Group Claims Military Needs Atheist Chaplains
The president of American Atheists David Silverman says the U.S. military needs atheist chaplains.
Silverman acknowledges the claim may sound contradictory, but he insists atheist troops need chaplains they can turn to for counseling and moral support.
Silverman was raised Jewish but said he decided God did not exist at a young age.
Atheist groups have been pushing for the appointment of one of their own to the ranks of the chaplaincy. They hope to give voice to what they say is a large, and largely underground, population of non-believers in the military.
Atheists hope to be recognized officially by the military, which would mean they could raise money and meet on military bases, distribute literature, and advertise their events.
Francis Bacon...
“I had rather believe all the fables in the Legend, and the Talmud, and the Alcoran, than that this universal frame is without a mind. And therefore, God never wrought miracle, to convince atheism, because his ordinary works convince it. It is true, that a little philosophy inclineth man’s mind to atheism; but depth in philosophy bringeth men’s minds about to religion.”
And this very same cracker invented the Scientific Method. What a Christofascist lout!
“They that deny a God destroy man’s nobility; for certainly man is of kin to the beasts in his body; and, if he be not of kin to God by his spirit, he is a base and ignoble creature.”
Seems like the beasts want to form a 'church'. Someone throw those dogs a bone.
