Air Force Academy recognizes Pagans, Wiccans, and Druids

<p>"The Air Force Academy has set aside an outdoor worship area for Pagans, Wiccans, Druids and other Earth-centered believers, school officials said Monday.</p>

<p>A double circle of stones atop a hill on the campus near Colorado Springs has been designated for the group, which previously met indoors."</p>

<p>This ought to be interesting. I particularly liked Mikey Weinstein’s swastika analogy…</p>

<p>anyone find it interesting that it was one of Weinstein’s men who found the cross, and not one of the people who uses the circle? i know Weinstein loves the attention, so i wouldn’t put it past him to have done this himself (or through one of his men) for the attention.</p>

<p>now if it wasn’t, then yes it’s wrong, and should probably be addressed sooner, but the location is at a location open to the public ground, and i haven’t talked to any cadets who knew about it until yesterday when Fox News carried the story.</p>

<p>So, who found it?
I’ve seen posts claiming the sgt. who helps run the Earth-Centered religious group was the first to find it. Is that the same person you are refering to, eagle?</p>

<p>the article says: On the weekend of Jan. 17, Weinstein said a client of his organization who is based at the academy spotted a cross, constructed of railroad ties, propped against a rock at the center. The client reported it, and the Office of Special Investigations began an inquiry.</p>

<p>Weinstein is not a pagan, and is organization is “supporting freedom of religion”. so it didn’t say someone who uses it, but rather one of his “clients”. could be poor reporting, but interesting tie regardless</p>

<p>I feel sorry for all the cadets right about now. Like they don’t have enough on their plates!</p>
