Colorado Springs is home to the Air Force Academy, where the separation of church and state is basically an abstract idea, church attendance is mandatory if you plan to make the Air Force a career.
Do you need a better idea of what they practice/preach there?
Listen to the song "Sky Pilot" a 1968 release by Eric Burdon & The Animals, with lyrics like:
"He blesses the boys as they stand in line. The smell of gun grease,
and the bayonets they shine..."
and...
"You're soldiers of god you must understand
The fate of your country is in your young hands.
May god give you strength do your job really well
If it all was worth it only time it will tell......."
So, sleep tight tonight, your tax dollars are at work.
