Air Force builds a stonehenge like worship center for pagans, druids, wiccans

Their ranks are slim. According to the academy's enrollment records, only three of 4,300 cadets identified themselves as pagans, followers of an ancient religion that generally does not worship a single god and considers all things in nature interconnected.

Still, the academy this year dedicated an $80,000 outdoor worship center � a small Stonehenge-like circle of boulders with propane fire pit � high on a hill for the handful of current or future cadets whose religions fall under the broad category of "Earth-based." Those include pagans, Wiccans, druids, witches and followers of Native American faiths.

The academy has had a rap for being pro-Evangelical Christian. This is them trying to shake that. -- nm - Mop Nov 26, 22:57 1
