Actually, the military recognizes Wicca, Native American, Satanism
(Crowley's blend if memory serves) and other religions (I'm *not* going to
debate their validity here, that's a horse of a different color), but their
services are run by recognized "lay readers" as opposed to chaplains that
are solely in the military as ministers.

The ship that I was on (USS George Washington, CVN-73) had Jewish, Native
American, Wiccan and (again, if I remember correctly) Hindi lay readers, but
only Protestant and Catholic chaplains.
