<\/a><\/center><\/p>\nA few weeks ago the mis-named Military Religious Freedom Foundation<\/a> and their founder, Air Force Academy grad, Mikey Weinstein has been complaining about cadets on the football team who took advantage of the freedom to practice their religion and prayed before a game. From the Chatanoogan<\/a>;<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s a disgrace. It\u2019s a putrid example of fundamentalist Christian supremacy, triumphalism and exceptionalism and it has to stop,\u201d Mr. Weinstein said.<\/p>\n \u201cThose individuals that are dressed in the Air Force uniform, that\u2019s their uniform of the day. They\u2019re members of the military and they are under different rules than the civilian counterparts they\u2019re playing on the field,\u201d he charged, causing the Air Force to immediately call for a Board of Inquiry.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Because the MFers aren’t about religious freedom at all. Well, just before Christmas, the Air Force Academy responded;<\/p>\n \u201cRecently the United States Air Force Academy received a complaint about its football players kneeling in prayer. An inquiry was initiated, which found the football players’ actions to be consistent with Air Force Instruction 1-1 and its guidance on the free exercise of religion and religious accommodation.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThe United States Air Force Academy will continue to reaffirm to cadets that all Airmen are free to practice the religion of their choice or subscribe to no religious belief at all,\u201d academy officials said in the statement. \u201cThe players may confidently practice their own beliefs without pressure to participate in the practices of others.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
