Is a story sacred?

I see that a lot of people here intend to get their novels published. But what would you do if you finally found a willing publisher but he wants certain events in the book or even endings rewritten? It's not uncommon, I've heard.

What would you do?

Do you consider a story, once written, completely finished and not to be changed? Or would you agree to rewriting and changing bits of your 'baby' if it meant getting published?
