I wouldn't say that, maybe make them watch "The Sound of Music" over and over again...

I think the chaplains should be forced to teach the Koran to the troops. That would put an end to proselytizing religion in a New York minute.

Holding an M-16 and a bible is no way to evangelize.

Holding a Koran, a scimitar and a severed head spread Islam throughout the Middle East and Africa.

People should be free to express their faith or lack thereof whatever their position, should chaplins "Not" profess their faith? No, they should, should spreading the word of Christ to non-military foreigners be their primary goal, no, their main goal is to support the troops and offer them faith and spiritial guidance. If they can share the gospel with ANYONE they should, but it should not be in an offical capacity.

I fail to understand in todays world why it is so wrong to simply be free to say "this is what I bleieve and why."
