There are people, hundreds of thousands of Quakers, Mennonites, all our Doukhobors, Molokans, and others who do not belong to any definite sect, who consider that the use of force - and consequently, military service – is inconsistent with Christianity. Consequently there are every year among us in Russia some men called upon for military service who refuse to serve on the ground of their religious convictions. Does the government let them off then? No.
