10 Ways the U.S. Military Has Shoved Christianity Down Muslims' Throats
10 Ways the U.S. Military Has Shoved Christianity Down Muslims' Throats

The Military Religious Freedom Foundation was founded in 2005 by Mikey Weinstein, a U.S. Air Force Academy graduate and Reagan administration White House counsel, after the harassment his own sons faced as Jewish cadets at the academy led him to discover that the fundamentalist Christian takeover of the Air Force Academy was far from an isolated problem.

It was a militarywide issue that needed to be confronted head on. But it quickly became apparent that MRFF's initial mission of protecting the rights of our men and women in uniform was only addressing part of the problem.

The evangelizing and proselytizing of Iraqi and Afghan Muslims by private religious organizations and U.S. military personnel also had to be exposed and stopped -- particularly the materials and media available via the Internet and television that could be used by Islamic extremists as propaganda for recruiting purposes....

Top Ten Ways to Convince the Muslims We're On a Crusade

10. Have top U.S. military officers, Defense Department officials and politicians say we're in a religious war.

9. Have top U.S. military officers appear in a video showing just how Christian the Pentagon is.

8. Plant crosses in Muslim lands and make sure they're big enough to be visible from really far away.

7. Paint crosses and Christian messages on military vehicles and drive them through Iraq.

"Religious controversies are always productive of more acrimony and irreconcilable hatreds than those which spring from any other cause.

Re: 10 Ways the U.S. Military Has Shoved Christianity Down Muslims' Throats
Let me add to that,

I find it utterly discusting to read how not only the US invaded two sovereign countries,
based on LIES and falsefied evidence of non-existing WMDs
what I find even more apoling is that they commited such horrific warcrimes there, torture people and kill whatever comes in sight
but this makes it even more discusting: now they even use religion to justify their illegal wars! That makes it obviously a very easy mission to convince the religious masses of the extreme right of their just cause. And some dumbass hardly educated soldiers with the same religious backgrounds may even fall for such crap.
But it just shows the total disrespect of the American governments of teh last 9 years for muslims whatsoever.

To commit a new crusade, after so many hundreds of years, is in fact a crime against humanity. And the US government, the US army and the US soldiers who commit these crimes should all be prosecuted for this and held accountable!

wars for oil is absolutely unacceptable and criminal
wars for religion is even worse! It is barbaric and savage and inhuman!

This will certainly NOT bring 'democracy to the poor Iraqi's and Afghani's' but will set up a rage and an anger towards the USA and the west in general that is unstoppable and beyond anything the US can controle or imagine. And I say this ONLY as an analysis of teh situation.
But thes epeople, all thes emillions of people will want revenge because the US did not only invade, murder, torture, steal, rob and rape, but also tries to eliminate an entire culture and that surely is unforgiveable!

Uhm how come the response by religious fundamentalists generally is butbutbut he isn't Muslims/Christian/Buddist no matter what they claim!!!

The problem with this argument is that for example a moderate Muslim can claim just as well that the people who flew planes into the twin towers or the people who destroyed the US embassy in were not Muslim either. Which according to your logic would mean that there is in a lot of ways nothing to fear of Islam (which most people arguing in such a way will strongly disagree with).

It's difficult to justify military spending without a credible threat. Jews have given the US military a purpose for their existence by declaring war on a couple billion Muslims. One mistake is cured by a yet larger mistake.

Yeah, I'm a very fast reader.

It isn't just muslims' throats they're shoving religion down, it's also the people in the military. Sure, they aren't being overtly christian anymore, but it's still monotheistic as fuck.

Every official ceremony opens with an invocation by a chaplain, which calls upon God for a blessing. Spirituality is heavily encouraged by the DoD and Air Force. Everything in the military is centered around religion.

'In god we trust' first appeared on coins in 1864. 'One nation under god' first came on the scene in 1954.

Furthermore, the United States may have had some Judeo-Christian beliefs, but the founding fathers themselves agreed that America was not a Christian nation.

Re: 10 Ways the U.S. Military Has Shoved Christianity Down Muslims' Throats
The Truth is American 'Christianity', in all its forms, especially the 'tradition of men' shoved down peoples throats by the U.S. Military, is a fraud. The Truth is all manmade institutions of religion, and the 'precepts of men', are a fraud as well. True religion is summed up in the 2 commandments given by Christ in the New Testament, but few honor them. The Truth is, 'This people honors me (Jesus the Christ) with their lips, but their heart is far from me; in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the precepts of men. You leave the commandment of God, and hold fast the tradition of men.' Look around. What do you see and hear? The hypocracy of the hypocrites!

10 Ways the U.S. Military Has Shoved Christianity Down Muslims' Throats

The Military Religious Freedom Foundation was founded in 2005 by Mikey Weinstein, a U.S. Air Force Academy graduate and Reagan administration White House counsel, after the harassment his own sons faced as Jewish cadets at the academy led him to discover that the fundamentalist Christian takeover of the Air Force Academy was far from an isolated problem.

It was a militarywide issue that needed to be confronted head on. But it quickly became apparent that MRFF's initial mission of protecting the rights of our men and women in uniform was only addressing part of the problem.

The evangelizing and proselytizing of Iraqi and Afghan Muslims by private religious organizations and U.S. military personnel also had to be exposed and stopped -- particularly the materials and media available via the Internet and television that could be used by Islamic extremists as propaganda for recruiting purposes....

Top Ten Ways to Convince the Muslims We're On a Crusade

10. Have top U.S. military officers, Defense Department officials and politicians say we're in a religious war.

9. Have top U.S. military officers appear in a video showing just how Christian the Pentagon is.

8. Plant crosses in Muslim lands and make sure they're big enough to be visible from really far away.

7. Paint crosses and Christian messages on military vehicles and drive them through Iraq.

Full article here, including pictures and videos:

[link to www.alternet.org]



Lets see if I got this right, you are complaining about Muslims having Christainity pushed down their throats.
Isn't it convient what you did not list in your top 10.
Let's look at them shall we...............................









That pretty much ices the fact that your monkey faced bogus god fugger is totally powerless and worthless.

Your shit bag god stands idly by with his thumb us his ass, while his mindless sheeple followers are killed.

Course that's to be expected as your hump back god fugger never does a fuking thing about anything.

You fools worship a a useless slop bucket turd head god.
