We interviewed Ambassador Thorman, who assured us that there was absolutely nothing to worry about

ohh don't even get me started on the "judeo-christian" bullshit, it's entirely just christian fundamentalism slapping "judeo-" in front of itself to try and paint a thin veneer of unity against the rest of the world's religions without actually drawing from jewish thought at all
yep this one really comes out swinging before you even click on the spoiler
i mean, strictly speaking, Islam is based on Judeo-Christian values as well.
yep, but the people saying "judeo-christian" don't want to acknowledge that, because that would reveal the term for the incoherent nonsense it is
that and "judeo-christian values" is invariably invoked to justify explicit endorsement of christianity in ostensibly secular liberal institutions, despite secular liberalism being largely developed in opposition to religious involvement in state. for example, this line of argument was used by conservatives when the Australian Greens proposed that maybe we don't need to open every sitting of Parliament with the Lord's Prayer.
Last time "Christian" and "Military" were used in the same sentence, it did not end well for anyone.
isn't the Air Force notorious for being full of evangelicals? no surprise it's an air force guy proposing it.
