Reply #6: I'd hate for the military to become a right-wing power base [View All]

Now that their thirty-year-old bit for electoral clout seems to be guttering out, the religious right is likely to be looking for other means of achieving the worldly power they believe is rightfully theirs. Their increasing influence over the military, at the military colleges, and in military towns is one of the most worrisome of those potential avenues.

I'm not quite ready to say "Bring back the draft" to counter it, but there has to be some way of making sure the United States armed forces are not taken over by Christian militants. Exposing their crude and hate-filled tactics is certainly a place to start.
