February 19, 2010: Weinstein… Athiest Champion

The Superintendent and the Air Force Inspector General’s office are perfectly capable of fielding and responding to any complaints of religious misbehavior in a proper military fashion without the interference of a political gadfly like Weinstein, who is out to forward his brand of secularism and promote himself as some sort of atheist champion.”

Yes, they are capable. How unfortunate that such actions were not taken in a timely manner, so that Mikey never had to get involved in the first place. Being capable and actually doing the job are two different things.

You’d disinvite Mikey, if you were the Superintendent of the AFA and Mikey’s life specifically threatened on the grounds of the AFA, as it actually was? Sounds rather cowardly, to me. Thankfully, the Superintendent and his guest both had the courage to go forward.

If you bothered to research Mikey and the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, you’d learn that Mikey espouses religious freedom for all, the vast majority of his supporters happen to be Christians, and 96% of the 16,300 military members who have come to him for protection against religious intolerance, so far, are Christians who were being harassed or threatened in some way for being “not Christian enough.” As far as I understand it, that would be a judgement for God, Himself, to make, and not a random human in military uniform who decides he is entitled to re-write Christianity and the Constitution in order to bully anyone else.
