Lessons learned.

In other news, the VA continues to discriminate against dead pagans. Soldier's families have been petitioning for official Pentagram grave markers for at _least_ the past 7 years; meanwhile, they've approved emblems for religious minorities so small that statistically, there might not even _be_ any of them in the military. They've even got an official Atheist symbol available, though I think the "Humanist Emblem of Spirit" looks cooler, I woulda gone with that one if I had died horribly over in the Stupid And Sandy Place. I can only conclude that this is religious prejudice on the part of the evangelical christians who make up such a disproportionate part of our military. Jerks.
