It’s about dang time this happens. Heck, just last week evangelical Christians were once again lumped in with extremists at Fort Hood. And a few weeks ago it happened at Camp Shelby. You can’t tell me there isn’t some mastermind behind these briefings. After all, we know the Obama administration is replacing commanders in the military with ones who agree with them. Which means ‘radicals’.
FOX NEWS – The Secretary of the Army has ordered military leaders to halt all briefings on extremist organizations that labeled Evangelical Christian groups as domestic hate groups. The shutdown comes just four days after I reported exclusively about a briefing at Mississippi’s Camp Shelby that labeled the American Family Association as a domestic hate group.
“On several occasions over the past few months, media accounts have highlighted instances of Army instructors supplementing programs of instruction and including information or material that is inaccurate, objectionable and otherwise inconsistent with current Army policy,” Army Sec. John McHugh wrote to military leaders in a memorandum I obtained.

“Onward Christians Soldiers, marching as to War - - - “
BTW, “Onward” is such a much better word than “Forward.”
The people who came up with this program should be hung.
Mikey “Tough Guy Look at My Extended Fist in My Official Photo” Weinstein is doing a real dam-damn on the Air Force, accusing anyone who does Christian witness of a hate crime.
Anyway, this is nothing less than shining a flashlight on cockroaches. It works, and needs to be done more often.
We’re not East Germany, at least not yet.
It should come as no surprise that something like this exists. When a leading officer proudly says (in response to the Fort Hood massacre) that if the military were to have less diversity (specificially fewer Muslims)as a result of the massacre, then that would be worse than the massacre itself...then outrageous anti-Christian programs like this are to be expected.
The trouble with most Christians (including myself) is that they are not extreme enough. If God is real (which He is) and if he sent His Son for me (which He did) and if believing this allows the possibility of me entering heaven (which it does) then we ought to be doing extreme backflips and cartwheels. We ought to be the most dangerous people on the planet - and not because we are the best armed but because our life,our kingdom, is not of this world and our thinking is dangerous to the general order of things.
I get exasperated with myself - when will the reality of the truth fully sink in!

Just because they canceled the training program doesn’t mean that its Not policy still.
Indeed. Who cooked this up?
I understand where you are coming from but does God want us to go and clean up these radicals by being radical ourselves?
Dear Leader is one minute humiliating and the next minute brainwashing the military in the hope that someday, when ordered to, they will kill American citizens. He’ll be as successful at managing our war machine as he has been in managing foreign policy, the economy, healthcare, etc., etc.
Yes, I also would like to see official DoD orders to stop persecuting Christians
Depends what you call radical - I think just different and separate not using their schemes and lack of ethics but rather standing out as being Christian and being happy about it!
I told a civilian I work with about this. he just shrugged and said, “it’s just what the government does”. He gave me a really funny look when I asked him what one cow said to another while standing in line. “It’s just what the slaughterhouse does”.
Finally some good news
