I check in every day. This is truly an issue, not only in the military but with clergy in general. With no formal religious seminary-type training, many Pagan spiritual leaders are left outside the clerical circle. "Professional" clergy look down their noses on what they consider unlearned regular folk playing spiritual leader. Our hope and prayer is that the Pagan worshipers in the military are able to get the support they deserve. And that our Pagan spiritual leaders will find acceptance among other clergy.
