Red State isn't the most reliable source. I've heard of this, but not from a reputable source.

There are plenty of other rumblings of this from various sources. It ain't popular to be Christian anymore. I fear for this country. Whether you believe in the Christian religion or not, I am seeing some things that definitely go against the Constitution's guarantee of free speech, freedom of religion, the right peacably to assemble, and of course, the Second Amendment.

Here's the other side of the story, including the letter the Military Religious Freedom Foundation sent to SECDEF -- just in case anyone's interested in hearing the opposite perspective.
