One of the astronauts is Sunday school teacher and took the Bible up there with him as a comfort item. It was mentioned in the news already.

Surely you can see the difference between broadcasting a bible read from the module and him carrying that bible as a personal item. I certainly think there's a very stark difference between the two. I absolutely support people rights to whatever deeply held beliefs bring them comfort; I do not support him using his position literally and metaphorically atop a multi-billion dollar government project to proselytize.

I just wished people were more original in choosing beliefs to hold deeply instead of just subscribing to a multi-billinon dollar church that has multiple governments in their pockets.
