Does it take 4 concreate walls and roof to be a church? Or does it take a person/Chaplan to instill what the meaning of that day is?

These last 2 quotes? You are contradicting yourself.....you say your friend has not been to church in "I-don't-know-how-long" which to me means he does NOT have a church but there is a church on post.

Then you say that a field problem would not come close for a substitute of worship time in his or her own church....If he or she has not been to chuch then how does he/she have a church and know what to expect...

Anyway what I'm saying is if he/she has not been to church as long as you say they have not been, then as long as he/she get the word on Easter Sunday, does it really matter if it is in a tent or does it have to be in a concreate building?

I'm sure she meant he hasn't attended Church services, not that he hasn't had the opportunity; now we're getting into the type of discussion that needs to move into the Politics & Religion Forum >>>>>********************************************* *************Any replies please go there>>>>>>

Ah-hah -- as I suspected! Thanks!

(Sorry, I haven't figured out this quoting thing quite yet....)

Ssnapier -- I have no idea what OKC is, so the answer must be no! lol

Chucksnee -- No contradictions.... In one case I was speaking about my friend, and in the other, speaking of anyone in general. And no, it sure doesn't matter if it's a tent or anything ... it's just the content I was referring to. But I won't say anymore about that since this is the military forum.... I'll just say I'm glad there will be a service on field!
