180 religions are being DROPPED from the Pentagon's recognized list, and they will now only recognize 31.
Pagans, Wiccans, Druids, Heathens, Shamanists, Atheists, etc. are now being pushed out of the US recognized list of religions. They claim its for military chaplain services... which I found doubtful. Abrahamic religions are being put in the spotlight even more, and coincidentally all Christian denominations are still listed. I don't think this is a coincidence. Our traditions and practices are slowly being pushed to the side even more.
"Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, who has pushed to incorporate public displays of Christian prayer into various military settings, signaled the changes earlier this year." -Independent
With Christianity being pushed front and center into specifically military settings. I believe this is going to bleed even into civilian life. We need to make a change before they erase those that don't believe in their point of view.
