"We no longer have a Pentagon; it has become a Pentecostalgon," says Mikey Weinstein, founder of the <A target="new" href="http://militaryreligiousfreedom.org">Military Religious Freedom Foundation</A>, which is suing the military over what the organization deems the force-feeding of religion. "Our Department of Defense has become a contagion of unconstitutional, fundamentalist Christian fascism," he says.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.motherjones.com/news/update/2007/11/eric-horner-american-soldiers.html?src=email&link=hed_20071121_ts1_Tour%20of%20Duty">The day after the show, a posting by Horner's wife on <I>GoArmyParents.com</I> listed among the songs Horner played the track "Press On," in which Horner exhorts troops to "press on in the name of Jesus."</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.motherjones.com/news/update/2007/11/eric-horner-american-soldiers.html?src=email&link=hed_20071121_ts1_Tour%20of%20Duty">Horner has found military training bases to be fertile grounds for soul saving.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/A945D37C-C0F6-4424-8E54-BB339BD5FD41/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
