The Old Testament came from God also, and arguments over it's content also continue to this day. Most arguments are around understanding its meaning, or getting the correct translation. In 392 A.D. and in 397 A.D., the only Christian Church in existence, the Roman Catholic Church, in two...

Not trying to be mean or disparaging here but there really isn't One good reason to lower the age of recruitment for the Marines or anyone else for that matter. What would you like to lower it to past the age of 17 in some instances? There would be way too much controversy if anyone in the...

That and I don't know you but thinking every female on the ship would...

The majority do it is called a bereavement fare. Don't have to be in the military to take advantage of that either.
