US Air Force Academy Flyin’ Low

Mishmash.

There are few universities in the United States where the name of God is held in anything but ridicule.  God, I’m proud to say, is a has-been, a memory from yesteryear, a time long, long ago before science made smart men, and smart men made wise men, and wise men forgot God.  What a wonderful world I’ve created not only ex nihilo, but from an opposite world, like pulling victory out of the Lions own mouth of defeat.

Among the few university holdouts to my will on earth have always been the American military academies, those bastions of discipline and integrity, where those in charge know the world is not a chalkboard for theorizing, but a battlefield for defending, physically, mentally, as well as spiritually. 

For years even I thought the military academies might be a lost cause for my kingdom.

But never fear, my servants.  I never tire.  And I’m proud to announce today what I’ve kept quiet for some time now.  As Fox News reports in an article entitled, “US Air Force Academy Plans Worship Area for Earth-Centered Religions,” the “U.S. Air Force Academy is in the final stages of planning a worship area for followers of Earth-centered religions, including Wicca and Druidism, near its landmark chapel.

Did you get that, my servants?  Wicca and Druidism will now have a place to practice their “earth-centered religions.”

Ha ha ha ha ha.

I won!

Do you know what we call Wiccans and Druids down here?

Future tenants.

I love Wiccans and Druids.  I’ve written about Wiccans here, and Druids here.  The Wiccans disappoint me because they say they don’t believe in me, but I’ll still welcome them home some day.  And both “earth-centered religions”  please me by focusing on creation rather than the creator.  As I’ve said:

I absolutely love it when one created being looks plainly at the invisible qualities of the creator, but nevertheless refuses to give thanks, and his or her heart becomes darkened.  I see it first hand every day, and it warms my darkened heartless soul.  The pattern is repeated over and over:  claiming to be wise, the religionists I love exchange the glory of the immortal one I hate for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.  (Reptiles are the best.)

The Air Force is calling this circle of rocks a “chapel” called Falcon Circle.  According to the Air Force Academy website, Falcon Circle was dedicated today:

The Falcon Circle came into existence through the efforts of a former cadet wing chaplain, Chap. William Ziegler and former Earth-Centered Spirituality Faith Group leader, Tech Sgt. Brandon Longcrier, who is currently deployed.

Earth-Centered Spirituality Faith Group?  Really?  Is that a mishmash of post-modern mushy feelgood nonsense, or what?  What kind of “spirit” and what kind of “faith” my friend?  I got news for you — the earth has no spirit, and absent God there is no faith to form a group around. 

But, who am I to judge?  Listen to this claptrap (you will have to smile with me on this one):

“Through Sergeant Longcrier’s dedication and commitment and the help and support of the U.S. Air Force, cadets of our faith group and kindred souls have a place to worship and commune with the divine in this beautiful, natural setting, “said Dr. Oringderff.

Kindred souls?  Commune with the divine?  Um, Wiccans and Druids don’t believe in a divine.  And although they probably don’t know it, if the earth is all there is, they also don’t have souls.  But, of course, they have merely bought into my lie; in their heart they know they have souls, and their souls have some connection to the Divine. 

Do you know what we call those who reject the plain evidence of souls and the Divine to whom souls owe an eternal responsibility?

Future tenants.

Of course, not everyone is as pleased a Dr. Oringderff and I over the stone circle at the Air Force Academy.  According to the Fox News article:

Father Jonathan Morris calls the decision, “politically correct cowardice by bumbling bureaucrats,” adding, “behind the smoke and mirrors of the supposed high demand for ‘Earth worship prayer circles’ is a small group of activist atheists in America who seek first to water-down and then to abolish the name and face of God from the public square.”

And who’s behind the small group of atheist activists?

Ha ha ha ha ha.

My religious freedom in action

Posted in political correctness, religion, toleration with tags , , on January 24, 2011 by devilbloggger

Bandwagon.

Hey, my servants, want to jump on a bandwagon?  This one is playing my tune.  I love it when someone of my ilk trumpets “religious freedom” but in fact is advocating the exact opposite.  And do you know what?  It works!  Those bred in modern relativist cultures today have little mental agility or intellectual ability to see through such nonsense, and this global mental numbness works only to my favor.

I can hear the music now.

This time, the sound of delicious irony playing in the air comes from today’s AP story entitled “Academy critic calls for superintendent’s firing.”  That’s the United States Air Force Academy, and the superintendent is a mere Lt. General named Mike Gould.  That’s three stars, for those of you not up with the US military’s levels of its highest rank.  What did this poor three-star general do that received calls for his firing?  The old chap crossed all boundaries of political correctness and invited–get this–a Christian to speak at a voluntary prayer luncheon.  Yes, you heard right–what was the good general thinking?

I know, my servants, I know.   And not just any Christian, but a wounded Vietnam veteran who is an evangelical Christian and now says he’s in the “Lord’s Army” (blechhh!). 

Where’s the bandwagon, you ask?

Well, it starts with a very tolerant group that can’t tolerate evangelical Christians, and goes by the misleading and totally dishonest (hey, I love it!) title of  the Military Religious Freedom Foundation.  Yes, my servants, you read that right–an organization purporting to be for religious freedom is publicly calling for General Mike Gould’s ouster because General Gould is exercising his (and other’s) religious freedom in the military.  Now there’s some toleration for you!

Isn’t this just perfect harmony?  I couldn’t have written a better score.  Well, actually I did write this music, but I’m surprised anyone is playing it, and listening to it!

And it gets better, my friends.  It seems that the Military Freedom from Christian Religion Foundation’s Mikey (awe!) Weinstein’s reasoning is that General Gould’s exercise of religious freedom in the military cannot be tolerated because:

“[T]he choice of Marine 1st Lt. Clebe McClary shows superintendent Lt. Gen. Mike Gould is tilted toward evangelical Christianity and tolerates an environment where proselytizing is accepted.”

And, as we all know, religious freedom cannot tolerate someone else tolerating a Christian environment.  Yes, my servants, we must be intolerant toward any tolerance toward Christianity, because, in today’s world “religious freedom” means freedom to shut God out of the public square, to keep Christians from talking anywhere, and to generally be antagonist toward all things Godly. 

But little Mikey (awe!) goes even further.  According to little Mikey (awe!) the Military Freedom from Religion Foundation stands for the following brilliant proposition:

When one proudly dons a U.S. Military uniform, there is only one religious symbol: the American flag.  There is only one religious scripture: the American Constitution.  Finally, there is only one religious faith; American patriotism.

And that’s religious freedom, little Mikey (awe!)?  “only one” this; “only one” that, and “only one” the other?

Ha ha ha ha ha.

No, little Mikey (awe!), that’s religious bondage.

Not that there’s anything wrong with that! 

In fact, I like it.

Jump on the Religious Freedom bandwagon, my friends, and stop religious freedom whenever it looks remotely like Christianity.  And for my American friends, do not write in support of General Gould, but donate to little Mikey (awe!) and help little Mikey (awe!) stop all religions but his (and my) own.
