After the service is over, the American Flag must again be placed in the prominent position." Source: U.S. Code, Title 4, Chapter 1, Section 7 A *church* pennant? That seems like a travesty. I know the navy has its superstitions, but really... Who said anything about the navy, dip****? Please. We know you are as dumb as a box of rocks, and you don't or can't read for comprehension. You obviously missed the paragraph above my remark, the one that mentioned "naval chaplains at sea for personnel of the Navy." Now, it's time for you to get in the sandbox with the other juvenile delinquent, JustSnot. Flags being flown on a boat does not mean it's a Navy boat, dip****. |

Now, grow some balls and answer the question. http://www.defense.gov/news/newsarticle.aspx?id=51077 What about atheists and agnostics? Do they get to have their flag flown above the US flag aboard ships when they aren't holding religious services? |

(USS Lester) The hut and reel with what looks like a black hose was actually a passive sonar system that was towed behind the ship listening for Soviet subs. Note the stern light. Gives an idea of the wave size. http://photos.bravenet.com/774/301/397/1E6907C556.jpg |

"again no" is again a wrong response You made some assumptions that show you are angry and out of control. You tried to frame your assumptions as a question. So go find someone else's balls to suck I'm not interested in humoring you. In summery, the Chaplains flag flies over the stars and stripes during church services. |

Fine, the old and stupid, here, can hold to their positions. I'll continue speaking to the young. Why didn't you say so instead of beating around the bush. You deserved to be summarily brushed off. Those folks can't fly flags because they don't have religions, they don't have religious symbols to put on flags and they don't conduct religious services. They are basically devoid of any beliefs so they don't have anything to wave a flag about anyway. |

That's about all the proof one needs to know he is isn't too bright. |
