Airmen Punished for Objecting to Gay Marriage
Fox News ^ | 8/14/2013 | Todd Starnes

A 19-year veteran of the Air Force said he was relieved of his duties after he disagreed with his openly gay commander when she wanted to severely punish an instructor who had expressed religious objections to homosexuality.

“I was relieved of my position because I don’t agree with my commander’s position on gay marriage,” Senior Master Sgt. Phillip Monk told Fox News. “We’ve been told that if you publicly say that homosexuality is wrong, you are in violation of Air Force policy.”

I got passed over for promotion several times, and received adverse evaluations because of my strong religious, and family values. I retired an E-6 vice E-7 or 8, and you know I don't really care, I am enjoying the retirement.

The GayGB is now in charge of our military. Horrifying.

I agree with what you say, but do you ever feel like you are watching a bad movie that will never end.

Blood of Tyrants: “Now the persecution begins...”

So be it. I will not bend the truth if asked my opinion. If anyone dares take action against me for expressing my religious beliefs, I will sue and continue to use the opportunity to stand up for what’s right. If that ultimately means I’m punished for standing for Christ, so be it!

DYngbld: “I got passed over for promotion several times, and received adverse evaluations because of my strong religious, and family values.”

Good for you! Christians throughout history have been persecuted for the faith. The apostles considered it a great honor to be persecuted. We once lived in exceptional times when the military (and country) predominately stood for morality. Those times are now over, and we should be prepared for what’s coming.

I’m not saying it’s always easy to do the right thing, but the Lord is on our side. Who can possibly be against us? No one! Plus, Christianity often thrived during times of oppression. It’s the way Christians willingly stood for the faith in spite of punishment that won many others to the faith. So if the left thinks this is going to go easy for them, they’re wrong. They’ll inspire Christians to turn ever more faithfully to Christ!

Indeed

The perverts pushing acceptance of this abomination are merely old fashioned bullies. Have courage and speak the truth it is the best and most effective weapon.

Will there be consequences? Yes. But the consequences of inaction are worse.

If God is for us, then who can be against us?

Once Obama dreamed out loud about building a civilian corps to parallel the military.

Now it looks as if he has just decided to convert the military from a fighting force into Progeressive social group as another way to put homosexuals, moochers, Obama voters and the terminal unemployable on the federal payroll.

I predict the fragging rate will increase as time goes on. Law of unintended consequences. No one is going to put their life on the line for this PC bull crap.

Absolutely. Some won't go quietly, and the fragging will increase.

Good order and discipline now means “if you disagree on personal moral grounds with what I believe, you will be punished until/unless you publically state that you endorse my personal beliefs and actions.”

Air-drop massive amounts of clashing color combinations of paint on the enemy, and the kweers will beat the crap outta the enemy.

If there is one thing I know about the Air Force is when it comes to Politics you sit there and take it (what an apt metaphor)

When they have their little Annual Training, they aren't looking for your opinion or approval (despite what they say) it is just the Air Force laying down the line on what it is going to be.

I predict the fragging rate will increase and that it will be Christians and ethical, patriotic people being targeted.
