'So Help Me God' Optional In Air Force Academy Honor Oath




What took them so long? Little ironic an entity whose ostensible purpose is to protect our freedoms has demonstrated such forced theocracy in the past, but good to know they've now gotten around to it:
'So Help Me God' Optional In Air Force Academy Honor Oath: DENVER -- DENVER (AP) — Air Force Academy cadets are no longer required to say "so help me God" at the end of the Honor Oath, school officials said Friday.

The words were made optional after a complaint from the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, an advocacy group, that they violated the constitutional concept of religious freedom.

Academy Superintendent Lt. Gen. Michelle Johnson said the change was made to respect cadets' freedom of religion.
