| And men don't have an emotional response? Isn't that what part of military training is about.. learning to follow orders no matter what the soldier might think or feel, because the enemy is the enemy, period.
Further, have you actually read historical accounts such as journals, or fragments thereof, written by soldiers in the field? I have, and I assure you many of those men during both world wars went through sheer Hell, knowing that they were slaughtering human beings little different from themselves.
As far as women being permitted in the military for combat positions, IMO if a woman really wants to have that sort of livliehood than she should have every right to do so.
I feel the same about ordaining women as ministers. It would not appeal to me personally, but again, why shouldn't they pursue such a vocation if they feel a calling for it?
