Atheists?

According to CNSNews.com, atheists and humanists serving in the U.S. military want their own chaplains. Let that soak in for a moment. Reportedly there is an organized push for official recognition of chaplains for those that don’t believe in life after death. Former Army Captain, Jason Torpy, president of the Military Association of Atheists and Freethinkers, says there may be as many as 40,000 troops that should have the support system.

When I was in the Army - not the Continental Army either - I never met any atheists. I did know some that had ‘no preference’ on their dog tags. When asked about that, the reply I always got was something like, "if the time comes, I just don’t want to waste time looking for somebody to come."

Until the 1970s military service academies required cadets to attend chapel services. There is or at least was a religious history to the U.S. military.

And, the American Atheists have announced they will again place "You Know it’s a Myth" billboards in New Jersey. This year they report there also will be signs in Ohio and Florida.

Okay! These people want to proclaim that God does not exist. The age old question is, "how can you deny existence without provoking thought that it must be true."

The American Atheists have been around since 1963. God was here first. So far as the military goes, it has often been said, "there are no atheists in a fox-hole."

I suppose that when they die they’ll just end up in a compost pile. Doesn’t sound like much fun to me.

How can any human think the way of atheists? Maybe it’s their diet.
