More religious intolerance at the Air Force Academy

More in the papers about the rampant religious intolerance at the Air Force Academy. The Denver Post, Rocky Mountain News, and New York Times all have similar stories about the firing of an Air Force chaplain who dared challenge the evangelical leaders at the school.
Proselytizing by evangelical Christian leaders is a systemic problem at the Air Force Academy, a chaplain who helped create the school's religious tolerance program said Thursday. Capt. Melinda Morton, 48, a Lutheran minister, said she is speaking out because she believes strongly that the religious bias at the academy should be corrected.
I have a solution for correcting the religious bias at the Air Force Academy. Let's move it out of Colorado Springs and the reach of James Dobson and Focus on the Family. And, this is just my opinion here, but does anyone else see a link between last year's Air Force Academy rape scandals, and this year's scandals of religious intolerance and bias and widespread proselytizing?
