Mormonism was not among the religions that lost official recognition by the Defense Department on Friday. But the new list of recognized faiths includes a category for Christian denominations, and Mormonism was placed outside that category
Jason Reed@jalefkowit what's really strange as no JW would ever be a member of the military. It is against their beliefs (source: I'm an ex-JW), they actually would rather be sent to prison than take an oath to a government of man. Also part of the reason they do not say the pledge of allegiance.
