Would you sacrifice yourself/give your own life to save others?

[SnowHearth]

Would you give your life to save others, including people you don't know?

I would.
I've been in situations where I traded my place so other, someone I'd never met before, could be saved. Somehow I've managed to survive.

Yes

Maybe. Depending on the situtation

No

[KnightCross]

i hope so, one day, that would the greatest glory of my life, regardless of the situation or the people involved in it. i'm not in the right to judge people, i will give goodness to people regardless if they are good and bad for God does the same.

Matthew 5:45
"for he causes his sun to rise on the bad as well as the good, and sends down rain to fall on the upright and the wicked alike."

[cth96190]

That would depend upon the context of the situation.
Would I die to defend/rescue an unknown woman?
After 60 years of an unrelenting tirade of hate from Feminists, not so much.

[amabc]

There are definitely people I would make that sacrifice for-- not just anyone, but there are a fair number of people I would do it for. And I like to think that if it were giving my life to save a thousand people or something, that I'd do it even if they were strangers.

[PrincessPie]

Maybe. Depending on the situation..

Depends who :) and why..
i'm not willing to for a stranger but a loved one is totally different story.

[lime_rampljuset]

I would.

I think that it's impossible to say until you are in that situation or have already been in that situation. I have not yet been in that situation so I won't speculate.

[Видар]

I hope I would. I mean, as a Christian I should not hesitate to give my life for anyone, but we humans are weak I pray God to give me strength to give my life if it's needed, I'm too weak to do it on my own.

[truthbeknown]

Nope! People suck! They can't be trusted, can't count on them, they only look out for themselves. WTF would you ever lay your life down for someone?

[alice55]

No, I wouldn't; I'm too much of a scaredy cat to do it. Even if i wanted to do it I would just be freezed not being able to move

[ScottSummers]

uh hard question
for my parents and sisters? yeah ofc
for my few best friends? maybe
for my gf? maybe
for random child? yes
random men and women? no

[BanterBlitz]

Sure, if it was someone I cared about. But a complete stranger? I'd take some degree of risk for them if they seemed decent but I wouldn't die for them.

[sodababe]

Honestly for a stranger that'd be a no. But for specific people, I know I would 100%

[Kit_Kat88]

For mom yes
For rest of family no
For boyfriend yes
For friends and other people no

[SnowHearth]

if your boyfriend betrays you, will you still save him?

[Kit_Kat88]

No I won't. I'll help throw him in the pit

[Kit_Kat88]

Jk jk not to that extreme but I'll still be highly unlikely to save him

[sedrftvgyhujik]

No one really knows what they would would do until there actually placed in that situation.

[SnowHearth]

once you save a person everything changes, it becomes easier to save more people.

[sedrftvgyhujik]

I've never been in a situation where i'd have to give my life to save someone and hopefully I and as few pepole as possible will ever have to make such a decision.
You where very heroic and brave to be willing to do so though.
Was it because of the conflict between Russia and the Ukraine?

[John_Doesnt]

Depends who I'm giving my life for. A complete stranger: probably not. A loved one: definitely.

[FýrdracaDócincel]

There is only one person who I would give my life for.

[jjesica346]

There are 3 people I would do that for... my kids and my husband.

[red324]

Probably not, I don't get treated good enough by most people.

[TheSpartan]

Of course. My ideal way of dying would be a land stand.

[TheSpartan]

last stand*

[CubbyCrazes]

Hell no, I'm the only smart one and I deserve to live

[SnowHearth]

are you?

[CubbyCrazes]

yes.

[SnowHearth]

really?

[CubbyCrazes]

I know 4 languages.

[SnowHearth]

I can speak 11 languages, including 2 sign languages, and can understand 5 more.
My 7yo daughter knows 18.
A friend of mine nows can communicate in 6 different languages, and can understant 8 more

[SnowHearth]

understand*

[CubbyCrazes]

holy crap okay you win

[CarlR]

i call bullshit, but not like that matters here on the Internet anyway.

[AskNaz]

@CarlR Lol of course it's BS... A 7 yr old knowing 18 languages?

[lime_rampljuset]

@AskNaz everything is possible

[lime_rampljuset]

@CarlR so you just came to troll, and not give an actual response? I don't see yours. Mine is there, and has a picture too.

[CarlR]

@lime_rampljuset There is no further response i can give to continue any meaningful conversation on the above topic. so no, i have no response. Not sure what you mean by "has a picture to"

[lime_rampljuset]

@CarlR I was asking about your response to the question, not this topic; and mentioned that I did answer the question.

[AskNaz]

Why does he have to have a response to the question? Lol

[CarlR]

@lime_rampljuset ah, Alright... Although it would be highly situational for a random person, it's possible i would if it had enough probability for self survival (with assumed injury's). I would not throw myself off a bridge or in front of a Vehicle however in an attempt to save someone if there was not enough likelihood that we would both survive with or without Injury's.

However, I would without thinking always Sacrifice myself if it would give any chance to save my Daughter or even her mother (my Ex).

call me a bad person, but as for my Family who for the most part is dysfunctional and doesn't get along well, it would be inbetween the 2 scenarios.

[BertMacklinFBI]

im gonna say depends.

[Anonymous]

I voted B. I mean i wouldn't risk a broken nail to save 75% of millenial women. they are the lowest of the low.

[Tanairy328]

If its someone i care about

[jacquesvol]

I'd give it for my son and/or granddaughter.

[jacquesvol]

Much younger persons have more to expect from life than I do.

[Knight1]

yeah but it depends on who they are
