You can also be discharged and discriminated against for being female, too fat, too old, too tall, too thin, too blind, too handicapped, too stupid, too smelly, too many poor teeth, too many kidney stones, too much of a liar, too fraternizing, too sexually harassing, and too unwilling to accept the rules and regulations. The military is NOT the civilian world Terry. When was the last time you slept butt to face next to a man, and for that matter, an openly homosexual man? "Don't ask, don't tell" is a reasonable solution which balances the needs of most people just fine. Michael

>>Marriage, per se, is not religious<< Where did you learn history? But you didn't answer the question, what special set of rights did I get through marriage? >>you do not understand the underlying concepts of freedom and individual rights<< I don't understand them???? It's your point of view is the one that is from a non-understanding perspective. The stance that we must give each race and belief a special class is very discriminitory and harmfull to everyone. Did you know that by your quota systems: A white woman can have an Indian child; A white woman can have a black child; A white woman can have a hispanic child; A white woman can have aa asian child. BUT: An Indian woman CANNOT have a white child; A Black woman CANNOT have a white child; An Hispanic woman CANNOT have a white child; An Asian woman CANNOT have a white child. It is the liberals through their classifiing people by some means that aims to divide, segregate and disciminate. Setting up quotas system is totally dicriminitory yet you folks continue to propagate it. My view is give people equal opportunity on merits not on quotas. I lost a job opportunity based on quotas to a woman, skillwise and acheivement I was by far the better choice. They needed to check of the female managerial box, is this right? NO! >>This lack of inclusion -- right from the start -- is one of America's greatest tragedies and shames.<< gee, you make it sound like we've been the only ones that have done this. This has happened nearly everywhere, throughout history, including to present time. At least here weve learned from our past and are making it better. We certainly don't need to classify people as you suggest. Don't talk to me about hypocrisy when you exercise more glaringly. Jim
