Atheist Leader Complains About U.S. Troops Praying Together Before Combat Mission | CNSnews.com
The gent who is now pressing for Atheist chaplains is now opportunistically pressing for ousting prayer before military convoys in combat zones. This an abuse of military rank and influence.
What think you?
Praying, in addition to Precombat checks and Precombat inspections is not a disregard of other pertinent preparation, it's simply praying also. If the convoy brief and other checks and inspections did not happen then the convoy commander would be at fault... praying before or during a convoy brief is not disregard of other preparations. This is an intellectual failure if i've seen one, a clear abuse of an officers influence and rank.
Luckily the military doesn't change that often and this isn't going to make lasting waves.
No soldier not even PV1 Snuffy is going to be forced to pray or even bow their head against their will, that is a IG complaint waiting to happen. Officers do not have that kind of authority and no one in the military can order anyone to do anything that violates their constitutional rights and is not a part of their duty as a soldier.
Filthy, selfish agenda.
