Religious Zealots run amok at Air Force Academy

Not too long ago it was sex scandals all the rage at the AFA in Colorado. Now it seems the christian spawn have taken over the barracks and chow halls of Air Force Academia according to

Anti-semitism is on the rise as the Christ Like are throwing around their muscle. Let me go out out on a limb here. More than 90% of those enrolled in the academy say they are Christian. Would it be fair to say that many zealots were involved in the sex scandals? Yes I paint with a very broad brush, usually with at least two coats.

5. come clean with Jesus, and it doesn't matter what you do to mortals

...especially not mere females.

This is the inherent flaw with Christianity: the principal goal of the individual is saving his/her own ass. What one does to others matters a bit, but not really; if they're straight with the big power, they'll be fine, and if not, well then fuck 'em.

It's all a handy form of self absolution, and the world only really exists between you and your creator; those other pesky organisms just muddy the waters. Self self self: it's the soul of conservatism.

2. Call them Christian Supremists

It's time to start calling these groups by their proper name. They are no different than White Supremists. Frist, Delay, Boykin and the like are all Christian Supremists.
