Air Force chaplain exposes pro-Christian bias at AF Academy

A chaplain at the Air Force Academy in one of the nation's most fundie-packed cities, Colorado Springs, confirmed allegations that academy staff commonly used its influence over cadets and academy programs to push a pro-Christian message. Saying she was speaking without authorization from the school or the Air Force, she acknowledged that speaking out means "the end of my Air Force career." For more on the situation, read this report from Americans United for Separation of Church and State.

Update: The chaplain said, in a May 12 story, that she had been fired for speaking out.
