Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #chaplains, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Christian field chaplains on the Western Front, France, WW1, 1915

  2. Rumsfeld in 2001 invited some local #Muslim leaders to the #Pentagon to gauge their feelings about how the admin was communicating, said a chaplain who was at the meeting.

    Around that time, the Navy Chaplain Corps changed its motto from “Cooperation Without Compromise” to “Called to Serve All.” The change aimed to emphasize that #chaplains served everyone in their command, no matter the faith.

  3. Ret Army Maj Gen Randy Manner, who was second-in-command at the #NationalGuard 2011–2012, has worked in recent years to train hundreds of #interfaith #military #chaplains. Manner said he has talked with “dozens & dozens” of active-duty chaplains in recent weeks who say those who don’t identify with #Hegseth “are being marginalized.”

  4. And in recent weeks, the #war with
    #Muslim-majority #Iran has only made Hegseth’s approach more stark.
    
On Wednesday at the #Pentagon, #Hegseth prayed for #US #troops to inflict “overwhelming violence of action against those who deserve no mercy…We ask these things with bold confidence in the mighty & powerful name of Jesus Christ.” Later that day, his department announced #military #chaplains would no longer wear their rank on their uniform & instead would wear #religious insignia.

  5. The Secretary of War just said "Our chaplains are chaplains, not emotional support officers."
    Isn't emotional support precisely what priests, rabbis, ministers, imams, et al, do offer, especially in the kind of war Hegseth prays for? #SecretaryofWar #PeteHegseth

    Everyone knows that, asshole. Your lack of response obviously means that you and your hospital support the #fascist #takeover of our country & the #deportation of #immigrants. Now #fuck off. :fuck_face:

  11. At event for #Christian #lawmakers, panelists insist #Satanists can't be #school #chaplains

    youtube.com/watch?v=9rQl9fr5KC

    Panelists at an event for the National Association of Christian Lawmakers explained how to get Christian chaplains in #publicschools.
    As a bonus, they said, #Satanists and #Muslims could be excluded from the mix. (They're wrong. That's #illegal.)

  12. "The expansion in #voucher programs is part of a broader move in some states toward more government-sponsored #religion inside #public #schools.

    New laws allow schools to hire #chaplains for counseling or other roles, let teachers pray aloud with students and mandate hanging of “In God We Trust” signs...

    In Oklahoma... the state could directly fund what would be the nation’s first #religious charter school."

  13. Why Allowing Chaplains in Public #Schools Harms Students

    A 2023 #Texas law allowing public schools to hire #chaplains or accept them as volunteers, to provide student support services has inspired more states to consider copycat legislation.

  14. Looks like someone needs to educate the Queensland Department of Education. The only difference between #chaplains and student wellbeing officers in the #NSWP is the religious basis of the former. #qldpol

    "...in #Bible reading during the #school day; a second will require the posting of the 10 #Commandments in public school #classrooms; the third will authorize “#chaplains” in #public #schools."

  16. #HolySaturday #Thorneyburn in #Northumberland was built as a living for former #Navy #Chaplains. Some of them didn’t cope well in a place far removed from cramped busy sailing ships.

  17. #introductions:

    I’m a #musicologist and #medievalist, an early morning writer and a regular woods-walker, and a generalist in the classroom (#Shakespeare; #pandemics). I research women’s monastic communities, especially their libraries. I’m currently focused on the Tertiaries of Thalbach in #Bregenz, Austria, with a side-tour to the #chaplains of the city. I’ve published on women as scribes and on historiography, but a lot of my current engagement is with German prayer-books.
