Atheism in The Military – Isn’t that Anathema to Authority?

Sadly, I don’t have 90 minutes to watch this video. But if the title of this entry is relevant “Atheism in The Military – Isn’t that Anathema to Authority?”, why wouldn’t a devout religious belief also be anathema to authority? No matter how high a rank a human might have, God would have to conceivably outrank that person. Thus a soldier might decide that they could no longer take up arms against another human (because they were also one of God’s children) and ask for conscientious objector status or something like that.

Wouldn’t any strongly held belief (religious or not) that was at odds with goals of the military be something that might cause problems? How is something like this unique to atheism?

Well, of course we know it’s all BS. But that doesn’t stop the religious from stating we are the anathema.
