Atheist soldier sues Army for 'unconstitutional' discrimination

[Sister Fracas 5]

i never saw anything either where someone was forced to attend any religious ceremony. but it's more fun to be outraged over some allegation involving the military for some.

Is the military so pristine and free of chopf*cks? Seems to me there are nitwits wherever you go, so why wouldn't the military have 'em as well? Why do you assume it couldn't happen?

join and find out

ahhh, evading the question... good one.

evading service, even better

well since you are going to "go there", the service wouldn't have taken me because of a medical condition. I can't drive a car, so chances are I can't drive a tank in wartime, or handle a weapon, or etc, etc.... ya dig?

It's up to him to prove he was discriminated against....Not the military or others to prove he wasn't.

agreed

Because anything outside his experience simply 'doesn't happen'?

i've got more time farting in a combat zone than you have in service, so if my experience does not count, i suppose yours is worth even less

Reading comprehension really isn't your forte is it?

Sounds to me like you fart too much.

why do you think everyone believes there is lotsa gas in the middle east?

"Our Pentagon, our Pentacostalgon, is refusing to realize that when you put the uniform on, there's only one religious faith: patriotism," Weinstein said.

Well if this just isn't the silliest quote I've ever read.

Sheesh. Patriotism isn't a religious faith. Weinstein needs a dictionary.

I wouldn't blame these people at all. They were raised to accept things without question. And, they have little education to give them the strength to believe in themselves and their own beliefs. I admire Mr. Almaty, and the other soldiers who stand out and take charge of their life, and not let others run it for them.

With that viewpoint being considered, it is quite amazing how most people would plainly accept the position of others without taking a step back and looking at the points being objected.
