Radical Atheist Who Trashed Billy Graham after His Death Is Set to Become a Navy “Chaplain”

Radical atheist Jason Heap is hoping to become a Navy chaplain.

The US Navy is seriously considering the approval of this anti-Christian activist for a spot in its Chaplain Corps.

In February Heap retweeted a post by radical secularist group trashing Rev. Billy Graham after his death.

...

Within a week of re-assigning (and possibly firing) one chaplain for expressing traditionalist Christian beliefs, the Navy is seriously considering the approval of an avowed “non-theistic humanist” for a spot in its Chaplain Corps.

Conservative U.S. House and Senate members are formally urging the Navy not to approve the atheist for the post, noting the Navy can provide all sorts of other programs for non-believers without altering the mission of the long-established Chaplain Corps.

The secular-humanist applicant is Dr. Jason Heap – described by ConservativeHQ.com as a “militant atheist” – the executive director of the United Coalition of Reason who had sued the Navy in 2014 when it rejected his earlier application to become a Navy chaplain.

That suit ended with a non-public settlement, but Heap is back at it again.

...

Now the decision goes to the Navy Chief of Chaplains, Rear Admiral Margaret Kibben, who is retiring soon.

If she agrees, then the final decision rests with Chief of Naval Personnel – Vice Admiral Robert P. Burke.

The hubris of the Navy—how many times in its history has the US Navy been under God's divine protection? If I were in the Navy, I'd tremble at the thought of disrespecting God.

This is a man of God, Father Joseph O'Callahan. He isn't some pussified piece of crap Social Justice Warrior whose goal it is to diminish, humiliate, and destroy the military.

There is not a day that goes by that I don't get angrier and angrier at what the Left is doing to our country. And the military goes right along with it. The Navy is among the worst, but they are running neck and neck with the Air Force to see who can spit in the face of God while destroying that. branch of the military.

An Atheist as a Chaplain. Damn, does this make me angry.

Sigh...All I can say is if President Trump read Free Republic ALL of this sh*t would be readily available for Him to see. It is rather inconceivable that He would allow this.

I have not been a particularly religious person for most of my life, and I am on a journey to find God.

But I know right from wrong, and good from evil. This man is not doing this to even contribute in any way towards helping others. He is doing this for purely political ends.

I am former Navy and my dad devoted his life to the Navy. This offends me in ways I can’t explain, and I have good reason to have a grudge against the military Chaplain service...but I don’t.

What is this person going to say to comfort a dying man in a time of war? What?

If he succeeds, this is the only time I’d tell a chaplain to go to hell. I don’t think false prophets should expect anything else.

Let’s all make pledges to forward this stuff to the President, military, and Congress men and women

Sitting around bitching about it isn’t enough. Let’s become street fighters like the other side. We can bloody their F noses if we want to
