Fresnel Horrified Survivor Fresnel Das Rabble Rouser I could see how this would be a problem if the verses were printed on the lens in such a way that it obscured vision, but if it's on the housing or something get the ******** over it. Cover it with whiteout or a sharpie or something. It's not even the actual verse, it's the book name and line/verse numbers. I can kind of sympathize with them in one way. They're fighting a holy war here. If they have evidence that we are too, no matter how thin, then they'll become all that more persuasive in their PR campaigns. This war isn't just about the soldiers, it's about the civilians, too. It's best we keep them civilians; we don't need to be recruiting for the other side. At some point, you've got to make a stand. And that point hasn't been raised at all, apparently. It's just about atheist militants Freaking out that the government is spending money on something vaguely religious. It's by the same people who want to take "In God we trust" off of our money. Not a strategic move. Oh yeah, like the cost changes any if you take six engraved characters of the side of a five-hundred-dollar ACOG. The Taliban is already trying to convince the world that we're fighting a holy war. This is just giving them ammunition.
What's the difference if we're fighting a holy war? Last time I checked they were killing us because we don't worship Allah, and we're killing them right back, in spades I might add.
War of politics, religion, money, power, who cares? All I say is we ought to either win or pull out. And if the serial numbers of ACOG sights give out warriors anything from divine protection to even the must subtle psychological boost, then that's awesome.

MILITARY ITSELF pissed. Possibly violated some regulations. They caved, of course, because that 67MIL contract was worth it.
Ironically, IT WASN'T A MILITANT ATHIEST WHO CAUSED THE PROBLEM. It was a lawyer who has never named his religion (but I have a sneaking sense that it is "whatever the ******** gets me more money at the point I'm asked"-ism.), and happened to scroll across the information on some forum or google search, and decided he might cause a stink (AKA IRL Trolling).
The trolling of Athiests piss me off more than the Athiests. I also know more militant Christians than Athiests, Agnostics, or even Satanists (no, Mr. Boomingvoice, I'm not going to hell, nor am I cursed, nor does your god trump mine. Shut the ******** up and leave the rest of us alone--if we want to be Christians, we'll come to you.). The Athiests only speak up when Mr. Boomingvoice pops his head in ranting about us going to hell, the Agnostics never speak up, and the Satanists are some of the nicest people I've met. Leveyan Satanism, I should clarify, which doesn't really believe in Satan. It's actually an Atheistic belief, that uses "Satan" as a symbol standing for basic human nature.

A LeVeyan-to-straight-Athiesm convert friend of my trolled Jehova's Witnesses who came to his house. It involved a ketchup pentagram on a table, the puppies in the back room barking at just the right time, and his Book of Satan (He could have pulled a troll with just about any religion--he's read damn near every religious text front to back and owns copies of most of them.).
