3. My family is Quaker yet many have served in the military.

Several distant relatives have actually been in wars, and several have used the CO status. We have never judged either way, it is a personal decision.

I feel strongly that if someone does not want to fight in a war then he/she should not have to.

If anyone is interested in Quakerism, let me know, I'll help you convert . ;-) I find it to be a pretty cool, open-minded religion. Much like Universal Unitarian.
