I think the Navy decided that in the overall scheme of things it didn’t matter anyway so why bother employing him?

Besides the job description doesn’t mention making foot prints in the sand.

Why would an atheist need a chaplain, can’t they contemplate their imminent mortality alone?

IIRC, you need to be ordained by a religious body and on thier roster before becoming a chaplain. So he failed that part unless he joined the Unitarians.

Atheists are idiots if not deceivers.
