Same changes coming to the Air Force, turbans, beards etc all in the name of religion.

so much for uniformity, discipline, and order.
doesn't this open the door though? for any knucklehead to not shave because of his religion?

we believe in God. that's what we were taught. are we to tell our soldiers that they must believe in our God in order to join the service?
that seems kinda like what isis is telling the Shiites, no?

i'm all too familiar with those two words
but that is a medical condition (for some of them)

seems pretty insane honestly, and illegal according to the constitution.
he didn't have to say it to enlist, but he has to say it to re-enlist? something is fishy here for sure.

How does an atheist get sworn in as a witness in court?
quote:
When you are called to give evidence you will be shown to the witness box and be asked to remain standing. Before giving evidence in court you will be asked if you wish to take an oath or make an affirmation that your evidence is true. The difference between an oath and an affirmation is that the oath is a religious commitment wheras an affirmation is non-religious.

seems pretty simple to me. this airforce reg is out of line with the constitution and should be struck down asap.
we're NOT a christian nation despite what ridiculous rhetoric the phil robersons of the world might spew

The hilarity will ensue when person why who say claimed Lutheran as his religion, suddenly decides to change his religion officially to another religion for the stated purpose of getting his beard on.

yep. that's what i'm saying. you're opening the door for people not following the rules because of their "religion". if you don't like the rules, don't join. period. but we have brass at the top that are afraid to offend people.
