you'll find this very helpful.
summarizing from memory, they discussed the following:
1. People dying for what they think is true, but they were mistaken.
2. People dying to cover for someone else (mother admitting to murder to save daughter kind of scenario)
3. Attention seekers, apparently every high profile murder case has tons of people making fake confessions even though they'll likely be put to death if convicted.
4. I think they also talked about the martyrs were not put to death for believing in the resurrection, apparently they did something else and died for that but happened to be preachers.
And I think every religion has its martyrs, does that mean they're all true?
