| Message | Conscientious objectors generally only object to taking a life. They would be absolutely fine to serve in equally dangerous situations such as Ambulance Corps. In fact they do not have guns and so are almost in more danger than the average soldier in many cases. We must allow people to serve their country and their religious beliefs. |
