birth control for women soldiers

[Guest guest]

I had written yesterday, email must have gone into cyber space, but it seems this issue is increasingly one of "convenience". What message are we sending our women, as we erase their cycles, essentially creating a "man" as they go perform their vital duties around the globe. Wouldn't it be better if they embrace the role God has given them as a woman? How about instead of "be all you can be", be "who you were created to be"? Not that women cannot embrace their callings -- but that we fulfill our vocations AS women...

"I AM ordinary in the correct sense of the term; which means the acceptance of an order; a Creator and the Creation, the common sense of gratitude for Creation, life and love as gifts permanently good, marriage and chivalry as laws rightly controlling them, and the rest of the normal traditions of our race and religion. It is also thought a little odd that I regard the grass as green, even after some newly-discovered Slovak artist has painted it grey; that I think daylight very tolerable in spite of thirteen Lithuanian philosophers sitting in a row and cursing the light of day; and that, in matters more polemical, I actually prefer weddings to divorces and babies to Birth Control." ~GKC: 'The Thing,' VI. Obstinate Orthodoxy.
