Ex-officer Michael Weinstein described the public prayers as an 'outrage'
He claims Air Force Academy football players are forced to participate
Weinstein insists display of Christianity could be used for ISIS propaganda
A former U.S. Air Force officer has branded the ritual of military football players kneeling in prayer a âputridâ example of âChristian supremacyâ and demanded it must stop.
Michael Weinstein, president and founder of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF), insisted the public prayers so often seen on the football pitch before games are a scandalous outrage.
He said Air Force Academy football players had approached the MRFF claiming they were forced into joining the prayers, for fear of punishment.

And if a towelhead whipped out a prayer rug and bowed down to his god of neckslicing, it would be praised.
