Another post on Digg that caught my eye:

Some select quotes that are rather disturbing

Known as “the atheist guy,” Hall has been called immoral, a devil worshipper and — just as severe to some soldiers — gay, none of which, he says, is true.

I see that ignorant people continue to be ignorant.

The issue came to a head when, according to Hall, a superior officer, Maj. Freddy J. Welborn, threatened to bring charges against him for trying to hold a meeting of atheists in Iraq. Welborn has denied Hall’s allegations.

So apparently it’s illegal to be an atheist now. Good to know.
