If the nation needs my sons service; I expect them to step up; but, when the day comes that they begin to draft my daughters - I will question the soil I live on and those who run our government.
Not my or anyone elses daughter...fighting wars has always been and will always be the primary responsibility of men.

I haven't read all of the replies, so I don't know if this has been said ...
The key words seem to be (IMHO) "man" and "godly".
Male does not necesarily mean man and without a Godly perspective, it's impossible to be a man as God would have us to be.
I know there are guys that are 6'4", 280 and all that, but that doesn't make a man.
I believe ... based on scripture ... that women are to be modest in dress and that our society is doing everything to strip our women and sluttify them. Even "Christian" "men" allow their wives and daughters to dress in a provocative manner.
I think the first influence is generally the first input, and that would be through the 'eye-gate'/
So, men 'see' all around them, women that do not match up to a modest picture.
If the picture is not modest ... then they, the women, must also not be modest.
If the women are'nt modest, then they must be more than an ideal 'feminine' and that allows a 'man' to allow his daughter to be in the military instead of demanding she become a wife and mother, perpetrating a "Christian" oicture for others ... male and female ... to emulate.
Presumably he'd do the same as I would, tell the draft board to go to hell and ask where me and my son-in-laws can go to get our M16 re-issued.
You know there'd be mass-shit flying IF a draft starts..poeple will be in the streets, and you know the first thing they'll say is that the twins should go also..
Ignoring the fact that God's law is not enforceable by the civil authorities of these United States, under what principle or scripture do you dispute my reference to Ezekiel? Do you think God gives women a moral "get out of jail free" card? If you'd like to dispute my hermeneutics, you'll have to do better than throwing a tantrum.
One thing I can assure you of...since my sign-up date, you are the first to ever impugn my language skills, so you'll forgive me if chalk that criticism up to more puffery on your part.
Cry me a river...
Even the director of the Selective Service has acknowledged that women will most likely need to be drafted in the medical area, as there simply are not enough male medical workers should a dire situation (like weapons of mass destruction being unleashed) to undertake the challenge.

"A health-care draft is not a new concept to the U.S. military, said SSS Director of Public and Congressional Affairs Lew Brodsky.
"There used to be a doctors' draft in this country from 1950 to 1973, but it was limited to a handful of doctors only and specific kinds of doctors before you had the kind of specialties that we have today," said Brodsky.
The issue of a health-care draft was also raised and discussed by members of Congress in the late 1980s. Brodsky said the Senate Armed Services Committee was concerned about the possibility of a military conflict that involved weapons of mass destruction and incurred heavy casualties.
Brodsky said Congress argued that in a modern war the "military medical capability might not be sufficient to handle that crisis. It might be understaffed and might need more people quickly.
"Looking at the numbers of medical personnel required, the time frames and the kinds of skills required – it would have to include women," said Brodsky.
Ditto other professions and areas of expertise. No one wants the dire circumstances that would activate a draft to occur, however, if they did, we would be unwise to no use ALL the talent available to both stop our enemies and survive on the homefront. Lots of people would pitch in and help, no doubt, but a draft would organize people much faster to enabling us to deal more effectively with emergencies on a larger scale.
No matter what, she gets the house, all property, the children.
And even before the trial she automatically gets a restraining order.
If I was a young man I would only go to prostitutes.
They can only screw you one time.
I don't wonder at it! I just consider that putting women into close contact with men in military service (as is done now by the volunteer army) isn't good for either the men, the women, and most important, the military mission. If women are in the military, either drafted or voluntarily, they should have separate training and living quarters, like they used to. Also, if women want to be just like men, then logically they should be drafted if men are. One of the problems that you are alluding to is that women on the one hand want to be treated just like men (or better, practically like getting "reparations" or something!) but on the other hand sue for "reckless eyeballing", have special treatment legally, etc. It's a schizophrenic situation because WOMEN AND MEN REALLY ARE DIFFERENT! And have different things they are good at. Such as: men make rotten mothers and baby caretakers! The whole situation is so FUBAR I don't know what can help it.
The only solution I can think of about feminists is to shove their brand of equality (or lack there of) right back down their throats until they choke on it. That is why I say draft the feminists and only the feminists. But not all women.
Your scam is singularly unconvincing.
