Civil Rights Triumph over Bigotry at Air Force Academy
Via the Military Religious Freedom Foundation:
By (name, United States Air Force Academy (USAF) faculty position, USAF Academy faculty department withheld)
Today, I heard the most astonishing words from an Air Force Academy Superintendent that I have ever heard in my entire 16 years as an Academy professor. Quoting from a well-known 1997 United States Air Force report, Lt Gen Mike Gould, Superintendent of the US Air Force Academy, actually said in a Commander’s Call addressed to the entire permanent population of the base that “military officers shouldn’t push their religious views on subordinates”. My jaw dropped in astonishment. This man clearly “gets it”. My elation was tempered only by the sad fact that it took multiple Superintendents and several years of painful turmoil for us to finally get a top guy in here who clearly sensed that the environment was right to say something so blatantly obvious and true to every single person here at the Air Force Academy.
I sadden only when I realize that two years from now, this Air Force Academy Superintendent will retire, we will have a different USAF Chief of Staff, and the process of training yet another chain of command must begin anew. Who knows what we will get. That means, Mikey, that you and the MRFF must be vigilant. You must be vigilant, and you must have staying power. The forces you so appropriately and aggressively oppose here at the Air Force Academy, and indeed all over the Department of Defense, think in terms of eternity, so four years between Academy Superintendents is nothing to them. Please, Mikey and MRFF, be there for an eternity too.
There is only one plausible explanation that can account for the dramatic sea change I have witnessed here at USAFA. That explanation is you, Mikey, and the efforts of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation. Without your unceasing and courageous refusal to stand by while good people do nothing, it would have been ”religiously unconstitutional” business as usual. The school I love that defends the country I love would have continued to be a happy hunting ground for fundamentalist Christian whack jobs, using their military rank or related seniority as a weapon and convinced that they were wandering in an unrestricted Elysian mission field of unchurched souls targeting as many vulnerable cadets and staff as possible for conversion.

Sounds like the author has more than a little religious or anti-religious bigotry going on him or herself. Another case of the pot calling the kettle black.

I post Mikey’s stuff because unlike the Sarah Palin Christianite, Israel-no- matter-what crowd, the Military Relgious Freedom Foundation (MRFF) works for any man and woman’s freedom to worship (or not) in the American military.
Most of the people who go the MRFF for help are Christians, just the wrong kind–not evangelical, not anti-Semitic, not here-comes-doom types that prevail in the military.
It’s no conincidence that the ADL and the Likud Party make common cause with the Christian Zionists who were identified by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) as extremists assaulting tolerance and pluralism in America a mere 16 years ago.
I wonder if you realize how bat-crazy Israel has become.See: http://malcontends.blogspot.com/2007/09/religious-right-figures-signing-pro-war.html
Does he know anyone from the ADL ??
Dr. Auguste Rohling, Professor of the
University of Prague, learned the Hebrew language in order to
translate the Talmud. The following are some of his findings:-
i. The soul of the Jew is part of God himself; the souls of the other
peoples come from the Devil and resemble those of brutes.
ii. Domination over other peoples is the right of Jews alone.
iii. Awaiting the coming of the Messiah the Jews live in a state of
continual war with other peoples.
iv. When the victory of the Jew is won the other people will accept
the Jewish religion; only the Christians will not be given this
priviledge, but will be exterminated because they belong to the
Devil.
v. A Jew is of the substance of God; a Gentile who strikes him
deserves death.
vi. Non-Jews are created to serve Jews.
vii. A Jew is forbidden to show mercy to his enemies.
viii. A Jew may be a hypocrite to a non-Jew.
ix. To despoil a non-Jew is permitted.
x. If anyone returns to a Christian something which he has lost,
God will not pardon him.
xi. God has ordained that the Jew shall take usury from the non-
Jew to injure him.
xii. The best of the non-Jews should be exterminated. The honest
life of the Gentile should be an objective of hate.
xiii. If a Jew can deceive a Gentile by pretending to be a non-Jew he
is permitted to do so.

