Navy Chaplain May Face Court-Martial For Praying - Clergyman Prayed In Uniform Outside White House

POSTED: 4:39 am PDT May 4, 2006

NORFOLK, Va. -- A chaplain stationed at Naval Station Norfolk said he could face court-martial for praying in uniform outside the White House.

Lt. Gordon Klingenschmitt said he prayed at a March 30 protest opposing Department of Defense rules forbidding military chaplains from invoking the name of Jesus Christ.

He's accused of violating an order not to appear in uniform at news conferences in support of personal or religious issues.

The issue seems to hinge on whether his praying at the event was permissible participation at a bona fide religious service. Klingenschmitt is rejecting non-judicial punishment in favor of trial by court-martial.

In addition, he's filing a complaint against the Navy claiming the threat of punishment against him amounts to religious harassment and he's appealing to the White House to end what he claims are the military's attempts to take reprisals against a whistle-blower.

wth?? Isn't that what chaplains DO???

he's appealing to the White House to end what he claims are the military's attempts to take reprisals against a whistle-blower.

Lots of luck there. The antiChrist in the whorehouse will invoke the name of Satan Claws, and his dead-as-a-doornail "messiah" the REEB Schneerson, but he would never condone invoking the name of Jesus Christ except before an election to deceive the "Christians". Pity these poor goyim in Lucifer's service. I wonder when Bush will officially declare himself God.

I believe I've personally read about 4 news stories over the last 2-3 years about this one chaplain and his complaint. When he was stationed in Italy (I think same guy) his superior who is a chaplain told him that he could not say 'in the name of jesus' at the end of his prayers. Well, you know many christians like to say that. and many do not like to say that. But he's a chaplain at services with many christians, not just those who like to say that. He says it and his superiors don't like it. I have no idea why they don't like it. but this has been going on for years. He's been ordered to stop saying it and he refuses. I guess they'll drum him out.

that "chaplain" is most likely a crypto-Jew entered in unawares.

I bet they don't have a problem with whoever it is they invoke at their government-mandated Wiccan services.

I guess they'll drum him out

He'd be lucky. I'd leave that unholy pentagram group and not look back.
