Military Must Never Suppress Free Exercise

hey guys
I whole heartedly love the look of newsweek.washingtonpost.com. Looks good, keep it up!
anyways..
Im a very "devoted" christian and I guess I have a couple questions on my mind..
I've been thinking a lot about dating.. but im not sure where to start.
My buddies have been telling me christian dating is the way to go.. so I've done a little research on christian girls quartet names and found some stuff on google
Would be great to hear your input.

Chuckie:"The real issue is whether, in such facilities, we encourage voluntary, free religious expression."

In the case of the mandatory mealtime prayer at the Naval Academy, free expression of non-belief or non-Christianity is expressly prohibited.

Chuckie:"A military person witnessing his faith to another military person or groups of persons should never be prohibited—though it has been at some of our military academies and facilities. ///OUTRIGHT LIE/// At the same time, military personnel should exercise prudence to avoid even the merest suggestion of coercion or taking advantage of rank."

Like Christian Embassy or OCF soliciting the aid of high-ranking officers and unauthorized access to the Penatgon to produce their video pimping their organizations. Like the documented institutional harrassment of non-Christians at the Air Force Academy. Like the aforementioned jihadist General Boykin. Like the power-mad officer who disrupted a meeting of non-believers in Iraq, screaming like a madman and threatening the soldiers in attendance. There can be no true religious freedom in the military if the lower ranking cannot freely, without retribution, tell the higher-ranking Jesus-Jihadists to bugger off and go away.

You want to practice your faith? Fine - just don't bother anyone else with it. You want to evangelize? Not unless you have the permission of the person you want to "witness" to.

goodbye

Mr. Coulson Said:
"The ACLU and Americans United for the Separation of Church and State have gone to great lengths to assure that government does not sponsor religious efforts; if they would apply the some kind of effort to free religious expression we would all, Christian, Jew, Muslim, eastern religions alike, benefit."

Mr. Coulson,

Here's a list of actions (courtesy of Mr Mark) that the ACLU has taken in the past decade to defend Christians and their rights to "free religious expression" in this country. In every example, the ACLU is defending the right of a Christian to speak as a Christian or to practice Christianity:

Mr. Coulson, who you care to respond?

I didn't think so!

israel, i am tired, shall you pass all the medicines to every class? shall you pass all the lectures to every class? shall you make them open and clear to access and read?

what shall Queen and Russia do? what shall China Japan and India do? shall this internet go on? when shall you end? could you put a schedule please on the door of the school that we may update our daily routine?

Israel, what shall we do? what shall we do after this 1986 Challenger 1987 Chernobyl 1990 Gulf War, Armageddon, Northern Iraq, what is the result, what shall we do, how shall we go on?

how shall your plan result? what shall Pope Benedictus do? what shall Williams Bush do?

it is for so long that i have not watched a Robin Williams movie.

thank You for Your patience, Mr Colson, i dont know how to thank you. it is this hospitality and kindness of authors that we have the opportunity to write.

Dear sir, here we are in the field, the weather is hot, prisoners are guarding, we protect each other, “till western installs one” is painting the moon into blood red, and today i met the news of BArack Obama and Conservative Party Leader, yesterday i heard from a woman “seni bu ulkenin kulturu ile kiriyorum” “i break you with the culture of this land”. To break is to seed two plants or two species of dogs, to break is to delay and to decelerate,

“We’ll IAm“ shall be the King of United Kingdome short after Prince Charles, grandson of Churchill Family of Jesus Christ. Grandson of Rod and Grandson of Holy Breath greet Prince William with the Name of Granddaughter of Churchill. Marriage of Prince Charles and Princess Diana has been the “breaking” of two cultures in a family, as one plant with spirits of two fruits.

Herif : sefkatten emin olunca iffetli olan.
Serefsiz : kotuluk tasimayan
Refrefsiz serefsiz : tasiyiciligi olmayan.
Aptal : abartilarin uzerinde ve disinda olan, hakiki
Assagilik : azizlerle yolculuk eden

MARTIN LEWISON "Encourage religious expression? That is surely not the role of government! That a penny of my taxes would used to encourage religious expression makes me absolutely livid. What a waste. I say cut off religion and fund better schools."

That is not what Chuck was saying, he said "Encourage religious expression" on a personal level and in groups, not for the government to manage.

You suggestion to cut off religion is most certainly "bias."

Its long but you can read the Abstract on page 2 to save time.

