Mr. Weinstein has a no-tolerance view of Christianity in the military, Breitbart reported. One of his beliefs: Soldiers who share the gospel of Jesus Christ are guilty of \u201ctreason\u201d \u2014 even chaplains, Breitbart found.<\/span><\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">Read more: <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtontimes.com\/news\/2013\/may\/2\/pentagon-soldiers-who-spread-faith-may-be-prosecut\/#ixzz2SCt5uSQN\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff; font-family: Calibri;\">http:\/\/www.washingtontimes.com\/news\/2013\/may\/2\/pentagon-soldiers-who-spread-faith-may-be-prosecut\/#ixzz2SCt5uSQN<\/span><\/a><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Soon the media picks up on the story and reports on it.

Eventually he was involved with an incident accosting a Captain\u2019s wife. He was not court-martial nor given non judicial punishment but given him a psychological evaluation and a general under honorable discharge. <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">This silliness could been avoided if somebody just fact check the story with the DoD. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few weeks ago I report how the liberal media is spreading anti gun hysteria in my \u00a0post Hello Kitty Gun Used to Spread Gun Story Misinformation , a story where the press was hinting \u00a0Sanro is creating Hello Kitty &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.asinglelion.com\/lionspeak\/?p=514\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[200,8,57],"tags":[230,229,228],"class_list":["post-514","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-business","category-media","category-reviews","tag-dod","tag-mikey-weinstein","tag-religion-ban"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asinglelion.com\/lionspeak\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/514","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asinglelion.com\/lionspeak\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asinglelion.com\/lionspeak\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asinglelion.com\/lionspeak\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asinglelion.com\/lionspeak\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=514"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.asinglelion.com\/lionspeak\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/514\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":519,"href":"https:\/\/www.asinglelion.com\/lionspeak\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/514\/revisions\/519"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asinglelion.com\/lionspeak\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=514"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asinglelion.com\/lionspeak\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=514"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asinglelion.com\/lionspeak\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=514"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
