President Trump. Is this going to happen on your watch? This is about the most depressing story I have read in years.
A Muslim has been awarded the job as Chaplain for an entire army division.
McClatchy ran a profile, and as I’m reading it my mouth is agape at how utterly preposterous the words are.
By the time you get to the part about how this lifelong Christian entered into a debate with a Muslim and had his eyes opened to how superior Islam is, you will be stupefied and enraged.
This commenter had a similar reaction-
“It was all-out cognitive dissonance, depression and shame, honestly,” Shabazz said, recalling his feelings at that moment. “I thought I had a stronghold on the truth. And, for the first time, my confidence was shaken in who I was as a human being and what I believed.”And now he will be chaplain for a 99.9% Christian division / Congregation.
Hell in a hand basket!
As a soldier, a spiritual one, I would think my last rites, should they be needed, will be compromised by the presence of a messenger of Muhammad.
But, as long as the army brass feels good about themselves, that’s all that matters, right?
I am appalled.
Please President Trump, intervene.
ht/ fdr in hell
Mattis better get this fixed……Fast!
Well this is going to be a sticky situation seeing that he’s not supposed to fight on the side of the infidels.
I bet his name comes up again in a few months. But not in a good way.
watch your back soldiers.
Too many Obamaists still in the Pentagon. Mattis has to drain that swamp.
This is just a dumb decision. It wouldn’t matter whether the Chaplain is as far away from radical or fundamental Islam as is possible he will not inspire the confidence needed for a soldier to turn to him in a time of spiritual need especially since the chances are the next battle they are in will be against people of the Muslim faith. Just stupid.
If they have to completely eliminate chaplains from the military to keep the muz out, it’s worth it.
muslims, homosexuals, transsexuals, fluid genders, the military doesn’t need any enemy to fight they need a psychiatrist and group therapy !
Allahu fubar.
“Shabazz, stunned, was down for the count.”
Bet I can guess pretty accurately what is his IQ.
You could too, just pick a number between 60 and 85.
Please! Is there a General Pershing in the house?
Let’s just hope that the chaplains serving under him, remain strong in their faith.
WTF? In the comments we learn that Shabazz counseled Hasan at Fort Hood before the shootings.
And this surprises you, Cate?
When some of us wanted to immediately Impeach the fraud preznit, who was most obviously a muslim, did you think we were impudent pages for john mccain?!
Whomever is responsible for this travesty should be kicked out of the Army by the end of the day. This is treason and subversion, horribly demoralizing to the troops.
The fix for this is to disband all military chaplains. This is what you get with our current system. You don’t get promoted as a chaplain because your denomination is popular. You get promoted by putting in your time. It is only a matter of time until the top chaplains in the military are all sorts of oddities, like Pagans, and even Atheists.
And it is in no way demoralizing to our troops because most of our troops no longer care about chaplains. The really devout Christians see Chaplains as being too “government approved religion”, and the non-devout ones would rather sleep in on Sunday. The Chaplain corps is just one more anachronism that the military can to without completely. A much better solution would be granting access to chaplains from private denominations. Not paid by the Government. No uniforms. No rank. And the troops would have the freedom to visit any chaplain they want to, at their own expense.
Here’s the link if anyone is interested in reading about Shabazz and Hasan. http://mobile.wnd.com/2009/11/115466/
I think shock represents my status, not surprise. I can’t believe the current Military cannot connect dots.
I just dug a toy soldier out of the toy box we have here. I have it standing now in a prominent place in our kitchen. Say a prayer for our soldiers and also our other military branches.
Lord, protect them from all enemies foreign and domestic. Amen.
When I was in bootcamp, I very much looked forward to Sunday service. It was the only time to escape the hell I was going through… spiritually, mentally, and physically, and as close to home as I could get. Do not take chaplains away from us. And please, for the love of God, keep them Christian!
Make no mistake: we are At War, and we will stay At War with this strange and mysterious Enemy for the rest of our lives . . . unless they are stopped.
Who is this unconventional Enemy? This eccentric, mystifying movement working inside America today? Its name is Islam and its objective is to convert the world’s peoples into Muslims and transform the United States into an Islamic nation.
Islam’s goal is not terrorism. Their ultimate goal is to establish a global Islamic state over the entire world. If they can accomplish this in a peaceful manner, that’s fine. But they are decreed by a holy punitive Code to establish this global Islamic state on the rubble of every civilization, every constitution, every government, every religion, every people, who oppose them and their Prophet.
President Trump, Please Pick Up The White Courtesy Phone . . .
Unacceptable! This cannot stand!
Has there ever been a Jewish chaplain?
I thought they had to be Christian. Rabbi’s weren’t called Chaplain, called something else.
I’m getting old.
Old enough for a 8 year old child bride, maybe?
Islam is called a religion as an excuse.
We should also know who is the low grade moron who signed his orders.
How many Jews tend to enlist in the services? Wiccans? Atheists? Islam says they’re all fit to be slaughtered as enemies of Allah.
Him: “I’m here to counsel you, WO Dadof4.
Me: ‘Is Jesus your savior?’
Him: “No”
Me: ‘Would you kindly get the fuck out of my face and find me an actual Christian clergyman? No offense, but scram scum.’
Still America. Still 2017.
Better off visiting a doll house, with uh.. young-looking dolls?
