Chris,

<<I think that if people are unwilling to defend the country they live in then that country has no obligation to treat them as rightfull, respectable citizens. >>

I fully realize that this may be wishful thinking, but what if all people of all nations became unwilling to take up arms against others for any reason. No political wars, no religious wars, no wars based on material greed. Could anything make God happier? Is it not a dream that is worth pursuing, regardless of the seemingly insurmountable odds?

Muhhamad ALI(a personal hero of mine) refused to take up arms based on
his religious convictions. He is now regarded(by many) as being truly brave and spiritual for taking that stand in the face of adversity, and giving up millions of dollars and the prime of his career in the process. Imagine what the world be like if everyone took that stand?
