Personally, if I was in his postition, I would would refuse, too. I think he refuses for the wrong reasons, though. In my opinion, it's utter cowardice to say "I simply will not fight because I don't believe this is real." Who cares if it's real or not? It shows unbelievable lack of compassion for everyone that "depends" on his response.

Given the same scenario, like I said above, I would refuse but for a different reason. This is my response to that situation:

"I refuse to do so. Who am I to carry the existence of my world? Everything else that lives alongside me is just as important as I am and I am not fit to be the judge of our fates."

I'm going to stop thinking about this but, on the other hand, I guess it's really not a question of what you would answer. It's a question of why you would answer that way. Ethics support why one does things.
