US Military Treatment Of Atheists - Page 4

I find it interesting that often, the same people who are saying they shouldn't be held responsible for the views of other Christian groups, are the ones who are often most vocal in demanding that moderate moslems should be more proactive in condemning fundamentalist Islamists. I've seen time and time again on these boards, people claiming that they rarely, if ever, hear moderate moslems speak out.

What's good for the goose, is good for the gander. Different Christian communities are not responsible for other Christian communities. Moderate Moslems are not responsible for the mad mullah brigade.

Are U.S. Troops Being Force-Fed Christianity?
Watchdog Group Alleges that Improper Evangelizing Is Occurring Within the Ranks
At Speicher base in Iraq, U.S. Army Spec. Jeremy Hall got permission from a chaplain in August to post fliers announcing a meeting for atheists and other nonbelievers. When the group gathered, Hall alleges, his Army major supervisor disrupted the meeting and threatened to retaliate against him, including blocking his reenlistment in the Army.

Months earlier, Hall charges, he had been publicly berated by a staff sergeant for not agreeing to join in a Thanksgiving Day prayer.

On Sept. 17, the soldier and the Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF) filed suit against Army Maj. Freddy Welborn and U.S. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates, charging violations of Hall's constitutional rights, including being forced to submit to a religious test to qualify as a soldier.
