Air Force Academy officials declined to show clips from a documentary critical of Christian proselytizing in the U.S. military at a seminar Wednesday on war and religion.

Footage from "Constantine's Sword," a documentary premiering April 19 in New York, was scheduled to be shown to cadets during the panel discussion.

But academy sponsors decided at the last minute against using the film clips because several Catholic organizations nationwide complained that the footage was anti-Catholic, academy spokesmen Johnny Whitaker said.
