Well, ok. So maybe I got it wrong. But the newspapers were sure making her look brave back when it happened.

The point still stands: if someone did that, I would find their action admirable even though I don't actually believe in God myself. I was trying to point out a paradox in this situation. Many of us think that saying "No" would be okay, maybe even right no matter what you actually believe in. But if we were to actually hear about somebody answering "Yes," and I mean that this person did so fully knowing that it would lead to death, we would think them very noble.

Human morality can be pretty strange sometimes...
