Army Chaplain in Iraq Reortedly Trades Water for Baptism

[Chaplain Josh] Llano, a Southern Baptist, recently told a Knight Ridder reporter that he makes soldiers sit through a 90-minute sermon and then take part in baptismal services in a 500-gallon container used only for baptisms. Rudd said many of the soldiers had gone up to 10 days without a shower.

In the story, which appeared in newspapers throughout the country, Llano said the soldiers willingly agreed to his terms. Said Llano in the story: "It's simple. They want water. I have it, as long as they agree to get baptized."

I thought Baptists didn't believe in water baptism. Anyway, I think this guy was just joking around. The separation of church and state drones need to lighten up and unwad their panties.
