Christian chaplain is being perseuted by Rainbow Mafia

From Demand Progress:

What would you do if you were a military chaplain ordered to deny Jesus Christ and the Holy Bible?

Lieutenant Commander Wes Modder (U.S. Navy) faced that exact threat.

He chose to hold fast to his Christian beliefs.

And now he is paying the price.

Public Advocate has long warned the nation that Christians are being persecuted in the military.

Radical atheist Mikey Weinstein was hired by Obama officials at the Pentagon to create new, anti-Christian guidelines for the military.

First among his priorities was silencing the evangelical military chaplains.

In his own words, their Bible-based counseling amounted to "spiritual rape."

And it's those policies that are now being used to punish and persecute Chaplain Modder.

Wes Modder has served as chaplain to Sailors, Marines, and Navy SEALs.

He is endorsed by the Assemblies of God and his commander described him as "the best of the best" and "a consummate professional leader."

Yet without any warning or a chance to defend himself, Lt. Commander Modder was stripped of his office. And now he is facing expulsion from the service.

All this is based on the 5-page "grievance" one junior assistant filed against him.

This assistant only worked with Modder for one month, yet used every minute to gather the "evidence" he needed to set the chaplain up.

He prodded at Modder constantly, baited him to make statements that could be taken out of context, took detailed notes, and even hacked into confidential medical counseling records.

In his own words, Modder described the assistant as "constantly peppering him with questions pertaining to homosexuality."

He was not forcing his views on anyone. He was patiently and respectfully sharing his Christian beliefs with an individual begging to know more.

But what Modder didn't realize was this assistant secretly identified as a homosexual.

It's now clear that all the assistant's efforts were part of a plot to entrap Chaplain Modder -- punishment for his support of Christian values.

Obviously the grievance against the Chaplain should have just been thrown out.

But the Pentagon is so desperate to endorse the Homosexual Agenda that they are trampling on the 1st Amendment religious protections.

In an interview, Chaplain Modder explained, "The military now wants a 2.0 chaplain instead of a legacy chaplain." They want a chaplain to accommodate policy that contradicts Scripture.

He has even been ordered to cease praying in the Name of Jesus.

Public Advocate has been strongly calling on Congress to step in and defend our Christian men and women in uniform.

With military leadership marching along with Obama's corrupt mandates, our soldiers will soon be left without any Christian spiritual guidance.

Are we a nation that wants to silence our Christian military chaplains?
