A Christian General is being threatened with a court martial for simply thanking God.
General Craig Olson spoke at a National Day of Prayer event thanking God and talking about the power of prayer.
Now an anti-Christian group has filed a complaint, demanding he face a court martial and be “aggressively and visibly brought to justice for his unforgivable crimes and transgressions.”
Outrageous.
But this group – which calls Christians in the military “monsters who terrorize” – has consulted with the Pentagon on religion in the military.
The threat is real.
We’re taking direct action, sending the military a critical legal letter setting the record straight. The Constitution protects religious liberty in the military.
Yesterday we remembered those who sacrificed for our freedoms. Today we must defend the religious freedom of our brave servicemen and women. Join our letter.
Sign Our New Petition: Defend Christians in the Military.
