US Army Ivestigates Christian Servicemen for Their Faith

Separation of church and state or separation of man and faith? Freedom of religion has been brutally violated in American military. This is intolerable “probing” into the faith of Christian believers in the US Army, whose “ethics violation” is that they are believers in Jesus Christ and share their faith without remorse. While there is no problem accepting homosexuals in the army it is evidently morally reprehensible conduct to be a follower of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Read the report here in San Francisco online newspaper. Read more about this “serious investigation” here, another San Franciscan newspaper.

Boo! People in uniform said that they favor an evangelical Christian organization! We must deal away with this unethical and immoral behavior in the army! How can you believe in Christ and share your faith with other members of the military!? You leave your faith at the gate of the barracks, before you enter!

This is a true separation of “church and state”. An army officer is supposed to say good things only about gays, lesbians, feminists, atheists, Wiccans, and Islamic fundamentalists. Is there anything more horrible than having a Christian say that they are such in the military?! Let’s have the homosexuals and the feminists and the PETA animal lovers/terrorists define our defense strategy and military moral codes. (Note: Not exactly PETA but a smilar radical "animal rights" organziation.)

Sarcasm aside—it is a sad day for the US and its Army when the nation known as the bulwark of freedom of religion, and mainly so because of its Christian roots, begins to persecute Christians for their expression of faith.

A Welcome Message

This site has some links, news, and comments regarding freedom of conscience, freedom of religion and freedom of speech. These are all inter-related. My concern is especially with the violation of Christian freedom to speak about the collapsed morality of this world and its inability to uphold what is right, true, honorable and godly. This is not an evangelistic site per se, I do not discuss the ultimate goal of one's life - to find salvation and relationship with God in Jesus Christ. It is rather a place to get a perspective on the clash of religious views, and civilizational values in today's world. The Bible is clear in its teaching that followers of Christ will be persecuted for his name's sake (Matthew 5, Jonn 15, 1 Timothy 2), and I am not trying to change that. However, it is worthwile pointing it out, so that people who love the truth can find out more about it, and make up their own minds.

A word on "anonymous" web sites: some withhold their names for safety, some for not wanting to be responsible for their postings, others for not wanting attention drawn to their personality and wanting to avoid the vanity of attention. It's up to you to make your call why my profile in this blog is stripped down to the bare minimum.
