Would you die for your beliefs? (page 2)

I should say yes but as we all know when it comes down to the crunch one never can tell how one is going to react. I can only say, that if it was necessary then I hope I would have the courage to die for my beliefs

I think most of us here have beliefs. The question was whether or not we would be willing to die for them.

I often wondered how I would react if our government became totalitarian and forced everyone to receive a implant chip in their right hand (or forehead) the contains everything you need to survive in a digital world. Money is transferred through the chip. Medical records and personal information is stored in the chip. Without it - you would be an outcast.

If it got to the point where I had a gun to my head to take the "mark" -- I'd most likely die for my beliefs.
