Last spring Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Peter Pace called homosexuality “immoral,” arguing that “the military should ‘not tolerate’ homosexuality just as it rejects ‘military members who sleep with other military members’ wives.”

Today he reaffirmed his belief that homosexuality is immoral and said that the United States should not “condone activity that, in my upbringing, is counter to God’s law.” Pace added:

“I would be very willing and able and supportive” to changes to the policy “to continue to allow the homosexual community to contribute to the nation without condoning what I believe to be activity — whether it to be heterosexual or homosexual — that in my upbringing is not right.”
