Would You be Willing to Lie?

     I hate to say it, but if it were a matter of life and death I would probably lie and say that I believe something I didn't. Because people in this society were so judgemental that if you were in any way different in your beliefs you were basically burned at the steak. It was a tough time. You can still have you beliefs and believe what you want but I personally would keep it to myself. I wish I could say that I would stay true to be beliefs, but when it actually comes down to it, and if I were in danger because of my beliefs I would lie. It is a scary concept, the matter of life and death, and I dont know how I would or could cope with the decision. Why I would lie is because even though it would unfortunate to hide my beliefs but I just do not think I could die for them. But it also depends on the beliefs, if people are getting killed that is different story. I could not let innocent people die.
