Yes, right in the heart of where the Christian Right did its
best to turn our airmen into zealots for Jesus,  a stone circle has been officially
added
 to worship facilities at our Air
Force Academy near Colorado Springs. The article from the Academy
itself shows Tech. Sgt. Robert Longcrier consecrating the new circle with white
sage.  I can barely imagine, if
that, the difficulties he and our other brothers and sisters in the service

had to go through for this to happen. 

It is wonderful news at so many levels and in so many ways
that I’ll simply leave it up to you guys to explore them.  You’ll probably come up with some I’d
miss.

My thanks to Niyati for tipping me off.

On this, my heart sings.

UPDATE

Celia’s Symbol Song is really appropriate here.
