Coded references? Apparently, the author is too ignorant to recognize that these are direct Scriptural references not coded references.

One of the citations on the gun sights, 2COR4:6, is an apparent reference to Second Corinthians 4:6 of the New Testament, which reads: "For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ."

An apparent reference? If the author, who has access to a Bible, is too stupid to understand that these are direct references, how exactly does he think the enemy, without access to a Bible, is going to decipher these mysterious coded references?

"This is probably the best example of violation of the separation of church and state in this country," said Weinstein. "It's literally pushing fundamentalist Christianity at the point of a gun against the people that we're fighting. We're emboldening an enemy."

Right. /sarc

This is the most twisted statement of "logic"? I've ever seen.

A >"This is probably the best example of violation of the separation of church and state in this country," a non existent tenent

B "It's literally pushing fundamentalist Christianity at the point of a gun" An address from the Bible, silent, on a piece of equipment, is not "pushing" anything.

C "against the people that we're fighting." We aren't trying to convert them, we are trying to kill them.

D "We're emboldening an enemy" Why would anything, other than rolling over and playing dead "embolden" anybody? Do these people know how idiotic they sound?
