How Did This Fly?

With so many military concerns in the news this week, the decision was made to make sure we get a greater understanding of the changes being made.  Our military is really changing and challenging what has been accepted as status quo for years.  Here's a couple of changes in the Air Force.

The following article dated November of 2011, was entitled as follows, featured the image and began the article by giving the cost to build this structure.

Pagan stone circle built at US Air Force training academy
The US military has built a stone circle in its Air Force academy to give pagans, druids and witches somewhere to practice their religion.

>>The Colorado base has spent around £50,000 building the Stonehenge-like structure to allow witches to cast spells, and pagans to form "circles of power" by night.<<

Farther into the article, it is revealed that this costly project accommodates what is believed to be three out of 4,300 cadets who have openly declared themselves to be pagan.  With this kind of logic, it's easy to see why our defense budget is so costly . . .

The following statement was included toward the end of the article.   
>>>The air force says the site is to help to protect the constitutional right to religious freedom. <<<

In an article dated less than 2 years later, with the following title, these three quotes were taken  . . .
Air Force Censors Chaplain Over 'No Atheists in Foxholes' Essay

>>>Five hours after the complaint was received, Reyes' essay was taken down "out of respect for those who considered its title offensive," Duffy told Fox News.

>>>Duffy also wrote an email to the foundation saying, "While certainly not intended to offend, the article has been removed from our website. We remain mindful of the governing instructions on this matter and will work to avoid recurrence." 

The article closed with the following quote . . .
>>>Klukowski, a senior fellow for religious liberty at the Family Research Council, quoted his colleague, retired Lt. Gen. Jerry Boykin, who said, "A chaplain has been censored for expressing his beliefs about the role of faith in the lives of service members. Why do we have chaplains if they aren't allowed to fulfill that purpose?"   Full Article @ Newsmax

In reading both of these linked articles from the perspective of a volunteer military that we say protects our freedom, I just shook my head in disbelief.  Then I thought this sort of "logic" would best be expressed in political/religious parody.
              So to quote the SNL Church Lady . . . "Now isn't this SPECIAL!"
