Court-martialed for his faith?

Stand with Major General Craig Olson, a two-star general in the United States Air Force, who is under attack for taking a public stand for his faith.

The Military Religious Freedom Foundation is calling for General Olson to be court-martialed and imprisoned for unforgivable crimes and transgressions. This comes a week after General Olson gave an unforgettable speech crediting God for his life and accomplishments in military service at a National Day of Prayer gathering.

General Olsen led by taking a bold stand and profession of his faith, “I am thankful that I am a redeemed believer in Christ standing here right now.” He went on to say, "flying complex aircraft; doing complex nuclear missions — I have no ability to do that. God enabled me to do that… He put me in charge of failing programs worth billions of dollars… I have no ability to do that, no training to do that. God did that. He sent me to Iraq to negotiate foreign military sales deals through an Arabic interpreter. I have no ability to do that. I was not trained to do that. God did all of that."

Olsen concluded asking for prayer of military leaders, “Pray for wisdom of military leaders, to design strategies, to be successful, to protecting our nation’s freedom; one of those freedoms is this, the freedom to pray and worship God.” (21 minute mark).

General Olson is under attack as anti-Christian groups are trying to take away his freedom to pray and worship God.  Far too many Christians have been pushed around by atheist Mikey Weinstein, the leader of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation. Sadly, under the Obama administration, when Weinstein complains about something, he gets an immediate response from the administration or the pentagon.

We must come together to support General Olsen before Mikey Weinstein get his way again. Sign our petition to the Secretary of Defense supporting Major General Craig Olson.

Note: The National Day of Prayer was created in 1952 by a joint resolution of the United States Congress and signed into law by President Harry S. Truman. The day is dedicated as an annual observance, held on the first Thursday of May, inviting people of all faiths to pray for the nation.

The Petition

Dismiss Mikey Weinstein's letter against Gen Olson

I urgently write you in support of Major General Craig Olson and his National Day of Prayer Speech. I ask that you dismiss, without recognition or merit, the request of investigation made by Mikey Weinstein on behalf of his intolerant group the Military Religious Freedom Foundation.

Entertaining the request made by Mr. Weinstein only allows you to be used as tool to blatantly intimidate General Olson and suppress his inherent right of free speech.

General Olson, a highly decorated two-star general, has the right to participate in a forum to express how he became a great General, including a freedom to express credit to God for his career effectively defending our nation’s freedoms, such as the freedom of speech and freedom to openly worship God which seems to sadly be in question by Mr. Weinstein.  

The letter you received from Mr. Weinstein should be immediately discarded as radical fandom advocating against the freedoms we our afforded in this free nation.
