What happens when you foster a climate of hostility towards non-evangelicals and then engage in a cover-up, including firing the person who brought this to public attention?
Why, you get put up for promotion!
Mark Kleiman has the gory damned details.
I have talked ranted frothed almost incoherently about this at length here and here. Sorry for becoming such a self-referential schmuck in the last couple posts, but these are issues I have been following. Not that that is an excuse, but just so you know.
And just to get this out of the way, some interesting discussions on religion and politics here, here and here.

Congrats.
You have become the Jim Lampley of the “Vast Religous Conspiracy”.
Secret Decoder ring is in the mail.
John Cole
Exactly- other than the fact that everything I have said is true.

John: I second MunDane… Man, you have some serious anger towards Christians. Ease up some.
John Cole
Just how is being pissed at people mandating specific religious views at a military acadmey ‘anger towards Christians?’
My entire family is Christian. I just dislike foisting specific religion on other people.

John,
Just the ignore the previous poster/jesus freaks. Anytime anyone says anything negative about the religious fundamentalists and their drive toward a theocracy they whine and complain that they are discriminated against. It is lovely for these people to be christians… just don’t cram it down everyone’s throat. I, for one, appreciate most of what you write and feel the same way you do toward the JF’s! It’s funny how they are so sensitive yet have spent damn near every day of their lives discriminating and hating other people who are not just like them.
Shawn
I’m with John. I have some serious issues with some people trying to shove their values down everyone’s throats, whether they be Christian or Hare Krishna.

Such outrageous behavior! Sure glad no other special constituency ever, EVER acts that way.
Cordially…
Lazar
“Such outrageous behavior!”
Anti-semitism, discrimination against non-Christians… yes, sorry, it is.
Rick
Lazar,
Switching topics to the 21st Century Left are we, now?
Good, John has become tiresome on the risible “theocracy” threat.
Cordially…

It seems you are.
