And then the US Army says THIS is OK:

Is that part of the miltary dress code or did the cadet take it upon themselves to wear a non-complying uniform? Rhetorical since we both already know the answer.

Government is corrupt. Our communities are corrupt. Businesses are corrupt. Therefore we should burn it all down?

We shouldn't be an apologist for it or whine when it suffers the ramifications of its behavior. There's no nuance in your argument, zero. It's either 'Help, help I'm being attacked!' or 'Why you attacking me? You want to burn it all down?'.

The Department of Defense knew about the tags for over twenty years and were fine with these tags. One person opens their mouth in complaint and wham!

A Chaplin had called the maker of these tags from a battlefield asking for them because others wanted them. He donated most of them.

These tags have brought comfort to our military members and I would never want to take that away from them.

Turban has official Army crest used during graduation ceremony; can only be done with approval of superiors.

So, answer the question: is this OK or not ?

Go back and read the OP, Mason. I laid it all out pretty well. I'm not sure if you even expect to be taken serious at this point.

Being that it's sanctioned it's obviously OK as my post stated.

I did and I then quoted the portions that I wanted to address, primarily the part where you think the Church was treated unfairly by the media who helped expose their decades long sex abuse coverup.

I see.

So, wearing a very prominent, very visible but Sikh religious symbol is OK.

but wearing a Christian dog tag under your t-shirt under your uniform, barely if at all visible: not OK.



Ok.
So we have established your severe anti-Christian bigotry.

And a Merry Christmas to you....

Excellent!

Quote where I stated that, Mason. Please do not put words in my mouth. I still have trouble taking you seriously.

I may be wrong, but isnt the purpose of dogtags to identify the dead and the wounded, and that religion is an identifier when it comes to life and death matters for reasons such as rites and how the dead are interred?

That isn't what these are.

this is EXACTLY what they are. they are inscribed with name, blood type, and religious indicator.
I know because I was issued a set.

If it's approved.

No, if it's not approved.

Setting aside the fact that I think all organized religions suck you seem to be sad that there are rules for dress in the military and you don't like it. Oh well.

You mean where you said this:

First, the corporate media attacked the Church with multiple child abuse claims...

Awww, the poor Church, caught covering up child abuse. You don't attack perverts when you report on their pervert behavior, you're exposing them as perverts.

I’ll just continue to shake the dust off my feet, allow the Lord to heap burning coals on their heads, and rejoice as I store my treasures up in Heaven.

You have missed the point of burning coals, heaping burning coals is an act of love and charity to an enemy, giving more than requested
Shake the dust by all means but, heaping burning coals to cause harm, that’s not Jesus
......

Anyway
The church has been a disgrace from its inception, we are all to blame
From Constantine, crusades, inquisitions, Protestant wars, greedy evangelists with jets and mansions, child abuse issues, lies and corruption

Who can blame those who don’t trust the church?

You claimed I said the Church was "treated unfairly" by the media.

I even stated that I agreed with it being exposed.

originally posted by: LoneCloudHopper2
I thought I made it pretty clear that I wasn't opposed to reporting those abuses. If you took a look at my other threads you'd see child abuse is an important issue to me. I was pointing out the series of moves they have made against Christianity. There is a very clear pattern. Exposing child abuse and cover-up was a natural place to start because we'd all agree that needed exposure. But it didn't stop there.

I guess you didn't watch the video, these are not standard issue dog tags, these are non-military dog tags with additional embellishment.

If you're going to discuss the topic with me at least get through the Original Post first.

So it was fairly attacked? Justifiably attacked? I know what you're doing with that weak rhetoric, you're dog whistling. Just like the 'OMG! I can't say Merry Christmas anymore!' part.

““...and as you join Freemasonry, initially they'll tell you that their G, the G in the square and compass, means God. But then as you go up through the levels, they'll tell you, 'Oh, this stands for Gnosis, knowledge.' But then when you get higher up it stands for the Generative principle, which means, buggering little boys. And I'm not saying that on my own authority. I spoke with the highest ranking Freemason to defect to Christianity, Jim Shaw, and um, he was a 33rd degree Freemason, and I had a number of conversations over the phone with him about Freemasonry. And um, you know, I got it from the horse's mouth.” Fritz Springmeier on the Hagmann & Hagmann Report - 10/17/13, (Transcript from about 1:38 into the archived mp3) [2012] Part 1 - The Sodomite Gateway - Gnosis, Illumination and Communion with the gods”. whale.to...

Yeah, people say things don’t they

See this? Make believe or paranoia? People's minds turn cuckoo in the Bubble Bunker.

Hell. Why stop here?

Let’s just get rid of their names and DOBs too.

Just give them a bar-code or QR scan.

Let’s get this show rolling!

Think bigger people. C’mon man!
