I don't know, perhaps, are you a practitioner of Shinto?

No but I like the concept. I think it's worth arguing that some things are more valuable than the physical body.

I might agree with you there, though, personally, and it may seem cowardly, if I were given the choice to live or die depending on my outward beliefs or activities I would probably choose life every time. However, to be fair, I can honestly tell you that my convictions have not been tested to the extent that some might participate in a riot, other unlawful behavior, or even warfare.
