If I had a submarine, and staff, I would make it company policy that the fuckers don't fuck up operation of my fucking submarine by breaking local fucking laws.JimC wrote: ↑Sun Jan 13, 2019 6:55 amThe blanket rule that Joe has shown seems very moralistic.

If I were authoritarian, I would stick one poor fucker with the whole job, and blame that fucker for everything. (so if an underling got caught breaking a law, it's the Captain's 'fault')
It's nice that it was all the same fucker this time. He fucked up, he should pay (again lol)

The 'Walsh Question' 'What Is A Woman?' I'll put an answer here when someone posts one that is clear and comprehensible, by apostates to the Faith.

I suspect it's a result of the increase in evangelical Christian influence in our military.JimC wrote: ↑Sun Jan 13, 2019 6:55 amThe blanket rule that Joe has shown seems very moralistic.

Evangelicals tend to be more activist, and chaplains collectively have influence in the military. We hear a lot about the church/state issues that have arisen since the Air Force Academy is just north of town.Pentagon data analyzed by The Washington Post show a substantial rise in the number of evangelical chaplains in the past decade, along with a modest decline in mainline Protestant ministers and a precipitous drop in Catholic priests, mirroring a nationwide priest shortage.
BTW. If you read the full article, the Lt. Klingenschmitt they report on is an extreme example of this trend.
