"The United States Corps of Chaplains is not an entity of, nor
endorsed by, any branch of the military services or the United States
government."

It is a non-profit organization that discriminates by religion...


Good. Just occasionally I envy the Yanks for having secularism (pretty
much) enshrined in the constitution. Here in UK, where the Anglican
church
is a branch of government, chaplains in both the armed services and
National
Health Service are paid-for by the taxpayer.

Military services, Veterans Administration, and probably Public Health
Service "real" chaplains are paid by the U.S. government.
I have no idea how it is justified.

They feed you meds as food for your health.
They feed you food as food for your body.
They feed you knowledge as food for your intellegence.
They feed you spiritual comfort as food for your soul.

It's a smorgasboard. Take what ya want. If ya don't like the way the
spiritual food is prepared, you don't have to partake. Just because you do
not, does not mean that those that enjoy and relish it should be denied.
