Yes, too many people have been influenced by their favorite movie with Bullpups on the loose! poor weapon for most scenarios, but awesome movie prop!

Starship Troopers had a huge influence on the Army, I think to much of one. After 1997 you see the adoption of the Beret, grey tan uniforms even when HK was given the push for the start of the XM8 there first feedback was “Make it look Starship Troopers”.

Bullpups have a place sure, for a PDW class weapon it’s really good but as a general issue rifle it leaves something to be desired. Particularly in the Automatic weapon configuration.

The US military has some of the most accepting rules on religion. However that’s not exactly new or unique.

Historically speaking this isn’t that odd. In the early 20th century for example a number of the Major commanders of world war 1 were well away from mainstream religious belief. General Fuller of The UK was a Thelemite, the German senior commander Moltke the Younger was a follower of the Theosophical movement. A Russian General is claimed to have held seances to talk to soldiers who died in battle in order to get reports on the situation. Not exactly what we normally think of Victorians or Edwardian.

Who knows whats in Erdo's heqd?? He does seem to like the President, and the President seems to like him for some reason?? I think the Pres thought that would give Erdogan an incentive to do the right thing, and try to negotiate a legit solution to the Turks concerns???

Yes but it doesn’t specify which one(s). Historically the US was founded by a number of different groups with different religions. The separation of Church and state is enshrined in the Constitution although not as a block on it but to allow an individual to believe as they please, and so as to prevent the Government from forcing a state run church like that of the British system. Today if you are on a military base there are plenty of churches and services to serve a wide number of faiths including Wicca, Islam, Catholic, Protestant, Lutheran, Pentecostal, and many many more.
In the case we are addressing however the Satanic Temple is a group know for being political as well a religious. If all they want is a space to worship no issue. If they want to make policy there is a line.

I noticed Trump got support because of a different approach than what's common 'inside the Beltway', but he's overdoing this

To my knowledge there is no recognition by the service of the Church of Satan either. However I don’t think is grounds for removal from service. Basically if they get approved oh well. If they don’t well they will make there own decisions.
