        That’s a common misconception, but you are under no obligation to sacrifice your life for anyone without a prior consent.

        If an organization tries to control your body or demands you to sacrifice your life, it’s a dangerous cult. Run.

          That’s a philosophical topic and not the law. Legally in America if you are called you must go. Otherwise you go to jail.
