OH, and having been allied with the US Army and Navy for at least 25 years of my life, it is well known that military members are ordered to volunteer in community projects or attend community events to show a spirit of appreciation and involvement with the local non-military.Learn to respect a person as a person, who has the right to their religious beliefs and the responsibility to respect others beliefs and offer/gain insight into each others beliefs.
How about if these reporters show us statistics on how many other religious organizations have offered their services. Can't fault Christians WILLING to provide services. Evangelism is a key point of Christianity. Amazed that Christians would turn away nons at a retreat, what a chance to convert non believers! The military is NOT a democracy and ALL Americans are taxpayers. I have attended services of at least 8 different religions , gained friends, insight and kept my faith intact.

Unfortunately we spend lot of our taxpayer money on stuff we don't like, for instance we spend millions on abortions. But there are hundreds of people watching this video who believe this is a good use of money. I'd prefer a $28 million church opposed to killing a baby whenever a couple fucks up, but I don't always get what I want.
I understand you, whenever an impregnated rape victim decides to take on an abortion I think the same thing. "Girl, you and your rapist fucked up, why should we, taxpayers, pay for your mistake?"
Ah, only special-case abortions may be done through public funding, and the example you gave is not one of them.
@majesticdragoon how did a rape victim "fuck up" by getting raped? So if I come by your house and rape your mom you will say "mom, you fucked up"? Jesus kid, do society a favor and chug that blue liquid under your sink

I don't believe in any gods. Want to make me a christian (or any other religion for that matter) prove that your god exists and I'll convert.
Since no one can prove that their god exists, I'll remain atheist
And because of that, the use of my tax payer dollar to fund religions that seem to me as nothing but scams, is personally offensive. If they want tax money they should prove that their specific god exists first.

When I pointed out to a christian lady who holds sway minister of sorts that they (govt) spent 28 mil for a church at a military base she thought that was a marvelous idea.

