ROTC Values Training Includes Christian Examples

CNN reports that the Air Force's unit on core values taught to ROTC cadets includes Christian-themed examples.  The Ten Commandments, the Sermon on the Mount and the Golden Rule are used as examples of ethical values. This follows disclosures last month of the use of Christian "just war" theories in training of missile officers. (See prior posting.) According to CNN, a spokesman for the Air Force's Air Education and Training Command confirmed the content of the ROTC ethics training and said a comprehensive review was underway "of training materials that address morals, ethics, core values and related character development issues to ensure appropriate and balanced use of all religious and secular source material."
