How in the Hell are you expected to win wars, when you can't even ask for the help of the One who decides the outcome?

Academy having a difficult time finding qualified leaders, last few not having much luck. For some it is a career ending stop.

"Americans United for the Separation of Church and State said it conducted an investigation at the academy that revealed the academy forced cadets to pray at certain functions..."

Not to worry. I doubt that the prayers of those "who are forced to pray" get any higher than the ceiling.

How do you "force somebody to pray"? Were there firearms involved, because I think there's a rule against the staff brandishing weapons at the cadets.

....he was cleared Wednesday was "using a religious communicative code to facilitate the proselytizing of non-Christian cadets."

Maybe he got some ideas from reading the bestseller?

How does an Evangelical Christian "improperly share his faith"? Isn't that like blaming a lion for roaring instead of meowing?

Is it permissable to share his faith in the Chapel? Or might that offend the hoards of Jewish and Muslim cadets? What about in the dormitory? If they have to leave the door open to preclude accusations of rape (policy at the academy) does that mean they're proselytizing to everyone that might happen to walk down the hall? Such problems these Christians are.... maybe they should just crucify them all to prevent them from spreading their beliefs.

New religious tolerance guidelines that clarify the rules have been issued by the Air Force. The guidelines are expected to become permanent later this year.

These are not "religious tolerance guidelines"; they are "intolerance of religion guidelines", sponsored by the least tolerant of government lackeys; inspired by the ACLU.

For seven humdred years mankind has been trying to put God to rest; who would have thought that it would take the actions of the indefensible guilty and the insecure innocent to slay him with Allah and political correctness?

Man doesn't really need a god as much as god needs man; the death of one is likely to be the death of all for tomorrow carries no promise.

"Last month the Senate dropped Weida off a list for military promotions...."

Who made that call?

accountable first to your God.



That sounds like an extremely PC harmless statement. Hey if your God is Sex, money, Jesus, not believing in God, whatever - be accountable to it.

Last month the Senate dropped Weida off a list for military promotions. The academy said his elevation to major general is still supported by the Air Force.

Having been cleared of all the charges against him, General Weida should be reinstated on the promotion list. Won't happen though.