In a recent conversation, Mikey bragged how a punk wouldn’t shut up in a movie. When a confrontation ensued and the man took a wild swing, Mikey put him down. None of this is surprising. Weinstein boxed during his Air Force days,
A trained boxer brags how someone by his own words ( took a wild swing),
mikey “put him down”,
gee Mikey ,did you get up all in some guys face because you wanted to
provoke him ??
so you could beat up another “unchosen” ??
again ??
55 years old ?? , grow up ??
You guys have a general personality type,
your Sociopaths/psychopaths
As a guess,Mikey goes out & looks for “marks” he is confident he can take down,
He goes out and finds people he can beat up,
MIKEY YOU ARE THE PUNK & A BULLY
Mikey’s no pacifist. Aggression rises up in his voice like a white shark’s fin breaks the waves.
TALMUDIC SATANIC HATRED OF ALL HUMANS,
TALMUDIC SATANIC HATRED OF ALL HUMANS,
WHAT THE TALMUDISTS DID TO CHRISTIAN WOMEN & CHILDREN DURING
THE RUSSIAN REVOLUTION ??
HOW THE TALMUDISTS WREAKED SOCIO-ECONOMIC HAVOC ON THE GERMAN PEOPLE ??
ALL THE TENS OF MILLIONS YOU HAVE BEEN MURDERING FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS??
Go ahead admit it ,
TALMUDISM,
You worship Baal and it’s okay to rape gentile Children right ??
In the well known Talmud suit which was heard in Nuremberg
in November, 1931, the legal expert and authority on the Talmud,
Dr. Erich Bischoff, confirmed under oath the following law of the
Talmud:-
“A Gentile girl who is three years and one day of age can be
violated.” (Abodah Sara 37a.)
He said that this law occurred repeatedly in the Talmud. He
had asked a Rabbi, and he confirmed without hesitation the
correctness of this part of the law.
Judaism is not a normal adversary, it is an exceptional recrudescence of the guile synthesized from the accumulated intelligence of the eternal pagan psychodrama on which it is based. One of the most refractory intellectual and practical difficulties that scholars of integrity face in the post-modernist era is deciding how to apply to Judaism the same critical scrutiny to which Christianity and Islam are subjected, without being defamed as a “hater.”
The completion of my book Judaism Discovered: A Study of the Anti-Biblical Religion of Racism, Self-Worship, Superstition and Deceit gives me the satisfaction of knowing that I have accomplished one of the principal missions of my life. It is the actualization of thoughts and lines of inquiry which I have been pursuing for years. For example, Who is a Jew? What is the role of counterfeit “Jews”? If the counterfeit is predominant, then this fact opens a revolutionary vista on history, signifying that contemporary Talmudists and Zionists are descendants of people who were not in Palestine when Jesus was crucified. They are representatives of the ideology that crucified Christ, but in general, not the race. This fact in turn disarms the race-based antipathy of the opponents of Talmudists and Zionists, a racial animus upon which, ironically, the rabbis and the Israelis depend for the continued allegiance of their own am ha’aretz.
To repeat:
Most of the people who go the MRFF for help are Christians, just the wrong kind–not evangelical, not anti-Semitic, not here-comes-doom types that prevail in the military.
It’s no conincidence that the ADL and the Likud Party make common cause with the Christian Zionists who were identified by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) as extremists assaulting tolerance and pluralism in America a mere 16 years ago.
perhaps , Looking into MRFF a little more completely
would be interesting ,Always willing to understand more
in a complete manner .

This school was a public relations disaster for the US Air Force.
Mike,
As a fellow graduate of this fine institution, I have to tell you that it is rare to see people “push” their religious beliefs on subordinates.
What is (and was) far more common is for people to squelch what little free speech rights exist in the military in the name of political correctness, of which this is a prime example.
Gen. Gould is correct, we should not push our religous beliefs “down the throats” of our subordinates, however, you should not push your “you can’t talk about your religious beliefs” PC BS down other’s as well.
The left is simple. Free speech for all, except for those with views different or challenging to ours. You, my friend, are a prime example.
So you become exactly what you purport to eliminate. One who pushes his religious views down the throats of others, in this case by force of regulation.
If there is no god, as you believe, why are you threatened by those in the military who (such as George Washington) who hold such beliefs? One cannot order another to believe anything.
So please don’t push the pendulum toward the persecution of Christians, of which “silence – you can’t say that” is a form of persecution since the command from our God is to tell others about him. To restrict our speech is to persecute us.
Respectfully submitted,
c.
Practice whatever you want to believe.
The problem arises when there becomes an establishment, an entanglement of religion and government, or any trust thereof including the military.
As the U.S. Constitution states in Article VI, section 3:
“… but no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States.’
Maybe a repeal or amendment is in order like what is advocated for the 14th amendment that lets all those darkies vote, marry and received all that equal protection stuff.
