Obama Refusing To Let US Military Pray For Absurd Reason According to recent reports, the Pentagon has released a statement that confirms that soldiers could be prosecuted for promoting their faith. The statement follows a meeting between Pentagon appointees and Mikey Weinstein, head of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, in a collaborative effort to develop court-martial procedures that would prevent Christians in the military from expressing their faith. According to their statement: Religious proselytization is not permitted within the Department of DefenseCourt martials and non-judicial punishments are decided on a case-by-case basis. Being convicted in a court martial means that a soldier is being charged with breaking federal military law. Punishment can include imprisonment or being dishonorably discharged. Essentially, the Administration just made it a crime, punishable by imprisonment, for those in uniform fighting for our country to share their faith. The FRC has launched a petition which has already collected over 400,000 signatures, to stop the government from working with Weinstein.
