In January, I covered the story of Maj. Andrew Calvert.
The U.S. Army chaplain recently perused a military newspaper’s Facebook page, whereupon he asked a question:
“How is rejecting reality (biology) not evidence that a person is mentally unfit (ill), and thus making that person unqualified to serve?”
He drew a connection to a different kind of denial:
“There is little difference in this than over those who believe and argue for a ‘flat earth’ despite the overwhelming evidence to the contrary.”
And he spoke of mental health:
“The motivation is different, but the argument is the same. This person is a MedBoard for Mental Wellness waiting to happen. What a waste of military resources and funding!”
