The message couldn't be clearer: if you're not the "right" kind of religious, you don't count. A military that serves all Americans shouldn't be in the business of deciding which beliefs are worthy of recognition. [contains quote post or other embedded…

"Love the sinner, hate the sin" has been used for decades to justify discrimination while maintaining a veneer of compassion. Pride Month exists because LGBTQ+ people got tired of being told they should be grateful for being tolerated instead of accepted.
