Wow, since no one has posted this, I guess I will have to. Must I do everything myself ;)

[Joe 6-pack]

LOL...beat me by 0:45 seconds!

Just how does this work since same sex marriages are not legal in every state?

[liberalh8ter]

Since only 4 States currently recognize same sex and we’re supposed to have a DOMA, wouldn’t the military be subverting a majority of U.S. Law?

Final line of the ceremony;

“Who wants fudge?”

[xzins]

That would be a desecration of a chapel, and desecration is forbidden. Satanists, for example, are not permitted to desecrate cross, communion, or bibles in military chapels.

Catholics, orthodox, and other Christian chaplain in the lineage of historic Christianity should request separate chapels, and should request of their denominations statements affirming that homosexual marriage inside their buildings would be a desecration.

This turns my stomach and I wonder what the HELL is going on the military these days?

[little jeremiah]

Beyond madness.

[little jeremiah]

Will they force chaplains to do this.

[ladyjane]

If only the Navy could get back their Philipino cabin boys none of this would happen. ;-)

[rokkitapps]

stuff like this makes me think we are living in the last days of this age.

[Siena Dreaming]

The article says they can only perform the ceremony in states where gay marriage is legal.

Navy Authorizes Chaplains to Perform Same-Sex ‘Marriages’ in Naval Chapels

The Navy will only perform burial services according to the Koran, but will NOT perform Same Sex "marriages" according to the Koran. I say we get the ACLU working on this right away...

[Responsibility2nd]

There will be a bunch of chaplains resigning being forced to resign for standing up for normal moral Christian convictions which are in direct opposition to military policy.

I've repeated this often: Our chaplians will be demoted and even court martialed when they even dare to preach the fundamental thruths that homosexuality is a sin.

[kalee]

I guess wasn’t very clear. Let’s say John and Joe marry on base in a state where it is legal, but are then stationed in a state where it is not, whose law prevails?
This looks like an end run around state laws by the feds.

[phormer phrog phlyer]

What about dependent ID cards will that vary from state to state?

[Gilbo_3]

can the skipper ‘marry’ two semens while underway ??? imagine the fireworks available and the honeymoon destinations offered...

[Grunthor]

“and that Navy chaplains will be allowed”

What if they refuse?

[Cheerio]

It's over - as far as accepting same sex marriage in the military the policy was sealed last Dec when the DEMS and the GOP gave the Obozo the repeal of DADT. Death to both political parties. It could have been filibustered.

Senate Repeals Ban Against Openly Gay Military Personnel
By a vote of 65 to 31, with eight Republicans joining Democrats, the Senate approved and sent to President Obama a repeal of the Clinton-era law, known as “don’t ask, don’t tell,” a policy critics said amounted to government-sanctioned discrimination that treated gay and lesbian troops as second-class citizens.

This is the day I knew I could not longer pray for the right course of action by the USA Government.
