Atheist is kinda anti-religion so why would they need a chaplain?

There's a reason why they push this stuff.

Yes, the only reason for an atheist there would be to defeat the purpose.

speaking from the position as an atheist, I completely agree....if someone is truly atheist, they wouldn't apply for the position to begin with unless they simply wanted to stir the pot....

there is nothing good that would come out of that....

Why does a religious person need a chaplain? Why does someone apply to be a chaplain in the U.S. Navy?

To minister, pray, and help be a guiding light to those who are religious.

Why do atheist who don't believe in a higher being need someone to do those things for them?

put down the crack pipe son....

your posts are pointless and only provide fodder that deserve ridicule...

you deserve line 3 --> line 4 every day...

and as an atheist, nuts zongo will not pray for your arse....you're simply doomed to fail with that attitude...

Atheism isn’t a religion.

It’s an ideology. No other ideology has a chaplain.

Dictionary says...

Chaplin
1 : a clergyman in charge of a chapel. 2 : a clergyman officially attached to a branch of the military, to an institution, or to a family or court. 3 : a person chosen to conduct religious exercises

Clergy
1 : the body of all people ordained for religious duties, especially in the Christian Church.

To make things simple, a chaplain must support and minister to the faiths of the soldiers and sailors. Must provide religious services, advice, etc.

I've yet to meet in my lifetime, an atheist who would be comfortable with or agree to such a thing. Stinkfist is right... placing an atheist in such a position would only be meant to stir the pot and cause more harm than good within a profession that more often then not needs their members who have a faith in a higher being to have someone they can lean on, trust, and provide such services to them.

More stupid leftist trash that leads to nothing. What does the left hang their hat on? Russian architecture?
Nothing but world class losers. Thankfully most never marry and have kids.

Doesn't matter much if they don't have their own. They took up jobs in which they spend more time with children than the children's parents... first they took over college campuses, then they moved to high schools, junior high schools, and elementary schools. They rooted themselves into the young generations banking on the future of their failed ideologies by instilling them into the youngest and most impressionable minds. As they aged, they moved into powerful gov't positions in which they used their power to weaken the idea of family and the instructional wisdom of parents. They replaced the younger generations respect for family and dependency on parents to a dependency on gov't.

That's where we're at. It's a dark and disturbing future.

All true but they will lose. They offer nothing but misery.

Sorry. Let me compose myself.






Can't do it.

I think it gets much uglier before it gets any better. Sad reality, IMO.

I would be more in your shoes if I weren't sitting at work right now. Would much rather be home with a whiskey (neat), and enjoying a good laugh about the topic as well.

Well Brother this next Shiner Bock is for you!

Could you imagine going to a chaplain to talk about God and pray and the chaplain says there is no God. Go away.

Uhhhhh,

What’s an “atheist chaplain”? Wouldn’t that be like the guy down the block?

Funny, and alarming at the same time.
