Our declining culture - Air Force

From FOX News:

80 Christian Airmen say they've been subjected to threats, punishment
Evangelical Christian airmen at Lackland Air Force Base are facing severe threats and retribution for their religious beliefs and some personnel have been ordered to publicly express their position on gay marriage.

�There is an atmosphere of intimidation at Lackland Air Force Base,� said Steve Branson, the pastor of Village Parkway Baptist Church in San Antonio. �Gay commanders and officers are pushing their agenda on the airmen. There is a culture of fear in the military and it�s gone to a new level with the issue of homosexuality.�

Branson tells me at least 80 airmen attended a private meeting at the church where he heard them voice their concerns about religious hostilities at the Air Force base. It was a standing-room only crowd.

�The religious persecution is happening,� the pastor said. �It�s getting bigger every day. Gay and lesbian airmen can talk about their lifestyle, but the rest have to stay completely quiet about what they believe.�

I really wonder why Gay people are getting so much press these days. They only comprise about 3.5% of the entire US population. Very much the minority. I do not begrudge them equal rights under the law but why do they insist on so much publicity. Go about your lives like all the rest of us.
