PRAYER LIST

Mickey Weinstein is added to my prayer list because anyone who believe Christianity is evil/bad/or anything else negative is obviously an atheist.

I pray that just as the Saul of Tsarsus was walking on the road to Damascus who hated Christ more than anyone in his day suddenly was brought to his knees by Jesus the Son of the Living God who appeared right in front of him. He was converted immediately and I am praying that this man Mickey will have a similar situation. The POWER is in Prayer.

Just as Madyln Murray Ohare was the atheist who took prayer out of public schools even her own son came to Jesus Christ and repented for this sin.

Jesus Christ will return and the kingdom that man has created will be crushed.
Who wins in the end? Man, no Satan, no all those will be thrown into the Lake
of Fire. God WINS in the end. This is the Absolute.

May God continue to Bless this great country that was founded by Christian Men
who left the oppression of England. Gee I guess man still has not learned over
the course of history is still stupid and foolish.

Dear (name withheld),

I am a Christian (Episcopalian in fact) who fully supports Mikey’s and MRFF’s attempt to protect members of the U.S. Military from unconstitutional religious influence in relation to their training, assignment, advancement and retention.

I truly enjoy your efforts to proselytize your faith to everyone here at MRFF. In this private exchange of emails it is both appropriate and appreciated. I have the freedom (as do you) to demonstrably agree with your message, disagree with your message or totally ignore with no chance of repercussions. If on the other hand your proselytized message was being delivered to me in a government controlled situation where your official capacity was superior and mine subordinate, your message becomes immediately oppressive due to the loss of my freedoms as listed above.

Let me use the words of another in further explanation:
No one will be prosecuted simply for sharing one’s faith in the military. Sharing your faith – in a non-official context – is fine. What’s wrong is when it is in a mandatory, official, or any other context in which the power dynamic between the individuals is out of balance (e.g., a commander recommending church attendance to subordinates).

The language employed by Mikey in his writings is a forceful calling out of Christian Dominionists intent on using the military as their personal playground for proselytizing to an audience controlled by the UCMJ and Lawful Orders from their commanders. Your perception of anti-Christian hatred is based on Mikey and MRFF’s conscious choice to use some of the same language many Christian Dominionists consistently deploy against many who happen to disagree with either their proselytized message or their perceived non-existent right to spread it in a strictly government controlled setting. Mikey’s abandonment of ‘milk toast’ demands or responses regarding the actions of many Dominionists evolved from a combination of institutional stonewalling in the DoD and increasingly vicious, strident, and almost daily death threats against Mikey and his family from our fellow self-proclaimed Christians. This very strong response to this issue is exactly why I originally volunteered with MRFF.

Am I proud as a Christian that Judeo/Christian heritage and morality played a truly significant role in development of the U.S. Constitution & Bill of Rights? You better believe it. However, by adoption of the Constitution, we as a nation from that point forward agreed to be bound to each other under a democratic Man’s Law rather than a theocratic Devine Law. To believe otherwise is what is actual stupid and foolish in the context of history.

To sum up my perspective, I defend both my Christian faith and my Constitution proudly and equally. I simply don’t feel compelled to defend one at the expense of the other.

Peace be with you,
Andy Kasehagen
