I will soon be launching a sister-blog to my own to discuss supporting the MRFF...not only financially (for those able in these tough days) but magically! If prayer curses are to be launched...why not a magical curtain of protection, and for those who don't mind the smiting job---a counter-attack! The new blog will be called "The Candle"....I hope to have it up sometime next week. Greetings Bryon!

Mike gets dozens of calls a day from service members being pressured by ultra-Christian commanders to "be born again" and told (even if they ARE mainstream Christian) that they are hell-bound for not being part of "Christ's Army". He has received so many death-threats that he is no longer insurable, has to hire security and has an FBI agent on his case full-time; to no avail apparently. The MRFF has launched a lawsuit about these curse-like prayers, and the Dominionist/Christian Identity types who seem in control of the military chaplaincy. I fervently urge financially supporting MRFF, because I believe this is the last wall of defense for separation of Church and State. Getting control of the military arm IS how religious fundamentalists got control in other countries.