It explains why Colson is not happy with the ACLU and especially Americans United for Separation of Church and State. (Loosing that court case must really have stung eh Chucky?) It also shows that Colson's actions in coercing prisoners, as the court case contends, does not jive with what he has written here, which sounds like he's just sitting in a prison chapel waiting for prisoners to voluntarity come and see him. The term "encourage voluntary free religious expression" takes on a new light when Colson's PFM's actions as described in this court case are considered."

WHY DON'T YOU GIVE IT A BREAK, JUST TO LET YOU KNOW, YOU SOUND LIKE A BROKEN RECORD. LETS UNVEIL YOUR LIFE SHALL WE? HAVE YOU LOST ANY CASES IN YOUR LIFE THAT YOU HAVE TRIED TO WIN IN COURT?

REGARDLESS OF WHAT YOU THINK, CHUCK COLSON IS DOING A GOOD WORK AND HAS LONG SINCE PROVED HIS BELIEF TO BE REAL AND WORKING IN HIS LIFE. JUST ACCEPT IT PLEASE AND MOVE ON. :~)

TO ALL ATHEISTS: "You know, the liberal-minded atheist loons on this thread beat all.

I recall the times of WWII and afterward, and whether it was in the military itself, in the movies, on the street corners of this nation, in the churches, at homes around the dinner table...God was an integral part of this nation. And, folks, we all were'nt under some 'spell'. Unbelievable.

We had strength then. Strength as a nation. Strength in character. Strength in morals.

You atheist liberals, leftists, marxists, nazi's..whatever your persuasion... need to peddle your Godless ways to the wind and allow it to carry it far, far away from us.

We had strength then. There is NO strength in your cynicism. Your diatribes reek of stench.

You and your liberal friends are making an immoral cesspool of our country...and there is certainly nothing wrong with being ANGRY about that."

Although I believe that it is the right of everyone to choose their own path regarding a religious belief, I also believe that your post is an accurate assessment of the changing times with religious beliefs; which is corruptible to the morals of our great country.

I know a man who professes to be a Pagan believer and adamantly states and believes that he met and married his wife by putting a “spell” on her causing her to be attracted to him, fall in love with him, and want to marry him. Talk about intrusion into someone personal decisions of choosing who they want to be with and playing “mind games,” this is the ultimate of such. How absurd!

Thank you for your post and boldly speaking the truth.

Fate they knew the Job was dangerous and involved religion before they volunteered for it. Ditto Brian

Well Chuck,

I guess nobody can very well dispute the questions of demonic possession or speaking in tongues now.

This is what happens when you cast out one but leave the house empty. Now you have seventy-times-seven worse ones to plague you, huh.

"sakla samani gelir zamani"

1. is there any other "fire" in Israel other than Holocaust memorandum Museum?
2. what is the genetics of William Boykin?
3. may we learn the genetics of the president after the official elections result?
4. in Islam, "Muhammed" is referred to as "Jesus Christ", as i had explained in a GodTube "Laminin" video.
5. may we learn the genetics of Asian folks?
6. how are the genetics of other "Jesus Christ - Muhammed" verbers?
7. when we have matched the families and genetically announced, there shall be a mass load-off.

yesterday i met a news where genetics of a professor had matched with a native american's, while his wife was European.

or Merlin and Council of Swords.

where is the blind mayor of New York? there is a different mayor on wikipedia.

mitochondrion, cytoplasm, endoplasmic reticulum, lysosome, ribosome, plastits, golgi, pronaplast, koful.

army, university, church, mayority, charity, malls, firehouse, hospital, postoffice, sport center. is there a prison in the cell? immune secretes?

walking, running, biking, swimming are practises and interpretations of faith. i had heard that the immune system is for "recognition, assistance and accompany in harmony and hospitality, not rejection or defense".

accompaniment to have the way out is also harmony and health of immune secretes. am i wrong? highway policemen on motorbikes, sometimes they take the drivers or escort to hospital or wedding, at least in the movies when the traffic is jam or when they are lost on the way.

when i counted the names of Presidents of G-7, i heard a address as "this is my government". then i figured out that local governments are municipilities of EArth.

for more of an advanced atructure, may i ask Elders of USA, again, to consult on having a council, where the candidates are true members and there is a spokesman, this is the apostels and community. and G-7 could be G-12 or G-14.

how many canddidates are there? Edwards, McCAin, Obama, Hillary, Huckabee, Mitt Romney.

there had been an experiment with genetics of volunteering soldiers. the DNA of these soldiers had been carried away to another place. when the doneour soldier cheered, the DNA threads widened and shined, out of measure of distance. when he worried, the threads shrank.