I was trying to get her to dialog about it but she deflected with usual nothings to great for the Lord approach. Hogwash.
lulz, and Jesus hath said "Thou shalt go into the army, and spend millions of dollars of other peoples money to worship me. Do not give it to the poor. Go, you warriors of Jesus, and kill as many people, harm as many human beings as you can. However do not harm the rich, for they are the blessed and the true saviors of mankind." Ironic irony is ironic.
They are both going to jail for insubordination and committing to insurrection against the union. As for you, I'm pretty sure there is something against the law about a Civil Service empolyee telling people they will conform.
As a vet I am giving you an order to give up their names and their platoon, they will go to jail for this crime.
Religious test and prayer are not allowed in military functions by law.
To U.S troops whom have different beliefs besides Christain Beliefs. You have EVERY RIGHT to NOT attend this stupid thing. This is against to the Constitution. You have basics rights to believe WHATEVER THE HELL YOU WANT. To beat them is to SAY NO! If these idiots refuse SCREW THEM.
@Saffroncreature They refuse, arrest them. They made the choice to be an enemy of the US by telling you that you will go to cult camp with them or they'll punish you for not.
@smokey86d Wow is all I can say to your response. I am a Christian and I am a very good person. I am far from being like Satan. You sound like a very judgemental person.
@MrHav1k I wasn't talking about literally sitting in a mosque. I was talking about having to sit quietly and not say anything. As in, forced into silence.
As an Army Civilian I had to attend monthly meetings of the Command. Basically everyone had to attend with the regular soldiers and officers and hear the unit updates and sit through the award cerimonies. Kind of like a manditory gradution cerimony, teacher parent meeting combined each month.
Christian prayer is manditory and the First Sergeant points at anyone not bowing their heads and points down.
I'm in the military (ARMY) and I'm Agnostic. What I hate most is when we all have to pray together... The Chaplain will talk to us for some reason and then he'll want to pray and we all will bow our heads or whatever, out of all the things in the military that were forced to do, this is probably my #1 thing I hate. Every time we do this I'm so pissed off because I'm being forced into a faith that I don't agree with.
We shouldn't spend a dime to build a church for any religion anywhere. Our nation is supposed to be neutral on the matter of church and state. If religious soldiers wish to practice their faith, they can find a church near their base to attend. If the Muslim didn't struggle to find a nearby mosque, how much trouble are the Christians going to have finding a nearby church?
Same with religious events. They should be paid for by the soldiers or private organizations, not taxpayers.
As a Christian, I'm happy for a church to be built for those who want to practice their faith. But do not use tax payer dollars. Separation of church and state was very important because I want no discrimination against my muslim, hindu, buddhist, agnostic and atheist friends.
The church is wealthy enough to build their own buildings. Let them do it. And let every other religious group build one too without persecution.
@dovespin1 Thank you. I know what's important to me must be equally important to others, even if it is no religion at all. If a person of a different faith, color, creed, sexuality or political point of view is as capable of love and generosity as I am, then why should they ever have to live with the fear of being persecuted?
@aquiace Tax free isn't good enough for some Christians, they want it to be paid with taxes now. This is what makes "militant atheist" out of normal non-believers.
@aquiace I wish there were more Christians like you :).... I'm not Christian but I find that many Christians have the completely opposite type of views as you. Thanks
@aquiace You're missing one there, you know it's older than christianity? It's called Wicca, even though we are pacifists, if someone were to come at my family unjustly then I would take up arms against them.
I spent 8 years in US Army and in spite of me being a hindu, I was forced to attend the catholic church mass on Sundays. I was in no way offended by it because my religion has taught me that god is universal no matter what shape or form. It did bother me that people who chose not to go, were assigned crap duties such as cleaning the barracks and bathrooms and the ones who did attend the mass got kool aid and munchkin/bagels.
BIBLE BIMS *(Blessed In My Servitude) Bible thumping Christian advocates are using their religion to take over our military so that they'll have mindless soldiers who would be willing to SHOOT NON CHRISTIAN CIVILIANS! Martial Law gets called by some loony president like Rick Perry, and our military could very well be called in to SHOOT US! Think about it!
I'm not sure who to contact. But I wanted to know who's in charge with coming up with show ideas. One of the teachers at the school where I work at died and we were planning on explaining to the children about her death. Someone told us about a book entitled "When Mommy Went To Heaven".....written by an author name, Evon Latrail. We read and like that book. Did you ever have a show on how to talk to kids about death? What about the troops? Sometimes they never come home to their kids.
Religious people are money making, power grabbing tools, that don't believe their own bull. Thy shall not kill.....except if some human tells you to, and a priest, or other "holy man" blesses you before you go out....... Primitive minds.
No money is going into the christianization of the military. Chaplains learn about and train to preach and discuss most forms of religion. The ones not supported, from scientology to satanism, are given plenty of space to practice their faith as they see fit. I was a marine and not once in my entire tour of duty was I EVER coerced or ordered to practice any faith at all. NEVER. The Young Turks are lying.
@nilbud I know the truth. You don't believe me because you are full of hate for something you don't understand. I urge you to read a book or even take it upon yourself to experience military life for yourself. It is almost certain that you will do niether, so all I can do is plead for you to see reason and stop listening to this radical left wing nonsense. Please, please, PLEASE open your mind and think for yourself. Don't let these brainwashers do it for you. That's all I have to say.
@hironeden Did you even listen to the statistics? I'm sure religious coercing varies. My brother is an RN in the military and they regularly pray to Jesus in a group after soldiers have been injured, as well as have a church on their base. Do they have a mosque? Do they have a synagogue? No, no they don't, because they're ignorant of beliefs other than their own. Lmfao.
@XoXoSakuraKissXoXo Of course I listened to the statistics. Like I said before. They're LYING. Praying to Jesus is a choice, not an order. And if you're worried about what places of worship there is and isn't, there's no church either. In truth, I don't even know what to call the building. Guess why. I never went to any service at all and nobody cared about that. I say again, I'VE BEEN THERE. You can't tell me what the life is like and expect me to take you seriously.
@hironeden Did I say that you did? And no, they're not. Google them. They've been cited by tons of sources. Taxpayer money is being used to build what they call themselves, "CHURCHES". The only reason that people are against this is because it's not equal when all Americans are paying for it. If they had a building that was labeled as a religious place where there were different services for different religions at different times, NO ONE WOULD CARE. People only care because it's one sided.
@XoXoSakuraKissXoXo Just because something is on Google doesn't mean you should heedlessly believe it. Those sources you're talking about are ALL lying. The government does not waste money on programs they can't make work. The MEDIA is calling them churches, not the feds. All religions are treated equally in the armed services. Once again, I'VE BEEN THERE. You can't tell me what the life is like and expect me to take you seriously.
@hironeden All sources ever are lying unless they agree with you. OMG, YOU HAVE SHOWN ME THE LIGHT. To date, the Fort Hood "mega-church" project has received over $28 million in earmark funding: $17,500,000 for its CHAPEL complex and religious education center, and an additional $10,800,000 for its Family Life Center.
And the government is currently spending so much on useless shit that we had to raise the debt ceiling, do you consider that "making it work"? :)
@XoXoSakuraKissXoXo It has nothing to do with who agrees with me. I deal in personal experience and nothing more. That Fort Hood "mega-church" project (seen it with my own eyes while on libo) is called a "religious center" in the military. The media is the only one who calls it a "mega-church". The debt crisis is a product of the war, not military religious buildings. Once again. I'VE BEEN THERE. You can't tell me what the life is like and expect me to take you seriously.
