I stand corrected.

be given the severest punishment possible.

I stand by my original response. *It's a sad day when believing in

Our troops are not there to push ANY religious dogma, christian or
otherwise.
Having troops fight in the name of religion sounds more like the
Muslim world, doesn't it?
