The pentagon has defended pete hegseth's use of a prayer that resembles a monologue from the movie "pulp fiction" at a worship service. The prayer in question appears to be a quote from the film, which is not an actual bible verse, and was used by hegseth in a way that has been reported as citing it as a bible verse. The context and specifics of the incident, including hegseth's intentions and the pentagon's explanation, are not entirely clear.
