War widow dedicates Wiccan plaque symbol -

RENO, Nev. - The widow of a soldier killed in
Afghanistan saw a Wiccan symbol placed on a memorial plaque for her husband Saturday, after fighting the federal government for more than a year over the emblem.
Roberta Stewart, widow of Sgt. Patrick Stewart, and Wiccan leaders said it was the first government-issued memorial plaque with a Wiccan pentacle a five-pointed star enclosed in a circle. More than 50 friends and family dedicated the plaque at Northern Nevada Veterans Cemetery, about 30 miles east of Reno.
They praised Gov. Kenny Guinn for his role in getting the Nevada Office of Veterans Services to issue the plaque in September. The agency cited its jurisdiction over maintenance of the state cemetery.
The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs recognizes more than 30 symbols, including more than a dozen variations of the Christian cross and the atomic whirl used by atheists, but not the pentacle.
VA officials have said they are rewriting rules for approving emblems, but the process requires a public comment period.
Last month, Americans United for Separation of Church and State sued the VA on behalf of Stewart and others for its refusal to include the Wiccan emblem.
"Our people are on the front line in the war in
Iraq and Afghanistan, and it's not right they're not getting equal treatment," said the Rev. Selena Fox, one of the Wiccan organizers of the event.
About 1,800 active-duty service members identify themselves as Wiccans, according to 2005 Defense Department statistics. Wiccans worship the Earth and believe they must give to the community. Some consider themselves "white" or good witches, pagans or neo-pagans.
Stewart and four other soldiers died Sept. 25, 2005, when their Chinook helicopter was shot down in Afghanistan.

It is a sad day when a hellbound wicker can have their satanic symbol in the Godly final resting places of the dead from Jesus' Army.

This must surely be a sign that we are in the Endtimes, Brother. Jesus has revealed to me that He is furious over this desecration.
Here is a partial list from just a few scripture verses:

Let's not forget what Jesus told us;
Daniel 12:2
And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
When Jesus comes to awaken those that are dead; some will be rewarded, some will go straight to hell. Having the tombstones marked will make our Saviour's job much easier. Perhaps we could mark the darkie's graves with a symbol of a baby crying and the homer's graves with a symbol of a scabby, diseased face. Who knows? This could all be part of Jesus's plan.

They're all going to Hell anyway, so why not have a flame, or horns, or even a little sculpture of the torment they will receive for eternity?
Jeremiah.17.15
Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.

Can't those people spit on Jesus in private, without demanding special privileges and public acceptance of their beliefs? What will they want next, affirmative action?

Just noticed this thread.
I didn't know there was a symbol for the Wiccan Plague . . . Mercy, I didn't even know it was CONTAGIOUS!
I suggest we all pray that we do not catch this horrible disease.

Even though I marched for unilateral disarmament in my younger days, I'm glad to see that the military is finally respecting the diversity of this country.

You mean Jesus can't tell the difference without checking the headstones? So much for omniscience.

Honoured for what? We might as well give Jihad Joe official burials with taxpayers' money, it'd make about as much sense.

Yes, He can, but it makes it a lot easier if He can just toss some people into Hell without bothering to examine them in depth. Same with foreskins.
O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it--for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen.
God being truth, justice, goodness, beauty, power, and life, man is falsehood, iniquity, evil, ugliness, impotence, and death. God being master, man is the slave. Incapable of finding justice, truth, and eternal life by his own effort, he can attain them only through a divine revelation... he who desires to worship God must harbor no childish illusions about the matter, but bravely renounce his liberty and humanity.

Shouldn't he be able to tell without having to look? What with him being omniscient and all...
