N2  - We seek strength in numbers as a survival strategy, so it seems unlikely that social bonds would make us want to intentionally die. However, our deep desire to be protected may explain our attraction to exaggerated notions of intentional self-sacrifice - even though research on suicide terrorists, kamikaze pilots, and cult members suggests they were not actually dying for their group.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
