“Beliefs belong in church...”
BULLCRAP! A belief that stays in church isn’t worth a bucket of warm spit. If your belief doesn’t direct your life, it isn’t a belief, it’s an aphorism, a bumper sticker.
If you go to a Christian chaplain for advice, you’d better darn will expect CHRISTIAN advice! If you don’t want Christian advice, DON’T GO TO A CHRISTIAN CHAPLAIN!!!
A Christian who does not offer Christian advice when asked is derelict in his duty - let alone a Chaplain.
“A Christian who does not offer Christian advice when asked is derelict in his duty - let alone a Chaplain.”
AMEN BROTHER
My favorite Chaplain was Catholic Priest Otto Sporrer -- who earned a Silver Star for removing his chaplain insignia, taking command, and leading an armed military retreat during the Korean War disaster at the Chosin reservoir.
Before WW-II, Sporrer preached against America going to war against Germany.
Then, Pearl Harbor happened and he went off to be a Chaplain.
PS ... The Chosin story about Sporrer's heroism can be found in the Book "Chesty" ... about Marine general Chesty Puller's career.
Should I go to a Catholic, Protestant, Episcopalian, Mormon, Muslim, or ... what?
There are many religions out there and I prefer to take advice from people - and books - that work with facts.
