Why is asking people to pray at lunchtime, ON THEIR OWN TIME, at home, any sort of violation?
“Military Religious Freedom Foundation” = Atheist leftists who hate America.
Not a “Religious Website” as per the lying dirtbag media who should be shot.
Because the issue is never the issue. The issue is always the revolution.
I suspect, however, that if the General had suggested that people performed Dhuhr, the midday prayer required in the Quran, during lunch time in their own homes, that the Religious Freedom Foundation would never have responded.
“Why is asking people to pray at lunchtime, ON THEIR OWN TIME, at home, any sort of violation?”
It’s not, and that is what the Sec. of Def. should tell them.
The sooner we begin to ignore these kinds of people, the better off we will be.
Just ignore them unless they do something illegal or collude to do something damaging to the nation.
So what?
In the 1940s, the US Government Printing office printed BIBLES for US troops. FDR even had a statement encouraging the troops to read and take comfort from them.
Preach! This cannot be driven home often enough.
We are distracted by the "issue" only to miss the larger agenda. Not that the issue used should be ignored.
I hereby issue an official demand for Mikey Weinstein to put a sock in it.
The very mention of GOD is kryptonite to a lefty!
“The very mention of GOD is kryptonite to a lefty!”
One can only wish it really were kryptonite.
Galaxy level Obamaholes like Weinstein don’t have the cojones to try something like that with Muzzies.
The "Religious Website" referred to in the headline was the Prayer at Lunchtime for the United States" website owned by the General. That's what the wankers at MRFF are upset about.
Good grief.
That website is not connected to the Air Force, so Mikey Weinstein, who instigates all this anti-Christian crap can shove it up his a**.
Because Democrats are violent totalitarian thugs.
The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been playing the government roulette wheel for years now. It is quite evident that they will only be satisfied with a complete elimination of Judeo-Christian activities anywhere in the US Military and they apparently have a war chest and enough legal success to keep pursuing that goal. This is the pernicious fruit from the 1962 Warren Court case banning government-organized prayer in schools.
Atheism is a religion that is utterly intolerant of all other religions.
This pisses me off to no end! The muzz get to have time out from their work day to stick their butts in the air, and that’s on their employers’ time, not on their own lunch time.
If there is any conflict with regulations, some may find it in a loose interpretation of “presenting ‘controversial’ views while ‘wearing the uniform’ “, with the General’s clear description of himself interpreted as “wrapping himself in the uniform”. That is not hard to imagine if we think like the lawyers who are going to be the ones to go after the General.
