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.

After all, we're the ones with the guns and the ammunition. I'm sure that the Left will understand. After all, might makes right, and we have the power.
Socialism has murdered 170,000,000 in the last 100 years. They will understand when we finally respond, with all of our power. They want to scrap Christianity. That Ol' Unintended Consequence. Do you think they know it's the only thing keeping them alive?
But going a$$hole-up on a prayer rug - that’d be A-OK.
Someone has to say it: Michael Weinstein is a miserable, low-life atheist f*** who isn’t worth a tinker’s f*rt.
Mikey is fighting “Christian SUPREMACY” - as an atheist, he is just fine with everything else having its day in the sunshine.
Yes.
This is British publication. An American one would say “field” instead of “pitch”, I think.
Disgusting.
I love that painting.
It seems these days all one has to do is form a “foundation,” and a press conference, and, voila! - his word means something. The ‘foundation’ doesn’t really have to have any significant amount of members or donors or even supporters. Just give your ‘foundation’ a title and you’re set. Note, he’s a White House advisor, but that isn’t mentioned. I think this is also the same guy who sued because he was ‘bullied’ by “Christian Superiority” during his basic training. Full time victim here.
I think Abraham Lincoln knows more about it than this guy does.
Love it.
In 1965 in Lockport, Louisiana when we went on the field our coach of our High School Team would go on the field with us before the game. He would give us a pep talk to play hard and fair. We would all be in a huddle and he would lead us in a short prayer.
At that same High School many of the students would have shotguns in their cars if they were lucky enough to have a car. We would go hunting after school during hunting season. The cops knew this and the principal knew this. They could see the weapons in the gun racks in our pickups.
None of us would have ever considered using those weapons in an illegal manner. Today you would have a SWAT SQUAD if this was done. Times have changed and not for the better.
Atheists are the children of Marx, and the enemies of America.
I will vote for anyone that promises to fire Mikey on the first day in office.
It would be nice to get a reproduction to frame and hang on the wall.
