Because someone in your government has decided that you have to.

This is mind blowing to me. I understand different perspective and everything and am not trying to knock anyone that genuinely and whole heartedly gets into it. But I cant wrap my head around "X knows best so we must kill for them because they taught us that way." Like there's actually people that think like that while acting like they are their own individual and not just a cog in someone else's game.

On the other hand some people grow up in that culture and are that. Those are the real ones.
