No Military Chaplains for Humanists, Says Congress

House lawmakers late Tuesday (July 23) approved an amendment to a Pentagon spending bill to prevent the appointment of nonreligious military chaplains.

The amendment, sponsored by Rep. John C. Fleming, R-La., requires that only religious organizations be permitted to endorse chaplains for the military.

?The amendment holds the military to its current standards on endorsing agencies, which must be recognized religious and faith-based organizations,? said Fleming?s spokesman, Doug Sachtleben.
