Doesn't the reasoning used to almost ban gays from the US military work against women as well?
Personally, I don't think women should serve, but there should be all the gay men possible. It could be the modern Sacred Band. Hmmm.
5 AnswersMilitary2 decades agoHas anyone's answers influenced your way of thinking?
Perhaps your ideals, religion, or other things. Maybe someone converted you with a paragraph?
13 AnswersYahoo Answers2 decades agoWhat modern religion has the most parallels to Jedi beliefs?
Please, support your answer...
Bonus question: Which is closest to those of the Sith?
8 AnswersReligion & Spirituality2 decades agoWhich is more difficult, quantum physics or metaphysical thinking?
I say 'metaphysical thinking' as metaphysics in itself is easy to master: just repeat what philosophers say.

3 AnswersPhilosophy2 decades agoDo you have any stereotypes of fencing?
I was thinking about it, and was wondering if it was still misunderstood or relatively unknown (silly Americans).
7 AnswersOther - Sports2 decades agoIf someone is closely related to, and liked, a member of the SS - are they a bad person?
Rather, the SS member is dead and was a nice old man in his lifetime... (and technically was not in the SS as it does not exist any longer).
Hmm, is this question completely confusing?

Folded steel, preferably, with minimal braiding or decoration. Full tang, and wooden sheath, too...
5 AnswersOther - Business & Finance2 decades agoDon't you think religious answers are the easy way out?
Any question is simply answered by "becuz da LORD tells us to." Perhaps I would think more of overtly Christian (redundant) people if they would answer questions after actually thinking, not immediately spewing biblical text.
12 AnswersReligion & Spirituality2 decades agoHow does Yahoo! Answers operate in sheer defiance of Occam's Razor?

5 AnswersYahoo Answers2 decades agoIs it necessary to propagate your religion?
Please do not answer with "Jesus loves you," it is unnecessary.
14 AnswersReligion & Spirituality2 decades agoHow nonexistant is the LGBT community on Yahoo! Answers?
Of normal proportion (5%), or smaller due to the large Christian influence here?
2 AnswersOther - Society & Culture2 decades agoIf you despise St. Valentine's Day, how wrong is it to say "Happy Valentine's Day Massacre Day!"?
In a mocking, but not insensitive manner.
6 AnswersValentine's Day2 decades agoWhat percentage of answerers do you think are Christian?
There appears to be a majority of religious users taking over the previous Indian-heavy population. Does the demography of Answers Beta resemble the world that much?
7 AnswersReligion & Spirituality2 decades agoIn Japanese, what exactly does the suffix -kun mean?
2 AnswersLanguages2 decades agoDoes anyone here actually have credentials?
I mean, who has the authority to answer anything (without wikipedia) correctly?

What about war criminals? Or puppies?
5 AnswersOther - Society & Culture2 decades ago"It's not sauer kraut, it's Freedom Cabbage!" How long did this last?
Longer than "freedom fries"?
3 AnswersHistory2 decades agoAre there any people of light skin who object to being called "white"?
