James Gill: War on religion in military a phony one

During a lull in the fighting, a Pfc. faced a serious allegation.
“Have you been proselytizing?”
“No, Sarge. I know I could be court-martialed for that. I was just exercising my right to evangelize.”
The sergeant opened a desk drawer and took a surreptitious look at a dictionary, but he still couldn’t figure out where to draw the line between proselytizing and evangelizing. Nothing to be ashamed of there. No mortal could negotiate such a linguistic minefield.
