Yes even the chaplains… I received one of my frequent emails from Mikey Weinstein over at MRFF.

Living in fear… When I first came to the conclusion that I no longer accepted any established religion and washed Christianity off my palate I was at a crossroads. I was an agnostic deist when my wife and I exchanged vows and within the first year of marriage I came to the conclusion through my studies …
