"The Marines I have seen around the world have the cleanest bodies, the filthiest minds, the highest morale, and the lowest morals of any group of animals I have ever seen. Thank God for the United States Marine Corps!" Elanor Roosevelt

I was a U.S Marine "grunt' (enlisted) from 2001 to 2005 I found that in my case Marine infantry was by far less religious than civilian americans. I dont remember 1 time when religion came up much less service members preaching. I was nver told that i had to pray or anything, i was never scolded for not bowing my head during prayer or anything remotely close. I do remember most of us would make fun of religion and bible thumpers, very very few went to church ....if you ever witnessed a mass before a battle in Iraq theres like 8 guys and the chaplin lol that tells you something, whoever said there arn't Atheists in foxholes...........We did have a Mormon Commanding Officer (who everyone hated because he was such a square) he wouldn't let anyone swear in his presence, which pissed everyone off because every other word in the Marines is F***k. But from my experence it was quiet the opposite of what some Atheists on this site might believe
