permitted within the Department of Defense...Court martials and non-judicial punishments are decided on a case-by-case basis....
The statement, released to Fox News, follows a Breitbart News report on Obama administration Pentagon appointees meeting with anti-Christian extremist Mikey Weinstein to develop court-martial procedures to punish Christians in the military who express or share their faith.
(From our earlier report: Weinstein is the head of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, and says Christians--including chaplains--sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ in the military are guilty of treason, and of committing an act of spiritual rape as serious a crime as sexual assault. He also asserted that Christians sharing their faith in the military are enemies of the Constitution.)
Being convicted in a court martial means that a soldier has committed a crime under federal military law. Punishment for a court martial can include imprisonment and being dishonorably discharged from the military.

Just the Christian chaplains and chaplain assistants, or the Jewish and Islamic ones also?

There used to be a saying: There are no atheists in foxholes. Of course, zero has no concept of what a foxhole is or what it is used for.

Time for all Christians to get out of the military.
Respectfully disagree Sir. Our standing instructions (orders) are to be content with the circumstances where we are and to be salt and light shining...to assist whomever we can from falling into The Pit.

I have to agree, otherwise there will be no chaplains. It’s probably in response to that major that shot those people and refused to shave.

And the de-Christianization of the US military continues.

Meaning "Allah Akbar" is OK, "Jesus Saves" can get you jailed.

Of course I am sure that this Weinstein creep does not intend for this to apply to Muslims or Wiccans. Only christians and jews I guess.

If a person is pestering others, then it could prevent harmony within the group. If a guy has merely mentioned that he’s a Christian and proud of it, or has been approached with sincere questions, then I see no problem at all.
I am not comfortable with this administration and it’s lackeys overseeing U. S. policy.

Hah..my question exactly!!!
To: Nachum
If Christians leave the military, or decline to enlist, they will institute the involuntary draft instead.
Which is probably the real goal.
They don't want an elite army that can be effective abroad.
They want an unmotivated army that can be deployed here at home.
The fewer Christians and the more Atheists and Muslims the better to further the jackboot agenda.
