Diversity, anyone? |
So if we can believe this obviously biased persons numbers, out of 48 new chaplains at the AF academy back in 2004 a whopping 12 of them are considered (by him) to be evangelical. Yeah i'd say that would be pretty diverse. Maybe not as diverse as it could be but far more diverse than you imply.
I wonder how many of the other 36 chaplains are Muslim?  |
6 chaplains multiplied by 300% = 18 chaplains, 12 plus former 3 (of former 6) = 15 of 18 chaplains being evangelicals, that makes for a quota of 83.3%. Clergymen raised by 300%, while cadet numbers fell by 25%.
15 fundamentalists, 2 other christians, 1 Jewish.
Math, 7th class.
Or read it in the article.
what was it with diversity?
