US Displays Nazi like Pageantry of Militrarism in Church February 24. 2005


One would think that bringing a semi-automatic weapon into a place of religious worship would only happen in countries that are run by tyrants and dictators. Well, maybe that is happening right here in the US? I received the following email from someone at McCormick: "I'm not sure who posted it but it's about a military recruiting evening held in a Baptist church in Lexington, Kentucky. A guy was asked by his father to attend a 'father-son' event and he brought a camera and was really disturbed to see a place of Christian worship being used to promote militarism and warfare. Even though this guy is a Republican and supporter of the war, he was shocked at the visual propagandistic ritual, which reminded him of movies he had seen about Nazi pageantry. Anyway, his account is not the best but check out the photos-you have to see this to believe it."
