Wicca and headstones

I wasn't even aware that soldiers were able to list "Wicca" as their faith on dog tags. Something like this can easily go up to the Supreme Court... it would be interesting to see how the Roberts' court analyzes an issue like this.

I guess we will find out now if there really is freedom of religion in this country or if it is just propaganda.

I hope that since the soldiers are allowed to list it on their dog tags, that having the head stone show a symbol of their faith should not be a stretch. Give that he has a Purple Heart and a Bronze Star should not hurt matters either.

I would like to think this would cause 700 to pause for a moment but I am guessing he will condemn this soldier to hell as well even though the soldier gave his life defending 700’s right to spout his insidious tripe. I am confident that if there is a god, it has a special place reserved for remedial knuckle heads like 700.

You're forgetting .his religion is the only "correct" on out there. It's a proven, indisputable fact. Don't believe me? Just ask him! 😀

After a 10-year fight, the VA finally relented, agreeing to add the Wicca pentagram to its list of 38 other approved religious symbols, including an atom for atheists.

So, is Wicca the next yoga?

BTW, Local 12, you and I can join the Wicca Celtic group that extends membership offers to those of Irish heritage.
