It has been written that there is no greater love than to lay down your life for someone/somecause. Who would you die for?

If dying for someone means care, respect and love for the person; then would a selfish and self-righteous person die for oneself? What would that mean?

As for myself, it mainly depends if I'm going to see jahannam or not!

For those people that said they would only die for family & friends, that is very admirable. Like jahannam said, it says in the bible:

"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."
-John 15:13

It is also true that its easy to say your going to do something, than to actually do it.
But I think that there is no greater love than for a man to lay down his life for a stranger. That is what our troops do everyday over in Iraq and for that I say God bless them.

As for dying for a cause, people do that everyday. Thats what is going on every day in the Middle-East. Thats what happened on an April morning in 1915 when Turkish troops began a non-stop attack on the city if Van, where under the leadership of Aram Manukian, the citizens of Van rose up in arms even after they were informed that more than 30 thousand Armenians in surrounding villages had been killed in three days. The desperate defense of Van lasted 36 days with 55 thousand Armenians being killed. Sure they could have fled the city, but they didnt. It was their home and their land. They fought and died for their families, for freedom, for their children, and for their cause.

God bless.
