For protecting my people from the dangers they face and for...|||NO NO NO!  OK, so that was a bit full on...

I do, however, seem to often take a dislike to some other INTJs.  Sorry...|||I suppose that is where I most fundamentally disagree with you.  I won't be indoctrinated - I don't believe I can be.
