As far as I see it a Police chaplain is fine as long as the officers are not made to listen to a priest that they do not want to. Unfortunately there are those that believe that just the presence of such a person is violating their rights. I do not agree with this as they are not being forced to agree to or with the particular religion. Personnel in the government should be allowed to express their personal religious beliefs so long as they do not try to force those beliefs on another.

I hear this often about forcing someone to believe in a certain way. Why is their such worry about that happening here, dont get me wrong I am not for it, I just dont know where this is happening in America. No one is ever forced to pray their is no gun held to their head. No one is forced to believe a certain doctrine or join a particular house of worship. I know this might be the way in the Mid east and also in communist China, where religious freedom is not tolerated. But why must we always talk about forcing, when its not an issue, or if it is tell me where its happening.
