If he made the remarks in church one would assume that the people had the same God the General has. If he made the remarks in uniform, well that's like wearing a business suit for people like me. I see no problem at all, though I might if the talks were given in other places while in uniform.

There are effective rules about speeches by military personnel. You basically clear everything ahead of time. If you screw up....you get reprimanded or kicked out. Its simple. I doubt that the General ever read the rules or ever cared for them. The problem is that you could have some military general with the exact opposite type speech...and we'd have to take action against him....so I think this dude ought to take whatever evenhanded punishment that they dish out. He earned it one way or another.
