Unfortunately for me that group was not banned, and now I have eternal life in the kingdom of Jesus, oh what a bummer.

That is funny right there.

Stop throwing rocks, you're wrong.

The link included has a headline that says, "Pentagon MAY Court Martial Soldiers Who Share Christian Faith."

In that story is a statement that confirms the headline:

“Religious proselytization is not permitted within the Department of Defense, LCDR Nate Christensen said in a written statement. He declined to say if any chaplains or service members had been prosecuted for such an offense.

“Court martials and non-judicial punishments are decided on a case-by-case basis and it would be inappropriate to speculate on the outcome in specific cases,” he said.

So it's not a lie. Stop throwing rocks. Your guy who's president and his military leaders are actively trying to purge the military of vocal Christians.

Hey Jermy, your president is an elitist, hypocritical, lying, narcissistic, arrogant, lazy, self-entitled, privileged, overhyped, underachiever.

And every one of those words are true about him.

The tone of this thread and the article made it seem to me that something new was about to happen and that President Obama was spearheading the idea to court martial evangelical Christians.


The link is very deceptive!
It's written to create a false sense of fear of something that's about to happen.

It's not even on President Obama's radar to do such nonsense! The law that prevents proselytizing is already written and was in place before Obama.


The article even has a link to sign to "stop this from happening"...

It's deception!
An attempt to demonize President Obama (again) and an attempt to politicize my faith (again).

No they are not.
The law was already there and no one is going to get court martialed.

This article is much ado about nothing!

President Obama is the far right's favorite boogie man!

Who are these so-called Pentagon appointees and how far removed are these knuckleheads from ANYONE the President of the United States would appoint?


Again... DECEPTION!
These are the kinds of articles that gin up the idiots clinging to their religion and their guns. It's dis-information and it is anything but honest!

Hey Jermyn...you went off about people lying about Obama and Christians in the military. Here's something else for you:

Obama ‘Strongly Objects’ to Religious Liberty Amendment

The Obama Administration “strongly objects” to a proposed amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act on Wednesday that would have protected the religious rights of soldiers – including evangelical Christian service members who are facing growing hostility towards their religion.

The amendment was authored by Rep. John Fleming, R-La. It would have “required the Armed Forces to accommodate ‘actions and speech’ reflecting the conscience, moral, principles or religious beliefs of the member.”

This is just stupid. We're already supposed to have First Amendment rights, which includes freedom of religion; yet Obama's been blocking those rights for our soldiers.

And why would he be so against it?

The Obama Administration said the amendment would have a “significant adverse effect on good order, discipline, morale, and mission accomplishment.”

Seriously? So allowing Christians in the military to live out their faith will have an adverse effect on good order, discipline, morale and mission accomplishment?

Still want to defend your Prezzy, Jermyn?

Rep Fleming:

“This administration is aggressively hostile towards religious beliefs that it deems to be politically incorrect.”

Fleming introduced the amendment after a series of high-profile incidents involving attacks on religious liberty within the military- including an Air Force officer who was told to remove a Bible from his desk because it might give the impression he was endorsing a religion.

He said there are other reports of Christian service members and chaplains being punished for their faith.

• The Air Force censored a video created by a chaplain because it include the word “God.” The Air Force feared the word might offend Muslims and atheists.
• A service member received a “severe and possibly career-ending reprimand” for expressing his faith’s religious position about homosexuality in a personal religious blog.
• A senior military official at Fort Campbell sent out a lengthy email officially instructing officers to recognize “the religious right in America” as a “domestic hate group” akin to the KKK and Neo-Nazis because of its opposition to homosexual behavior.
• A chaplain was relieved of his command over a military chapel because, consistent with DOMA’s definition of marriage, he could not allow same-sex weddings to take place in the chapel.

I know this must cause you a lot of pain, Jermyn, but your President does not like Christians and he does not want them openly serving in the military.

“The bottom line is the military is bending over backwards to remove – even in the case of chaplains – expressions of faith and conscience,” Fleming said.

Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, called the Obama Administration’s edict a “chilling suppression of religious freedom.”

What excuse you going to give for Obama now?
