President Joe Biden wants to court-martial Christian chaplains in the military. Well, that’s what some conservatives claim. Such hyperbole came as Republican senators grilled the president’s nominee for one of the most high-profile positions in all of Washington, D.C.: the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Manpower and Reserve Affairs. Check that, it’s a position few of us knew even existed. But the hearing over Biden’s nominee reveals significant fault lines in our country regarding perceptions of how religion and state mix.
Brilliant - and thank you. Amazing how ignorant these senators are about chaplaincy. But they clearly know their audience, which is clearly their only concern. The campaign for christian nationalism still has representation, and in very high places.
