Most importantly, christian religion. I can only imagine the hysteria if some department head sent an agency wide Ramadan message or something.

There are unconfirmed reports that soldiers were being told the war with Iran was being justified with the Second Coming of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Apparently there are evangelical sects that believe the only way Jesus will appear is by forcing Iran and Russia to attack Israel.
Evangelicals took Christianity and circles back around to pagan idea. They literally think they can summon their god.
It's also evident when they talk about how weather events are linked to sinful behavior. Their idea of god is something that can be controlled through gay sex.
They are of course incapable of the logical thinking to understand how blasemous their own behavior is towards the Christian god.
I wish it were real just so I could see the looks on their faces when he rejects them
That shit was going on in the 80s back when I was on active duty.
The military has long had some of it at particular facilities — the Air Force academy is notorious. But it's long been illegal, and was quite rare outside the military.
I thought there were multiple confirmations on that
The xtians are known for have fainting spells not only over a message from a competing Abrahamic religion, but they are known for getting the vapors over what this country was actually founded on: freedom not only of religion, but FROM religion.
This type of xtian seems to think that we only have freedom "of" to pick among several pre-approved Protestant strains. Catholics might be begrudgingly tolerated....for now.
Its christofascism
Definitely christian nationalism
Or pagan or Satanist.
Shout out for Americans United for Separation of Church and State. There are worse ways of spending your spare change than a donation to this organization.

The rise of the American clergy will usher in the American dark ages, where capital feudal lords will work in tandem with clerics and morals police to subvert the American people.
The north and south of the USA will sequester the country in fear of militants trying to capture more land to perform settler colonialism so they can take over through dominionist dogma.
In the end the nation will either fall apart or end up in revolution, after much horrible atrocity has been committed.
This is a prophecy of a bad timeline, one where they get absolute control. Don't let them do that, yankies.
Give them hell.
In a sermon delivered before Christmas, Franklin Graham told members of the military that “God is also a god of war.” On Good Friday, the DOD hosted a prayer service only for Protestants. A Pentagon spokesperson later told HuffPo that the “Pentagon Chaplain Office’s priest is not in town.” Hegseth has repeatedly framed the US war in Iran as a “holy war,” calling Iranians “barbaric savages” and called on Americans to pray for victory “in the name of Jesus Christ.”
God is also a god of war
"Jesus Christ"...as in the Prophet Jesus of the Quran, like Prophet Mohammad?
jfc The Boys was an actual documentary.
It's pretty wild. You can find copies of the Ethiopian Bible in English, which is the most complete Bible, to date, although mistranslations are certainly in there as well, and it doesn't contain the Book of Adam and Eve, and perhaps another book or two. It's kind of difficult to properly translate without reading ancient Aramaic, as well. I had to give myself a hiatus from studying it because I don't know Aramaic of any sort, and it's a long, slow, tedious process. If time, money, and proper education aren't factors, and one is interested, it's worth the time, as it's extremely fascinating.
Back when I was a clinic escort, we had a group of fundamentalist catholics we had to deal with. One of our escorts was a retired college professor who was fond of reading the early greek versions of the bible. Needless to say, there have been quite a few changes since then, and she always had fun with one of the picketers who liked to spout off bible verses, and she'd say, “Well, but it didn’t originally say that…”
