  • The Threat to Religious Liberty in the Military Introduction
    October 25, 2013 Edition A Clear and Present Danger: The Threat to Religious Liberty in the Military Introduction The Armed Forces of the United States have defended this nation for well over two and a quarter centuries. The soldiers, sailors, Marines, airmen, and Coast Guardsmen who have been injured, wounded, and killed in defense of our country often have been very committed to their faith in God. Should it be surprising that those who face serious injury and death so regularly might focus more consciously on matters of eternity? It seems only natural that the gravity of military life should lead to serious consideration of spiritual matters. Military life is hard and dangerous. It requires a level of focus and endurance – physical, mental, and spiritual – that simply is not required of many other occupations. Consequently, one would expect that those who pursue a military life must attain to a higher level of self-discipline than their civilian counterparts. In this, as in many areas of life, George Washington is a towering example of what it means to be a great soldier in a republic. Washington was extremely disciplined and deeply religious. These traits were not merely coincidental. Rather, they were self-reinforcing. So it is with members of the modern Armed Forces. Religious conviction is not merely an add-on belief, it is like a strand in a rope that complements the others while greatly increasing strength. Military life in the United States has always had a strong religious component for the reasons given above but also, as Alexis de Tocqueville noted, because Americans have been and continue to be a genuinely religious people.

  • CLEAR and PRESENT FALSEHOODS: the Real State of Religious Freedom in the Military
    CLEAR AND PRESENT FALSEHOODS: The Real State of Religious Freedom in the Military A report from Americans United for Separation of Church & State Maggie Garrett Legislative Director, Americans United Elise Helgesen Aguilar Federal Legislative Counsel, Americans United Peter Zupan Intern, Americans United CLEAR AND PRESENT FALSEHOODS: The Real State of Religious Freedom in the Military Introduction Issues related to religious freedom in the military have become prominent lately. Religious Right groups and their political allies have accused the armed forces of being hostile to evangelical Christianity. Americans United for Separation of Church and State and other critics have retorted that these claims are overblown and have pointed out that the military, like the rest of American society, is marked by growing religious diversity. Indeed, Americans United fully appreciates the need for and value of religious accommodations in the armed services. Yet, even as we support religious accommodations, we recognize the equally important and coextensive need to ensure that service members are not subject to coercive religious practices or unwanted proselytizing. Religious freedom means both the right to practice religion and the right to be free from government endorsement and coercion. The military must find a way to protect the rights of a variety of believers (as well as those who hold to no faith) while not lapsing into the promotion or sponsorship of religion. Key to understanding issues surrounding religion in the military is recognizing that the military occupies a unique positon in American society and presents special challenges. In the military, for example, men and women may be stationed far away from their homes (often in foreign countries) and don’t have access to the houses of worship they may have attended.

Inspired by the seminal work of Professor Jill Lepore, The Whites of Their Eyes, this thesis attempts to further investigate the Tea Party movement and their unique relationship with the past: from the social movement’s links with other conservative historical organisations such as the John Birch Society, to the Tea Party movement’s adoption and exploitation of the history of the American Revolution as a means of gaining political legitimacy.
