Aussie military actively seeking to employ religious frauds. Apply today!
Here is proof:
But now I understand why they want these parasitic pastors, these fraudulent friars:
The Army chaplain is to provide spiritual ministry to all members of the Army to foster those high qualities of faith, character and conduct, which inspire courage and self-sacrifice in adversity.
Being expert liars with deceptive banter honed over eons, the military wants them to lie to our troops in order to keep them robotically docile, and willingly do whatever they are told with their pesky morality getting in the way of murdering people, and being killed solely for the sake of propping up politicians’ egos.
So, if you need a job, and have no conscience whatsover, are able to lie convincingly, then this is the job for you!
(Used car sales-people need not apply: you have too many scruples for this job.)

Answering which religion you belong to is an optional question, but if you are an atheist, that doesn’t count toward “No Religion”!

We already have a few atheist members pretending to be priests, pastors, etc. Most have already infiltrated local churches and are bringing them down from the inside.

I’m a little pissed off about what my friend in the reserves says about religion in the ADF. While atheist diggers have to cook, clean and drill, theists get most of sunday off, and the Chaplains help their flock out with getting lollies, chocolate, soft drinks and phone calls home (which are privileges normaly controlled by tight fisted officers)
It stinks of the “love-bombing” cults and extreme Christian sects use on potential converts, and the implied emotional blackmail really shits me (“You want to call your family and loved ones? Well, maybe if you devoted your life to Christ instead of being a soulless heathen we’d let you use this here phone”)
Soldiers should get sunday morning off without having to pretend they’ve got a note from the Creator Of All Things saying He’s feeling a bit down and the soldier needs to go cheer Him up by praising His name.

Broggly:
I have similar concerns that stem from my Army experiences in the 1960’s & 70’s. (That dates me, doesn’t it!)
As a naive atheist at a training camp in the central desert of SA, when it came to my first Sunday roster, the Sergeant quizzed us all as to our ‘religion’. I was the only one who listed ‘none’.
I was thereby sent to the Quartermaster to “help” (read “do all of the work”) for the lazy bastard. I thought that this was normal until I asked my mates at the end of the day what tasks they had been assigned to.
“Singing”, “Mumbling”, “Praying” and most prevalently “Fuck-all, mate!” were the replies.
After investigating the various available denominational options, (all Xtian) (Jewish, Anglican, Catholic, or the incomprehensible: “Non-demoninational”) I chose to be a Catholic for the rest of the time that I was based there.
Why? They were the only ones who gave you plonk. I didn’t tell the paedophile priest that I was an atheist in their midst, and had not been ‘confirmed’. Fuck ‘em.
The vino was bloody aweful as well, but it sure beat counting ammo and filing gaiters.
I had to lie to get my rightful day off. But I figure that I was lying to a professional fraud and criminal liar in any case, so didn’t and still don’t feel too bad about it.
