I wish my husband could be more outspoken about his atheism, but it really is difficult in the miltary enviroment to do so when you know you will not receive any support. He choses to keep it quiet for now, but is constantly frustrated for having to bite his tongue when Christian fundies start spouting off their religious ideals in front of the squadron and nothing is done about it.<br /> I don't think I would be able to hold it in, thus I probably wouldn't make it very far up the ranks.

Will you give us an update if there is any response to Haroold McLamb’s letter, or if you hear of any repercussions that come from it?

I admire him for speaking up, but am concerned for his career, and frankly, for his safety.

Many of the people that I work with have seen the article and congratulated me about it.....even my x-tian boss. I will keep everyone updated of the repercussions (if any). I appreciate everyones support on this matter. I had no idea that this was going to cause this much ruckus.