As far as Taxpayer dollars going towards Christianizing U.S. Troops, its completely wrong. That's what I orginal came here to say before I got caught up into the debate of a higher power, existing or not existing.
Why are Christians even supporters of the military? If they were what their name defines them to be, they'd be like Christ and would be fully against it. I mean, Christ was crucified by the greatest war empire of all time. Wtf?
You could do even more Christ-like things with $28 million like...gee, I don't know, helping the needy? Nah, they should just pick themselves up from the bootstraps and get a job.
@skippydeenice No, it's not relevant. The existence of God has nothing to do with how much money we're spending on funding churches. So stop with the shit. Additionally, I completely disagree with your argument. Some of our tax dollars SHOULD go toward funding religion in the military, as it boosts troop morale.
How about we stop funding science because certain people are creationists? I guess I'm strawmanning you though, right?
@PSNBloodraid None of our tax dollars should be WASTED with this nonsense. If you want to donate your hard earned money to pointless bullshit be my guest, but don't waste mine. You know what would really boost morale, not sending our soldiers to die in some sandy shit hole.
@skippydeenice You COMPLETELY missed the fucking point. Just because YOU don't believe in God doesn't mean no one believes in God. It boosts the morale of those who do believe in God to be able to go to church and get preached at. I'm not saying that they should go and spend as much money as they are, or saying they should force it, I'm simply saying it''s not wasting money to help fund religious events for the troops who happen to be religious.
The Christian concerts and the laser crosses are mandatory for the simple reason that you need to make sure thier are no vampires/demons in the military it's for your safety people get with the program ^_^
So apparently what they're doing is they will shut out anyone who isn't a Christian if they don't participate.....talk about accepting everyone for who they are...isn't that what the religion should represent, and for America everyone is suppose to be accepted no matter what religion they believe in? ...Greed and power brings corruption...we need to stop this.
Maybe we can get Pepsi and Pizza Hut to donate some of there products for the None Christians, and maybe even get a video game company to donate some games and devices ? I know that Nintendo has several hundred 3DS's and Wii's they used for E3 this year they can't resell start emailing these companies people....!
You dont HAVE to go (Sailor here). It is a choice, for the most part when it comes to these events. NOW I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but from my personal experience, no, was never MADE to go.
@simonhm2 Yeah, how's the job market up there? Because I agree, & if these idiots take the White House I'm heading your way. Might not wait for that, actually....
That guy is fucking ignorant. Fort Hood is FUCKING huge- and so a LOT of people attend churches... And you know what- having people have a piece of mind with their religion- so fucking be it- shut the fuck up- They only fight for your stupid ignorant asses! I am a PROUD Army wife- and cannot believe the audacity of some Americans. Build a church so soldiers can relax and just feel some sort of routine, family time... Until you're out there on the lines- SHUT THE FUCK UP!
Oh, and I remember being stalked by those people every day that they were there. They would track me down and never shut the fuck up. And the administration was like lolyou'reanatheist and loltheyhaverights.
There's a youtuber called AronRa, his daughter go's to a school where every morning all the kids have to touch an American flag pole and say the American pledge of allegiance.
How ironic, in the BIBLE it mentions something along the lines of money being the root of all evil... yet all I see here is money, money and MORE MONEY being used to advance CHRISTIAN indoctrination.
that same money spent building something that's not needed could have bought 2.8 million full meals we could have given to all the homeless or unemployed people we have today. wait, this is US military money. well that money could have bought 280 million new bullets to shoot innocent brown people with.
Imagine if the military spent 28 million in repairing/rebuilding the houses that are substandard living conditions for the families of soldiers who live here at Fort Hood.
You agree in principle with an all-encompassing government with the size and power to meddle in all areas, unlimited power to tax and spend, to right all wrongs... and then you're 'shocked and chagrined' when factions you don't like take it over and use it for their own purposes (their notions of 'right' and 'wrong'). The only way out is a 'truce': agree that governments' mandate is not unlimited.
@jordan567890 Who's making the argument that the government should have the power to meddle in all areas? nobody is. There are issues that govermnent should be exclusively in charge of, but others were it shouldn't be.
and this is exactly why i hate all religion.....im not bashing certain ones i hate religion equally..any form of it...people who are pushers need to stfu and go "tell the word of the lord" where there welcome...in there own form of THEIR house of god not on my side walk, not at my fairs and most defiantly not in my army -.- if your religious congrats for you but dont try pushing it off on people who dont want it STOP BEING FUCKHEADS!!!
So, that said, fuck the Army's bullshit line that it honors faith diversity. There were Jewish and other non-Christian soldiers on that bus. You want to show your faith? Disband the chaplain corps and let churches, mosques and synagogues volunteer non-uniformed clergy to deploy with soldiers.
so what? you can spend 28mil for body armour to safe lives on the battlefield using taxpayer money? But we can't spend 28mil to help soldiers find religion to save lives on the battlefield from suicide?
I went to basic at Leonard Wood. They had this Free Day Away bullshit, hosted by a local church. We were told that we didn't have to attend services if we didn't want to. I was a practicing Eastern Orthodox Christian at the time, and I had no interest in attending an evangelical/baptist service. When we all got onto the bus, the drill sergeant told us that we had to go to the service, and if we didn't want to, we could get the fuck off of the bus and pull a landscaping detail
I walked into a cathedral once. All I could think about was how many hungry children could have been fed with all that money that went into impressing an imaginary being.
"you support your community anyway you like... you don't do it with my dollars"
oh the irony.
btw, if the majority want to call it a Christian country: news flash: that makes it a Christian country - it's called democracy. Just like if the majority want to use my dollars for their circuses and bread - that's what happens.
@thirtyoneuniform Well I know your either a troll of massivly uninformed and ignorant. We, despite my anti war protesting, have been there next to America in all these pointless waste of lifes. Anyway enjoy you angry toll life. I have to go and live my real life, with people, joy and converstations where people use facts.
@thirtyoneuniform Correct spelling from the American? Also for future refrence I live in one of the many citys that wern't convict settlements. It was only our first few citys that were. You know. Like in America.
@Nexius8 well that's the difference between your little shit hole and decent nations like the united states: NONE of our cities were convict settlements. again, go hang out with someone who knows how the fuck to spell, fucking aussie retard.
@thirtyoneuniform You do realise both our countries were founded in order to be convict settlements right? I know you're a troll but your ignorance amuses me.
@Nexius8 uh, between what you think and what HISTORY HAS ALWAYS RECORDED, i think i'm gonna go with the known FACT that the united states declaration of independence and the united states constitution don't say one fucking thing about "convict settlements", insipid aussie jackass. see? that's another difference between your faggy ancestors and my human ones; america was founded by people who left europe of their own accord while your kind were banished for being assholes all the time... BITCH!
@Nexius8 You really need to study the history of America! Although thirtyoneuniform proved him/her self infantile with comments like: "your faggy ancestors and my human ones," and only an idiot would refer to the declaration of independence and the constitution to try and prove their argument, thirtyoneuniform is correct about people leaving Europe to settle in the New World.
@jharker37 I was refering to the one of the main reasons the English went to America. Obviously since the inderpenence there have been no convict settlments just as since our federation there have been no convict settlments. Most settlers in both countries were free however.
@Nexius8 There were NEVER any convict settlements in America! I'm an Australian, and even I know that! America was founded by free people, immigrants from Europe looking for a better life. Europeans were there to exploit the wealth. Again! There were NEVER any convict settlements in America!
Government enforcing religion upon military...upon ANYONE...goes against the freedom of religion amendment.

