When I see someone doing something 'normal', you know, like how it was 30 years ago, I say to myself, "Look at that guy, just sitting there (or whatever they're doing) like a psychopath."

It often seems like that; someone doing something that was normal way back when makes you a nutjob today.

religious exemptions are messy. Vietnam for instance and the CO status.... If you were a member of the Quakers which prohibited killing people you could legitimately claim religious exemption and serve in ways other than the military. If you were not, it was much more difficult to claim moral values, even if you were, say, a Catholic, even though the Bible said thou shall not kill. I had a friend who was drafted, didn't want to kill others, went AWOL, was caught, and shipped off to Nam despite claiming CO status.

My guess is that it will become more than what it is. On one hand she is claiming religious exemption for the conviction and fines to be overturned. On the other they are claiming that the ruling which caused the turmoil should be overturned. My guess is that the original ruling will be reversed and then left up to the states like with the Hobbs ruling.
