So I watched Cavite (which is the name of a rural city in the Philippines) yesterday, and it was about this guy whose mother and sister was kidnapped by terrorists. He had to follow the instructions of a terrorist who communicated with him via a cell phone and headset, or else the terrorists would kill them.
So the movie goes, and eventually the protagonist will be instructed to plant a bomb in a church, knowing that it will kill several people. Failing to do so would result in the death of his family. So my question to you is, if you were in his position, would you cooperate with the terrorist and plant the bomb to keep your family members alive? Or would you refuse to kill so many innocent people and risk the lives of your family? You know, some people say that it'd be quite selfish to kill so many civilians for only a few of your family members, while others say family first. On a lighter note, do you follow the philosophy of "family first" and put your family as your highest priority? By the way, Cavite is a pretty good independent film. |

I hate to say this but I would always put my family first before anything, even if it means blowing up a church because I know they would do the same for me.
