Attorneys for an atheist soldier at Fort Riley said Monday they plan to amend their lawsuit against the Department of Defense to include new allegations about evangelizing in combat.
The evidence is in videos discovered by the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, which along with Spc. Dustin Chalker is suing Secretary Robert Gates over alleged violations of religious rights.
Chalker, an atheist, claims he has been forced to attend mandatory military formations where Christian prayers are given.
The videos show soldiers and Christian missionaries talking about their faith and the desire to spread Christianity to Muslims. The video also shows the missionaries, who were embedded with units, handing out Dari language Bibles.
“What we’re putting in is shocking,” said Mikey Weinstein, president of the foundation.
