Another military religious intimidation incident

For refusing to attend a Christian band concert soldiers at Fort Eustis were reportedly confined to barracks.

That was in August, not long after the Air Force Academy elected to keep secret its 2010 religious climate survey which apparently indicated the tensions which boiled over this week into allegations of conservative Christian intimidation.

One writer found humor in the apparent decision of a few U.S. Army Transportation Corps soldiers to clean their barracks rather than "attend a concert by Christian 'rock' group Barlow Girl," writing, "Here is Barlow Girl (shudder):"

Still we know, don't we, that what we think of the music is, irrelevant.

Almost everyone remembers, don't they, that any application of military force to promote a religious view makes a mockery of freedom of religion.
