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

Posted on 08/14/2013 2:22:16 PM PDT by ducttape45

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.”

Could veterans get together and form some group that can combat this?

If, pray to God, we ever get another Ronald Reagan, I hope he cleans up the military pronto. But it will be like cleaning a stable by then.

Organized gayness has shown its fanatical intentions for years now. There is no excuse for sticking your heads in the sand.

No, I'm not politically correct!

The same lady chaplain I referred to earlier also tried to change the Air Force Song from "God Guard and Guide the Men Who Fly," to "God Guard and Guide the Ones Who Fly."

Needless to say every time we sang that song in a base setting, I was sure to stand next to her and sing it with the appropriate words, just go get her goat.

Oh man, did I make her mad!!!!

They’d be outnumbered, outgunned, and told that their viewpoint is no longer the viewpoint of the United States Air Force.

I think we would have to overhaul the Supreme Court and the Senate .in order to clean up the schools, colleges, media and military. That’s not something a President can do by him/herself. It would require a whole new line of thinking across the entire population. Consequently, I think we have to fall a lot farther into the sewage pit before people will be anxious to clean their minds and bodies. Praying to God for Salvation is the only answer that I know of.

lady chaplain

So, was she a Christian chaplain, or a baby-killing/muncher chaplain?

I woke up to it in the late 80s. I hadn’t paid any attention until then. Mid to late 80s. Once I read up, I realized what their intentions were.

And unfortunately, I’ve been proven correct.

I saw this elsewhere, seems to fit, thought I'd share:

Just as the Lord cares for our salvation, so the devil, the killer of men, strives to lead man to despondency. When despondency seizes us, let us not give in to it. Rather, fortified and protected by the light of faith, let us with great courage say to the spirit of evil: “What are you to us, you who are cut off from God, a fugitive from Heaven, and a slave of evil? You dare not do anything to us: Christ, the Son of God, has dominion over us and over all. Leave us, you thing of bane. We are made steadfast by the uprightness of His Cross. Serpent, we trample on your head.”

Hey, I like.

Of course we could give Old Scratch a more direct raspberry here. “Hey Devil! Did you really think you were going to out fox God?”

Really believing is what counts here. The shield of faith, with which we can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the Evil One.

The devil can only work by obscuring the light of God. God is there all the time shedding light. We have little skirmishes with the devil (which we learn to win by using God’s light) but God already won the war.

with the exception of pilots and air crews that service in the AF is a cake walk?

Don't say that to Tactical maintenance and weapons crews! It may be that way now but it wasn't back when.

What I find most frightening here is the commentary insisting that gays are now a “protected class” in America and therefore immune to criticism. That seems to me to be an accurate reading of Anthony Kennedy’s recent ruling. Incidents like this follow logically from it. And even worse (for Christians) is likely to be on the horizon.

When I was in the USAF (1966-1969) each year we were required to go in for a reading of the military laws against homosexuality. Then we had to sign a paper showing we had read the laws on it.

While in Basic at Lackland, we had to pull KP at the OUTPROCESSING homo barracks for people being kicked out.

We were told we would see things that were not to be talked about! We were not to laugh, snigger (Opps can I say that?)
or anything!

We saw plenty! Our DI assistant told us that at night things went on in that barracks that would make you sick! Now they are the norm.
