Agape Press is reporting that a U.S. Navy Chaplin is being court marshaled for praying. No, I didn’t make this up.
Klingenschmitt says all he did at this event while in uniform was to say a prayer for America's armed forces from the Book of Common Prayer, an invocation ending with the words "through Jesus Christ, our Lord, Amen."
It goes on …
"I'm being punished for wearing my uniform and praying in Jesus' name in front of the White House," he says, "and my contention is that I had prior written permission to wear my uniform."
We’ve lost something as a nation, and I’m not sure we can get it back.
