This is why I support The Military Religious Freedom Foundation. And The Freedom From Religion Foundation.

What would you have Obama do about it?

He can start by choosing someone else other than Rep. John McHugh to be the next Sec. of the Army. McHugh has a poor record for voting on church/state issues.

You really hate religion, don't you voyzo? I, myself, am not a very religious fellow - but it seems as if ones stance on religion in the most pressing issue to you.

You're really posting an Al Jazeera program on this subject?

You'd be right, at least concerning certain types of religion like the extremists you see in Christianity and Islam. The types that I fight against are the ones that dictate beyond the churches and mosques and into government. There are those in the U.S. that would love to turn this country into a theocracy, they're called restructionists and dominionists.

That doesn't mean it isn't true. Our mainstream news isn't really focused on the issue, although I've seen Jeremy Hall on a few programs. Hall is an atheist who says he was harassed and threatened while serving in the army.

And the program was balanced, with interviews of Scowcroft and Chaplain Richardson.
