Is it worth dying for?

Question

If you knew information that could start another revolution, similar to what the industrial revolution did, where it would drastically change how the world is, but were afraid to publicize it for fear of your life, would you do it anyway? Is it worth the risk of losing your life?

Answer 1

starting a revolution?? I always dreamt of starting one. I'll be in history books.

Answer 2

what is going to happen will happen. If you are for  a cause and not for mass and have the bravity in discharging your duty you are then the real knight or the best warrior. why fear when god is near?

Answer 3

yes I would .. as long as the change would be to open a new door for people in general grater understanding etc .. better lives..so yes

Answer 4

Yes, progression of the whole is more important than the survival of one.

Answer 5

Risking death is a h**l of a lot different than dying. It depends on the level of risk. It also depends on what I thought the chances were of the information coming to light by means other than my publishing it. In your example I think the chances would be very high. My willingness to take on risk would therefore be less.

Those machines sound pretty good. (Although instantaneous shipping might have a huge potential for misuse) If I thought that I could drastically transform the world for the better, and without my bringing it about, the chance would be lost forever, I'd be willing to take almost any risk. That's so hypothetical though.

Answer 6

not everyone considers the industrial revolution progress...you know how little pollution there was back in the day. only those who can afford the "progress" benefit. Although advances in healthcare exist, those advances only help those who have the $...so probably not...but if it meant we were no longer reliant on ANY fuel to operate vehicles, I'd have to sleep on it.

Answer 7

Not to preach but Jesus saw what the world had become and He died for it. I think, if I had to make a choice to put my life on the line to save a lot of people, I would. The greatest form of love is to lay down your life for another. Considering if it was a moral, way to glorify God? Yes I would in a heartbeat. I could use all the brownie points I can get.
