#1 The notion that the Army is taking an anti-religion or anti-Christian stance is contrary to any of our policies, doctrines and regulations, said George Wright, Army spokesman at the Pentagon. Any belief that the Army is out to label religious groups in a negative manner is without warrant.

In Afghanistan the US military, per policy, burned bibles as trash in order to suppress the dissemination of their content.

Whether this is a legitimate policy and/or a smart political move is debatable.
In any case a perception of an 'anti-Christian stance' and of a 'negative labeling of Christianity' is objectively reasonable and NOT without warrant.

#3 Christians shouldn't be too concerned, we simply need to stop serving this state at this point in history. Let the atheists, pagans and Muslims do this stuff from here on out.

There's enough evidence already to support preachers teaching a new idea along these lines nationally.
