Unfortunately, the topic couldn&#8217;t be addressed for very long as it occurred so late in the radio program, as asked by caller Casey from Ohio:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>First, I gotta make a quick point. I&#8217;m an Air Force Academy graduate [crosstalk] messages on the board, its important to note that those cadet rooms are offices. Every cadet, once you become a third classman &#8212; a sophomore &#8212; or higher is a leader, as a mentor, or as a supervisor of a younger cadet. So, for me as a fourth class or freshman cadet, I wouldn&#8217;t want to go into a room and be open as you&#8217;re supposed to be with your supervisor or mentor about the challenges you&#8217;re facing when I see quotes like that, so I think there is a reasonable time, place, and manner restriction placed on those messages.<\/p>\n<p>But my question for Mikey is about these athei&#8230;&#8211; now he&#8217;s taking on atheists at the Academy.
