Selective Conscientious Objection

The purpose of this paper is to consider the following three problems: (1) Whether selective conscientious objection is morally reasonable in general; and if so, (2) Whether selective conscientious objection should be recognized as a constitutional right by judicial interpretation; or (3) Whether selective conscientious objection should become part of any new draft law that would be passed by Congress.
