Would you die for your country?

What will you do when you get old?

So would you be willing to die for your country? If not, is there an ideal or a person you'd be willing to die for if it meant the continuance of said ideal/person?

No. Ideas and pride are one thing. Life is another. Plus, I don't really have much national pride, so no thanks.

It depends on how I'm feeling that day and what I'm getting out of it.

The way I look at it, nobody who died for their country succeded as much as somebody who made the OTHER guy die for his.

Having said that, the quick answer is yes, I am prepared to die for Canada and for my personal ideals. But I'd rather the other guy die for his first.

If there was an invasion, yes. If not, no.

I just don't see the appeal. I have several causes I'm passionate about, like feminism, gay and civil rights, etc. but I wouldn't die for any of them. I think there's a difference between supporting something and being an advocate of something and just being a fool.

I'm not really supportive of the American government or military anyway.

Nothing is worth dying for if you truly believe there's nothing after death.

Perhaps I'd die for family members if there wasn't another way around it, but definitely not for ideas or nationalism.

No. I do not get national pride at all. It just flummoxes me. Being British means nothing to me. It's just where I live.

I don't feel strongly enough about a cause to die for it, but I would die for family members and close friends.

I pretty much believe this.

I would never die for my country, but I could potentially sacrifice my life for someone I truly love.

Cell: Sacrifice? Hmph, rubbish! On the contrary, it is an honor to become a fraction of my power.

Definitely not. I totally agree with Mitas in that I don't have a shred of national pride.

For Family or close friends? In a heartbeat.
