Oh, don't misunderstand me - I find your stance honorable.
As for myself, I've been in that situation, actually. And I do the only thing a rational person would do, in that circumstance: namely, I side with whomever I think is going to win. Matters of morality have never mattered to me, and if someone is posing a completely unbeatable threat - at least, unbeatable as far as I can discern - then I would quite prefer to inherit the earth than die on some hill I don't even believe exists.
