I originally had a previous paragraph but it seemed harsh so I cut it
out.  So, please bare with me if this seems disjointed.  I don't see why
we can't keep it the way it is. I've always viewed "Men of" in the
humanity sense.  Those who took latin know that the Romans had 2 words for
men.  1 meaning men(vir) vs. women(femina) and 1 meaning men(homines) vs.
animals/beasts(animalia).  If there are those who wish to change "Men of"
because "they're not a man" then I must say there are quite a bit of
chapters out there that have pledged beasts.  I for one view no
distinction between men, or women.  Of course please don't think I'm
forcing my opinion upon you to make your own.  I'm just offering another
viewpoint and a suggestion.

Take care of yourselves and Have an Excellent Day! :)

In Leadership, Friendship, and Service,
