Is there a biblical basis for that stance?

To be clear I am against women in combat because I dont think they make effective combatants, not because of any moral stance, but I havent heard a biblical argument before.

They could be in lower tranche. So not the first called up, but if it really hits the fan it could happen.

That is, if Russia attacks and is invading us through Canada, I would be OK with calling up whoever we can to defend the country.

Would also decrease the possibility of it happening.

Oh, by the way...Russia does have a draft and does exempt women from conscription. But unlike us, Russia has a just Christian society with a rapidly growing church, a flat tax, and little time for the rainbow jihad. That’s why dems hate them.

No, but women shouldn’t be allowed in combat roles electively either. Most people who don’t think women should be in the military argue it based on practical grounds. However, whatever happened to disagreeing with women being in the military on the grounds that it is absolutely detestable and cowardly to put your women in harms way? A fact that every civilization since the beginning of mankind has known up until now.

If you could convince me that women in combat make it more effective I could be for it.

Thats a tall task though, the USMC did a study on this that showed women were slower, couldnt carry as much, and were more likely to either be a casualty or cause one.

No and I am also against the idea of a draft in the first place ,but understand why we have it. America's daughters should not have to sign up to be drafted and shipped off to war and they should only be in supports roles on a voluntary basis within our military. I know some on here will scream on here about equality ,but men and women are not equal in every way and trying to lie about that simple fact is a bad thing.

Women marched in the streets for 50 years now for equality. Serve it to them by demanding they serve equally!

Sure. There are plenty of roles for women in the military other than combat.
Medical, clerical, transportation, communications, intelligence, clergy. . . . .

God forbid it ever be required but if the military draft is ever reinstated due you think women should be included? Personally speaking, I wouldn't want to see my little sister or my nieces have to be subject to it but because of equal rights movement we have to debate the possibility.



Equal rights, equal draft. You wanted it, now you got it.

A society that asks its women to go defend its men deserves everything coming to it.


And a society that sends only men into combat will eventually be outnumbered by the women, theoretically. Think of all the men that have been killed in wars since the inception of the U.S.

Being a veteran of the Military with a daughter currently serving I think all men and women should register for the draft.

What non-veterans may not realize that all branches of the military have essential jobs that do not require being in combat that women and men can do. Only the most fit and able should be available for combat but most of the jobs can be by men or women.

There was a time when I was opposed to women registering for the draft. That has changed for the reason I just mentioned but also what a better way to to end the "equal everything" for all when women will throw up in arms about having to register for the draft. I say be careful for what they wish for because they may just get it.

Yes.

And the military should then assign personnel to specific roles (combat, support, etc) based upon objective criteria, rather than social engineering.

WTF does this mean? What part of personnel assignment is social engineering? Do you have any idea how roles are selected in the military?

It means that the military should not assign a 110 pound woman to a combat unit carrying an 80 pound field pack, just because Gloria Steinem thinks all women should be allowed to serve a combat role.

I would have expected you to agree with this premise. “Goes to show you never can tell,” I suppose.
