Atheist soldier sues army, received threats

Pretty bad situation here. It's even worse that 96% of the 5500 complaints received by the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, an advocacy group, are from other Christians.

Soldier Sues Army, Saying His Atheism Led to Threats - New York Times

When Specialist Jeremy Hall held a meeting last July for atheists and freethinkers at Camp Speicher in Iraq, he was excited, he said, to see an officer attending.

But minutes into the talk, the officer, Maj. Freddy J. Welborn, began to berate Specialist Hall and another soldier about atheism, Specialist Hall wrote in a sworn statement. â..People like you are not holding up the Constitution and are going against what the founding fathers, who were Christians, wanted for America!â. Major Welborn said, according to the statement.

Major Welborn told the soldiers he might bar them from re-enlistment and bring charges against them, according to the statement.
