    Default Knox Religious Services questions

    I was wondering if it is considered rude to attend the services of a religion different than your own. I'm interested in seeing first hand how Islam is conducted in the military setting. I'm not a bigot or anything of that sort. My highschools faculty was mostly Sunni Muslims and I have had nothing but positive experiences with the Muslim community so far.

    I have never seen curiosity as rudeness. Talk to the Muslim Chaplain and ask him.

    Exactly. I have experience every domination there is to offer (except Muslim).

    The military chain of command won't care, but the Muslim community might. I strongly recommend engaging your unit chaplain with this question. You don't want to cause an incident accidentally. If you do go visit a Muslim service, go with a friend who is an actual Muslim who can give you guidance, and keep you from offense.
