It's a human condition to ponder one's mortality. Only a fool deludes themselves in to thinking they're above the laws of the universe.

I don't want to even really address the "I know that God wont let anything happen to me" line but I can't help it. Many men died believing that faith would shield them from the result of steel and blood. The Crusades and many other wars before that, If it's not moral reasons for nations to go to war, it's religious ones.

You may ponder your own mortality, but I ponder the mortality of any man put in front of you. Can you kill a man because your country told you to, not knowing the complexity that makes this man a man? What situations and decisions in life he had to make that ultimately put him in your crosshairs?

I can't. Good luck to you.
