Attacking Pat Tillman's family on their Christianity
Look how much goddamned ink ESPN(!?!?!?) gives to the claims that
Kauzlarich, the source of these statements, was "regiment executive officer in Afghanistan, making him ultimately responsible for the conduct of the fateful operation in which Pat Tillman died."
He was also the one who conducted the first investigation of Tillman's death.
ESPN should be ashamed.

"the Tillman family's unhappiness with the findings of past investigations might be because of the absence of a Christian faith in their lives."

I don't think that ESPN should be ashamed at all; the LTC, yes, but ESPN should be lauded for bringing to light what is really an appalling (and probably widespread) mindset.

Yeah, I'll give you that point. I'm willing to accept the argument.
My issue with this is that they terat this as an argument/counter argument thus implying that it's actually a valid point of debate, as if it could be true.
It would be like me saying the sky is green, having me debate someone who says it is blue, and then at the end saying, well, this one is still unresolved.