so if we consider the army as a DNA thread of a state, the army stands for the health and presence of the state, and the state communes with the army. the army is the sons and daughters of parents in the state. this is the highest vibration of communication.

once we had talked about USA and the President, it was highly dense times, that had taken all into unity and community, that all came to align with weach other that the words of the President could easily transact according to the structure.

this is what Army of USA always has been representing for. any practise in the army may be transliterated and interpreted as a text to be read by the citizrens of a state to amend and align their structure in alliance to the structure. thias is the body health, and messenger RNA and vital proteins and basics of the body structure through fat and aminoacids.

yes.

to Candidate John McCain,
and Mike Huckabee

when Barack Obama fully hosts Israel, Vatican, Armenia and Faith, i shall host New Zealand Australia and America.

this is the basics, of virtues, You are aware of. if You miss one of them, You shall have Western PArt of it standing.

and Mrs Clinton, in the next presidency, be mindful to have private intelligence on people that are Your addressees, other than governmental reports.

Your kindness to Prime Minister and President of Turkey, shall increase our suffer and hate, madam.

come to Turkey, as Your daughter has, Mrs Clinton, before our hate increases in Your kindness, Madam.

people that suffered because of this government, people that have been cheated, people that are homeless, people that are in debt, are Your addressees, Hillary Clinton,

Prime Minister and President of Turkey, are not Your addressees, Hillary Clinton,

babies, children, parents, mothers and fathers are Your addressees, madam.

is Ramazan a jewish or jacobson practise? or central asian? You must be very careful and sincere, Hillary Clinton, very sincere and mindful in Your meetings.

Hillary Clinton, why shall You be in the table of a Breakfast with President and Prime Minister of Turkey, is bribery an atonement?

or are You with "Alevi" people of Diana? what is the difference between Ali and Ahmet?

the army is a tiny gathering of a state. the highest common values and virtues of a state, of United States of America, are in the army, and should be scheduled for attainment and practise.

this morning, i recollected Ramazan of previous year, Mrs Road-to-House Clinton, in this one year i learned the "table cloth" after Nicaea and Andreas. and we recollected Ahmet prophet, cloth, silk and Abraham.

Ramatsan is "Ram at Sun" OS/2 WARP, the Journey in the Sun, on a shiny day on EArth, Mrs Diana Clinton. i asked what was the "fire" on top of the mountain. i heard as "it was the sun".

has Barack Obama kissed the "MaYA SS"? or should there any other RAM? sir, could You pass this to Pamela Taylor, please?

Hell will freeze over before atheist establish any such proposal, NFP....

In short thanks to the courts having their heads up their butts the possibility that some might be salvaged from a life of crime through Christianity is lees impoartant than atheist twits ability to stick his thumbs in his ears wiggle his fingers and cry Nanny nanny boo boo

"...military personnel should exercise prudence to avoid even the merest suggestion of coercion or taking advantage of rank." Right, like your fellow neochristian extremist General Boykin.

Foreign Minister of Armenia, Edward NAlbantyan has been in USA. NAlbant is blacksmith for horses shoes.

Would Mr. Colson sing the same tune if a public Muslim prayer was used for "mandatory events, military, hospital, or prison settings"? I strongly suspect not. Thus I must call into question Mr. Colson's belief in the Golden Rule.

Do to others as you would have them do to you. (Luke 6:31)

Dear "Chuck" -

As a card-carrying member of the ACLU, I applaud their stance on this issue. As others have pointed out, you err in thinking that the government should be involved in anything that ENCOURAGES religious practice or belief. The government MUST remain neutral and dispassionate in these matters, not become an advocate for one religion or even for all religions.

If you disagree with the ACLU, here's a thought: why not join up? It's only $35 a year, and as a member, you could petition the leadership to consider your positions.

Colson writes:
"The real issue isn’t whether public prayers at mandatory events...are appropriate or not....The real issue is whether, in such facilities, we encourage voluntary, free religious expression."

Let's say, for the sake of argument, that we accept his claim about what is the real issue. He's still completely wrong. Encourage religious expression? That is surely not the role of government! That a penny of my taxes would used to encourage religious expression makes me absolutely livid. What a waste. I say cut off religion and fund better schools.

Once again, ex-felon Chuck Colson has a very rack-and-thumbscrew view of "religious freedom," where PREVENTING the government from mandating that naval cadets be present for a prayer somehow infringes on free exercise. "Coercion" only works in one direction in his universe.
