Isnâ€™t Jesus quoted in the Bible as saying that a man should pray in his closet, and not in the street? Iâ€™m no Christian, but it looks like the Evangelicals refuse to follow even the most plain instructions that their prophet gave according to their own religious text.

Jesus+Hitler
1. Matth. 5:37.
2. Lukas 19:27.
3. Mark 16:16.
4. Matth. 5:17-19.
5. John 15:5-6.
6. Deut.19:1.

		<description>The military definately looked down upon those of us who did not want a specified religion stamped upon our dogtags.   I was 17 years old when I joined the Army in 1974, and was pressured into stating a religious preference.   I chose Roman Catholic,  which was the religion of brainwashing I was indoctrinated to.
I would have prefered &quot;no preference&quot;.
The military should be happy to have any person willing to sacrifice themself for this country so the chilren of our corrupt officials don&#039;t have to serve (i.e. George Bush, Dick Cheney).   Religeous freeom, or rather, freedom from religion, should prevail.   Thank you,   Maureen Gilbert</description>

		<description>Having served 8 years active duty and 2 of those as an NCO to say that the US Army Disciminates is insane.  The US Army has no view on religous beliefs.  That is not to say that there are no commanders or individiuals in authority who may abuse their power in emphasing their own belief, be they Christian, physical conditioning, or the wearing or a Blue Beret.  These are isolated incidents and not US Army policy.

When it comes to individuals, if there is an individual within a group and he doesn&#039;t drink and doesn&#039;t condon it while the others do drink, yes he will be shunned and ridiculed for as individuals we all the the free will to choose who we associate with.  So a group of christian men would shun the athesist, other men not may not be the outward christians and just reject the atheisists views.  When there are differing opions or philsophys those people will not come together in friendship and assosiciation.  I strongly oppose unions, is it a surprise I have no union friends and union men don&#039;t want me as one.  ITS TIME TO GET REAL.</description>
