A combat-unit commander told non-commissioned officers at a briefing Monday that the Iran war is part of God’s plan and that Pres. Donald Trump was “anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth,” according to a complaint by a non-commissioned officer.
From Saturday morning through Monday night, more than 110 similar complaints about commanders in every branch of the military had been logged by the Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF).
The complaints came from more than 40 different units spread across at least 30 military installations, the MRFF told me Monday night.

The scary thing is not just that commanders may be saying this, but what an extreme outlier the citizens of the USA are when it comes to not being able to differentiate between reality and fairy-tales: https://www.csmonitor.com/USA/USA-Update/2015/0316/Do-countries-become-less-religious-as-they-get-richer
Even when the specific fairy-tales oppose these actions: quotes from Jesus according to the gospels:
“If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also.” Matthew 5:39
“Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,” Luke 6:27
Religion is a mental illness, a personal defect, an intellectual flaw, and the biggest threat facing humanity right now. By far.
Hey, Kegsbreath, does Jesus know about it?
My fix for the world.
eradicate religion (with education and critical thought), and billionaires.
Its very simple.
So Jesus anointed a shit covered pedo rapist begin a war with Iran by way of marking his return? Got it, no follow up questions.
Christians always looking for new and fun ways to make the world a worse place. At least theyre on brand.
Isn’t this the point at which you stand up and walk out of the room?

Hitchens had a book(2007) religion poisons everything. every few years they whip the faithful into a frenzy hoping to make their delusions real. ‘if we don’t reach our money goals, god will take me home’ said another faith leader. this seems like successful Russian propaganda, today anyway. obscure blogger fans flames. army guys don’t go to church a lot.
Christoid brainrot is going to kill us all jesus fucking christ
Murricans always telling us we should be afraid of the mad militaristic, totalitarian theocracy
Just… What is even going on? I don’t remember people being this stupid and cruel. This is after 2 world wars. How could people not see that they’re doing the same things that the other dickheads did to gain enough power to butcher people? People are mad and stupid
The NCO said they were Christian and emailed the MRFF on behalf of 15 troops, including at least 11 Christians, one Muslim, and one Jew. (Full email printed below.) The NCO wrote to the MRFF that their commander “urged us to tell our troops that this was ‘all part of God’s divine plan’ and he specifically referenced numerous citations out of the Book of Revelation referring to Armageddon and the imminent return of Jesus Christ.”
How can you go in front of your mixed troops and start waxing lyrical about your specific religion? Like what sort of brain disease leads to this? Even if you are religious, you have to know that other people take their other religions just as seriously and recognize that perhaps it’s better not to sow discord between them if they are supposed to battle together.
