Texas Republican Gets Demolished By Veterans For Trying To Force Christianity Upon Military

[TexasTowelie]

Veterans are calling out Texas GOP Rep. Sam Johnson for his effort to force members of the US Armed Forces to take an oath to God, and they wiped the floor with him.

In response to the Air Force Academy allowing cadets to omit “so help me God” from the oath, Johnson introduced the Preserve and Protect God in Military Oaths Act of 2015 to force God and Christianity upon our soldiers.

But Johnson’s bill has only pissed off veterans and the backlash against him has been swift and harsh as the House Republican has been absolutely trashed.

One veteran, Todd Celtrick, wrote a devastating comment on Johnson’s website condemning the bill and suggested expanding it to include all gods.

“I for one (as another vet) actually love this idea. We could have everyone at the end shout out what god or gods they are swearing to I.E. the Christians could say ‘so help me God’. But then the Muslims could yell ‘so help me Allah’ and the pagans could shout something like “‘so help me Thor’ or ‘Odin!’ Hell, we should let them go through the whole damn list while they are at it. Oh and the Satanists, can’t forget them! I guess they would yell ‘so help me Satan’, but yeah… religion! Oh and speaking of, every time someone wants the ten commandments posted on public grounds, we should have the Wiccan three fold law right next to it! This makes it all so simple, don’t you see!?”

3. I like what Mikey Weinstein of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation wrote:

“The astounding ignorance and bigotry displayed by his brazen presentation of this proposed wretched sectarian legislation is literally mind-ripping. Not only does it viciously savage United States constitutional religious protections afforded all American citizens, including members of the U.S. military, it also provides an unparalleled bonanza of propaganda for our fundamentalist Islamic enemies such as Isis, the Taliban and Al Qaeda. Additionally, it enrages our Islamic allies and utterly desecrates and destroys military unit cohesion, good order, morale and discipline. The United States Congress should at the very least censure this constitutionally derelict villain and universally despicable human being.”
