Aim High

It's surprising to me that the BSC's are in position to cause a problem at the Air Force Academy. Then again, the school has become famous for sex scandals involving rape. Hmm.. religious fundamentalism and sexual "issues". Am I sensing a trend here?

AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo. (AP) -- Less than two years after it was plunged into a rape scandal, the Air Force Academy is scrambling to address complaints that evangelical Christians wield so much influence at the school that anti-Semitism and other forms of religious harassment have become pervasive.

There have been 55 complaints of religious discrimination at the academy in the past four years, including cases in which a Jewish cadet was told the Holocaust was revenge for the death of Jesus and another was called a Christ killer by a fellow cadet.

Yes, indeed. Fun with religion day at Tom's blog. It's nice to see we have fundamentalist whackos at our prestigious military academies. I always am amused when Christian's think they're being "attacked". I laugh like mad when they rant about the Muslim's wanting to destroy all the infidels.

Here's a wake up call you stupid fuckers. You are exactly the same. Take it from a guy who has no dog in this hunt, I don't give a fuck about mainstream religions, but I sure can observe it from the outside. Your perception is just as fucked as the Muslim fundis, but you just don't know it.

You are exactly the same.

Lets continue on and see how these upstanding Christian men in uniform behave, shall we?

"There were people walking up to someone and basically they would get in a conversation and it would end with, `If you don't believe what I believe you are going to hell,'" Vice Commandant Col. Debra Gray said.

Priceless! Even at the AF Academy we have BSC's.

Since we have a new Star Wars movie coming up, we can relate the point of view. I reminded of the scene from Return of the Jedi. Luke is watching his alliance friends being destroyed. The Emperor says "good.. I can feel your anger".

Under it all, the fundis seethe exactly the same way.

Those that are confident don't need to overtly express themselves. The fundis feel the need to because deep down, they know they are out of their fucking minds. They reach out to non-freaks because if they can convince one person, that further validates their own point of view. If a person balks at the insanity, the fundi's core mental process is attacked, and they lash out with a "you're going to hell", or worse.

Tell me I'm going to hell. I'll tell you I'll bring beer, you bring the pizza.

But wait - there's more..

"They are deliberately trivializing the problem so that we don't have another situation the magnitude of the sex assault scandal. It is inextricably intertwined in every aspect of the academy," said Mikey Weinstein of Albuquerque, N.M., a 1977 graduate who has sent two sons to the school. He said the younger, Curtis, has been called a "filthy Jew" many times.

I -finally- figured out the solution to world peace. I knew it would come to me eventually.

Take all the Muslim fundamentalist, and all the Christian fundamentalists, and put them on one big island together. Make sure you leave a whole bunch of guns lying around. Then, check back on them about a year later. Problem solved.
