Dying for What You Believe In

It is better to die for what you believe in than to lie to save your life. In the play The Crucible, the character John Proctor dies for what he believed in. He believed in telling the truth because he wanted his name to be good. Rebecca Nurse also died for what she believed in. She didn't want to lie to the church, her family, peers and her church. Proctor and Rebecca both knew they weren't doing anything with the devil but others accused them of that. They both knew what would happen if they confessed and said they were with the devil. That is what Judge Danforth wanted but that would mean that they are lying to God. I think that them dying for what they believed in was really good!
