Twice
This makes at least twice you have run this story as if the chaplain was mistreated by his denomination.
The fact is, the man was dishonest by association with a denomination that does not believe the way he believes. Southern Baptists take a Biblical view of homosexuality. Marriage is between a man and a woman for life.
To endorse otherwise is NOT Southern Baptist.
The chaplain is to be commended for leaving the denomination. If he is a casualty, he shot himself.
