I'm sure there were many, many soldiers of many, many different faiths,

that fought over in Vietnam.   A draft dodger is one thing, but using religion as a 'guise' to skip out? Just makes it worse.

Apparently it was right, the Supreme Court said so.

 

There is a history of this, a precedent.

Quakers are also a religius group who don't believe in wars, are you against them also?

 

Mr' Ali had his reasons as others do too, he stood up against a war that he believed was not his  to fight. He didn't hide behind his father's millions, have a fake injury, pretend an illness or hide behind his religion doing caritable works!

This sad news truly hurts my heart.  God bless you, Sir. 

Strive for respect instead of attention. It lasts longer.

This makes me feel so sad. We have lost so many people since the start of the new year. One after another. Smiley Sad
