Well, there’s an update on a story I blogged about last month – Wiccan Prison Chaplin? Nope.

The federal government is cancelling the contracts of all non-Christian chaplains at federal prisons, CBC News has learned.

The 20 part-time chaplains will be let go and their duties picked up by 80 full-time chaplains, all but one of whom are Christian, and the remaining 80 part-time Christian chaplains.

That’s anyone of a non-Christian faith: Muslim, Jew, Sikh, Wiccan… it doesn’t matter what you believe, or what the Christian faith thinks of your path, that`s the only option you have. Maybe someone could get the mysterious “Office of Religious Freedom” to weigh in on the situation?
