Jeremiah 16:19 O Lord, Who are my power and my strength and my refuge in the day of trouble, to You nations will come from the ends of the earth and say, "Only lies have our fathers handed down to us, emptiness in which there is nothing of any avail!

Zechariah 8:23 So said the Lord of Hosts: In those days, when ten men of all the languages of the nations shall take hold of the skirt of a Jewish man, saying, "Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you."

Atheism is a form of belief, and sometimes it resembles a cult. I don't think adding an atheist chaplain is a change for the worse as there are already imams in uniform preaching terrorisms.

Unitarian Universalist "pastors" are often agnostic or atheist, so it seems that they would have more success trying to associate the chaplain with a "religion" like that.

I've noticed that atheists have moved way beyond just wanting to not be discriminated against and are now working to actively remove religion from all aspects of public life.

I can see a scenario in which these atheist chaplains get in and then they slowly work toward saying the need for other chaplains is nullified because everyone can get the same moral support from an atheist chaplain.

Who needs 'chaplains' to tell you what 'NOT' to believe in? Sounds ridiculous to me...

You shall make yourself the Festival of Sukkoth for seven days, when you gather in [the produce] from your threshing floor and your vat.And you shall rejoice in your Festival-you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow, who are within your cities
Duet 16:13-14
