AIR FORCE REMOVES BIBLE VERSES

By Todd Starnes

The Air Force has suspended a course that was taught by chaplains for more than 20 years because the material included Bible passages.

The course, called “Christian Just War Theory” was taught by chaplains at Vandenberg Air Force Base and used scripture from both the Old and New Testaments to show missile launch officers that it can be moral to go to war.

But the Military Religious Freedom Foundation said the course violated the Constitutional Separation of Church and State. The organization was created to “directly battle the far-right militant radical evangelical fundamentalists” in the military.

The MRFF filed a complaint last Wednesday on behalf of 31 missile launch officers – both instructors and students.

Sigh.........and the bullshit continues, with the Air Force apologizing. I can think of some words for MRFF.

Just what we need, the ungodly with their fingers on the nuclear tipped missile launch buttons.
