Wonder if the "woke" crowd understands a screening for less than full acceptance of homosexuals would eliminate all devout Muslims from the services?

We can always count on you to think outside of the box, Steve. That's a great thought.

MAJ Dale E. Wilson, Ph.D. Very good article, glad the General champions the cause of protecting religious or personal beliefs opposed to homosexuality and alt-gender agendas.
But will it happen? Persecution against Christian values always exits in an amoral or immoral society.

The vast majority of the Christian community has been taught to love the sinner (Love one another) but hate the sin as Christ taught and demonstrated throughout his ministry. They are also taught not to fellowship with the unbeliever which can create social friction outside of the workplace if that were to be practiced by Christians as a whole. This is a good article demonstrating the attitude of the Armys' position toward embracing diversity which is valuing the person for what they can and do contribute, but not requiring anyone to embrace actions or beliefs contrary to their own.

Capt Gregory Prickett - Yeah.. I'm completely UNDER-whelmed by Jeremy Myers diatribe. I wonder if he can follow his own advice when someone's sin is disapproving of Mr. Myers. If he can he is a rare member of the social warfare justice army who fuels themselves on rage.

Maj John Bell - If you want to follow the cherry-picked Mahatma Gandhi quote, OK, but you should probably look at the entire context of what he said: “Hate the sin and not the sinner is a precept which though easy enough to understand is rarely practiced, and that is why the poison of hatred spreads in the world.” Autobiography, 1929.

Capt Gregory Prickett - I can't figure out what you think my perspective is. As I have told you on multiple occasions, If I can only justify a government law or regulation on Biblical Precepts, I have no right to expect the government to take my side of the issue. But we're not talking about laws. We're talking about beliefs

But let me pose a hypothetical, how should I feel about the sexual behavior of a pedophile who dallies with minors who have not reached the age of sexual consent? It certainly seems to me that you are arguing that it is wrong for me to hate the conduct. I doubt that is true, but what are you advocating is appropriate?