As an Army Civilian I had to attend monthly meetings of the Command. Basically everyone had to attend with the regular soldiers and officers and hear the unit updates and sit through the award cerimonies. Kind of like a manditory gradution cerimony, teacher parent meeting combined each month.
Christian prayer is manditory and the First Sergeant points at anyone not bowing their heads and points down.
Basically, "Bow your head now, civilian puke!"

Every time we do this I'm so pissed off because I'm being forced into a faith that I don't agree with.

We shouldn't spend a dime to build a church for any religion anywhere. Our nation is supposed to be neutral on the matter of church and state. If religious soldiers wish to practice their faith, they can find a church near their base to attend. If the Muslim didn't struggle to find a nearby mosque, how much trouble are the Christians going to have finding a nearby church?
Same with religious events. They should be paid for by the soldiers or private organizations, not taxpayers.

As a Christian, I'm happy for a church to be built for those who want to practice their faith. But do not use tax payer dollars. Separation of church and state was very important because I want no discrimination against my muslim, hindu, buddhist, agnostic and atheist friends.
The church is wealthy enough to build their own buildings. Let them do it. And let every other religious group build one too without persecution.

I spent 8 years in US Army and in spite of me being a hindu, I was forced to attend the catholic church mass on Sundays. I was in no way offended by it because my religion has taught me that god is universal no matter what shape or form. It did bother me that people who chose not to go, were assigned crap duties such as cleaning the barracks and bathrooms and the ones who did attend the mass got kool aid and munchkin/bagels.

@hironeden Did I say that you did? And no, they're not. Google them. They've been cited by tons of sources. Taxpayer money is being used to build what they call themselves, "CHURCHES".

If they had a building that was labeled as a religious place where there were different services for different religions at different times, NO ONE WOULD CARE. People only care because it's one sided.
