Can a person himself (or her) declares martyrdom and that's all it takes to become one? Who is your favorite martyr or do you even have one? Does being a lameduck anything automatically confer that title upon one?
Can a person become a martyr without ever agreeing to be one? Are martyrs LONERS or are they very popular well-liked well-loved well-believed well-supported well-adored well-financed?
More males than female martyrs? Is it a genderish thing? If you're a guy your chances are way better than if you're not?
What are the benefits to martydom? Immorality? Sainthood?
