I repeat. You cannot understand. But that's ok. It takes all kinds
to
make the world go around.
Subscribe to what you believe in .... if anything .... but please
don't
condemn those that chose otherwise for their own personal reasons. It
does not mean they are bad people.

I'm capable of understanding absolutely anything, with no exceptions. In
this case, I need an explanation that goes a little further than
something
resembling religious faith, but I haven't seen it yet. "You serve
because
it's your duty, no matter WHAT. Period. No questions." If that last
statement is wrong, please modify it.


You obviously have no idea of the thoughts which go through the mind of
those who just received their draft notice. To explain these thoughts
and
the rationale for serving, would simply provide you with more
opportunity
to denigrate those who served, for whatever reason.

Unless you've been there, and done that, you are *not* capable of
understanding. Furthermore, your snide comments and innuendoes prove you
have no desire to do so.

Do you realize what you're saying here? That when you vote for a
president,
you give him complete carte blanche to start a war for any reason at all,
and you'll go, no matter what the reason?


It's so typical of your 'debating' technique to completely disregard what
was said so you can change a thread in a direction of your choice.

If I say, "I like cookies", does that mean I'm violently opposed to the
eating of meat and would like to see grackles treated with the same
respect
given to engineers and doctors?

Obviously not, John. It means you like cookies. But, you are apparently
unable to explain something which makes no sense to me. How do you teach?
