Obama’s persecution of Christians in the military just gained validation as the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces rejected Lance Corporal Monifa Sterling religious freedom case. In a 4-1 ruling that stated that, “We reject the argument that every interference with a religiously motivated act constitutes a substantial burden on the exercise of religion”, Sterling’s case will now go before the Supreme Court.
Lance Corporal Monifa Sterling was court-martialed, at Camp Lejune, in North Carolina, because she refused to remove a Bible verse from her computer desktop.
She refused to capitulate to the demands to give up her religious freedom, when she stood her ground and would not remove the verse that reads, “No weapon formed against me shall prosper.”
The Marine Corp felt this verse must be deleted as it “could easily be seen as contrary to good order and discipline”. The U.S. military was founded by men who fought for the right to worship God, pray and read the Bible. General George Washington prayed for his troops and yet we have a Commander-in-Chief who actively supports the suppression of religious freedom.
The charges that will forever tarnish her record are that of ‘bad conduct and dishonorable discharge.” Yet Sterling, who stood her ground for her faith, refusing the remove, “No weapon formed against me shall prosper”, has a stronger advocate in her corner, based on the Truth of this verse.
The rest of the court ruling can be found on the next page.
This is bull. You don’t give up!
The military is very diverse. Religion is about a community of people who have some type of common affinity. For instance the misunderstanding between the Protestants and Catholics still didn’t find a common ground. Openly practicing a religion is best for civilians. The conviviality among the troops in the military is very important for a positive cohesion and safety. Getting religion out of the military is the best decision.
This so wrong.
If she wanted to wear a head scarf as a muslim she would be hero.
This goes back to obama leader of the military. He know whats going on and is pandering to the mussys destroying this girls life with a dishonerable discharge. Hillary will do the same. Vote Trump!
You’re an idiot.
Stay in your bubble. You will learn more.
Ugh. Once again. This is all utter b******t. This$#%&!@*was already up on a list of charges from disobeying a direct order to unauthorized absence to not being at an appointed place of duty. Chose a courts martial over NJP against her lawyers advice and posted all her “religious quotes” on a shared desk, after the fact, in violation of standing orders.
This worthless sack of$#%&!@*shouldn’t have been wearing my uniform in the first place.
It’s all there in the transcripts of her courts martial, which is public record. $#%&!@*her.
