Dear Mikey,

I am trying.
As a Christian US ARMY Sergeant First Class, I gladly share my faith and testimony of the love of Jesus Christ, and the power of forgiveness and redemption.
It is sad to see an organization like your gain access to our country leadership.

But you only have to look at the Commander in Chief to recognize why your group commands such attention.

You are in my prayers daily.
I will have my troops pray for you also.

    Mr. ?? (whatever),

    I am a Christian that has never served in the Armed Forces but I can’t see putting more hardship on the men and women that serve our country and protect us from harm. Why don’t you take your group overseas, maybe then you can be taken seriously?? No true American would deny GOD, this country was founded on religious freedom, not persecution, as you would have it.
