The numbers are finally in for the number of religious exemptions the Army has approved.
The conservative and faith-based communities are outraged, as well they should be.
A mere 20 of the 8,000 exemptions submitted were approved, which amounts to a pitiful 0.25 percent.
One Nation Under God
Your faith is great, as long as it does not interfere with our agenda.
That is the message the Pentagon is sending with this mass rejection.
I can understand not approving all of the applications, and I think most of us would not have even looked at it had the approval rating been up around 50 percent.
But, 0.25 percent… you have to be kidding me, especially when you consider how many members of our armed military are faith-oriented.
Medical exemptions are not much better, having only approved 34 of the 1,100 requests, or 3.09 percent.
My question is this… if we allow military members to dress in Islamic garb because of religious beliefs, why are we not making religious exemptions for sticking medicine into one’s arm that is a Gen1 vaccine?
I could even understand if this was some sweeping epidemic that was wiping out our military, but there have been a total of 95 deaths in the 427,000 reported cases.
More members have been separated for not taking the vaccine than have died from the virus it is meant to protect against!
As I said above, this administration is making it quite clear that religious freedom is great, as long as it does not get in the way of the progressive agenda.
