Air Force folks have to, ya know, fly an stuff. So they think, "Okay, I"m gonna be up there kinda close to hebin and easily reachable by gawd, sooooo, better hedge my bets and at least appear to be a christian; else gawd could smite me midair. Such thinkin musta trickled down to the ground troops.

You jest, but I fear it's coming to that. I truly do. That's why I accept the Wonkette as my personal lord and sanity savior.

Hey Wonkette! How 'bout that slogan on a coffee mug? "Wonkette. My Personal Lord and Sanity Savior." I won't even charge for the idea. Just maybe a free mug? Or, HOW 'BOUT a slogan contest to raise money? Charge $5 to enter an idea, and give a free mug to the winner!

Reached by Air Force Times, Deborah Schoenfeld said that her co-workers at the Epes Dental Clinic harassed her over her Hindu faith, claiming she was satanic for wanting to practice yoga and meditating.

Wait a minute. She's "under suspicion" because she does activities that tons of suburban moms have been doing for decades now?

Just don't pose like one though, because that's devil-worshipping there.

Their colossal egos and out-of-whack sense of self-importance is being persecuted. Does that count?

The Pharisee-Americans can ask God to smite Hindu "voodoo priesteses" and dudes who want to marry buttsex, yet they can't get Him to devinely intervene against gingivitis? Kinda weak, ain't it.
