[ QUOTE ]
I and everyone else not only has the right but a moral obligation to denigrate anyone who knowingly and willingly participates in military aggression. That might exclude the vast majority of those in uniform, but at the very least we should think less of them for participating than those who, for whatever reason, refuse.

Wow.

How can you post a staement like this? You are correct in saying that the soldier who refused to return to war and faced the consequences of his actions is worthy of everyone's respect. Anyone who takes a stand for what he believes in and is willing to face the consequences of his actions should gain people's respect whether or not people agree with his beliefs.

But exactly what philosophy/religion do you ascribe to where people have a moral obligation to denigrate other people?

You sound like a left-wing version of Fred Phelps. Simply change the words "military aggersion" to "a homosexual lifestyle" and you can see how utterly stupid your statement is.
