They don't have to read it. Ahh, but the Truth is a scary thing. This is why cockroaches hide in the darkness.

American PWs in Japanese PW camps used their bible for rolling cigarettes, other religious brochures were useful in the latrine, because there was never enough toilet paper

To an Atheist it is just a book. So, what's the problem?

Atheist's are allowed to hand out anything (within good taste) to the troops as well. Get over it and move on.

Is it me or have groups like the ACLU, separation of church and state and freedom from religion. Have gone out of there way to make Christianity s crime. They send there minions to hunt town crosses on public land. And threaten to take schools to court for having a post of the 10 commandments.
Not to mention to remove 10 commandments monuments. Atheism has become a religion to them.

It's not a question of stopping bible handouts, it's a question of stopping proselytizing of all religions, I'm pretty sure you'd object if the Koran were to be distributed, or literature of satanists. Equality for all means not allowing others special preferences.

I'm not against people handing out literature. It's a free country. I believe common sense will weed out everything but the truth as long as truth has a voice. Truth will always have a voice.

Atheist have the right to hand out what ever they profess too, I hope its a bottle of rum, which I will gladly take and slowly, and fondly appreciate in fact I am willing to share it with others.

I like beer too, but with a brain injury alcohol gives me a bad two day headache I can only drink one beer or have one mix drink, so I have wonder about natures cure.

Come to Salvation before you reach the Great White Throne, the Judgment Seat of Christ is where you want to be. Every Knee shall bow to God after you leave this earth, make fun of or disbelieve it, and think Christianity is foolishness you have been warned choose. Remember the verse of the rich man and the beggar, where he could not warn his brothers as he looked up from hell, to the bosom of Abraham, for just a drop of water on his tongue. Accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior Today.

If you don't want one, don't take one. I was never pressured to ever take a bible, when I was in. I'm Catholic. I attended mass on Post, still never forced to take a bible.

I think this story is blown out of proportion, as most articles are these days.
