If certain federal lawmakers have their way, your eighteen-year-old daughters will be registered for selective service and drafted for combat by the next war. Many women's rights advocates claim that Christians have long since abandoned the issue of women in the military. Sadly, far too many pastors and politicians were embarrassingly silent on this issue in the days leading up to the war against Iraq. In this special forum of key theologians and Christian thinkers, we throw down the gauntlet of God's Holy Word, to proclaim that it is biblically impermissible and a profound judgment upon our nation for men to abdicate their role as protectors and warriors by permitting and perpetuating the practice of women in the military.

Equal rights in all aspects are what they want. They should also have equal responsibilities in all aspects. If a draft shall be necessary in the future, females should not be exempt. You simply can't have it both ways however it best serves you at that moment.

Many of the arguments the feminist uses to argue for women in the armed service and to allow them in combat arms units can also be applied to drafting women. Such is the case with females in Israel who also get drafted. Who can forget all the media reports about other nations allowing women in combat? Well, Israel drafts them too.
