    Theists and non-theists, under what circumstances would you (if at all) torture a newborn baby to death by peeling off its skin?

    Sorry, this was meant to be a poll but the poll items were too long in text length (can't exceed 100 characters). The multi-checkbox choices would have been:

    [A] I am a theist and I would peel the skin off a heathen newborn baby if I thought 'God' wanted me to.
    I am a theist and I would peel the skin off a non-heathen newborn baby if I thought 'God' wanted me to.
    [C] I am a theist and I would peel the skin off of my very own newborn baby if I thought 'God' wanted me to.
    [D] I am a theist and I would NOT peel the skin off a baby if I thought 'God' wanted me to.

    [E] I am a non-theist and I would peel the skin off a newborn baby if my life or the lives of my loved ones depended on it.
    [F] I am a non-theist and I would peel the skin off of my very own newborn baby if my life or the lives of my other loved ones depended on it.
    [G] I am a non-theist and I would peel the skin off a newborn baby if a 'God' proved its existence and wanted me to.
    [H] I am a non-theist and I would NOT peel the skin off of a baby.

    Why would any sane individual want to peel the skin off of a newborn? And what does belief in religion have to do with it?

    Would would would.

    When asked directly, few people would admit to being willing to do so.

    But in reality, when certain circumstances strike, people actually do things that before they would have never thought they are able to do them.

    I suspect it's the latest attempt to bypass real discussion of the nature of calamity by straw manning religion

    Ok. Poll has been added. I made some slight modifications, but I think that point is understandable.

    * Note: Also, I expect the reason for opening this thread, i.e. Why this question has been raised (you heard about that in the news, you will provide us with info about known religious rites which involve peeling the skin off of the newborn babies, etc.). Otherwise I see no purpose in the thread existence.

    For a change I agree with you Lightgigantic.

    Greenberg what circumstances can you imagine where someone would have to peel the skin off of a newborn?

    I'm going to posit, in the meantime ... oh, never mind. The question's not to me.

    To the other, there's still no adequate answer.

    Awesome. Out of curiosity, I Googled the phrase peel the skin off a baby. We're the #1 link.

    What's funny is that I'm the only one so far who voted they wouldn't want to peel off a newborns skin.

    What the fuck kind of question is that !? lol
    Of course I would not, never..
    If God revealed himself to me one day and said he wanted me to do that, I would tell him toigo fuck himself..

    I could do it.
    There are people that do it for a living. They call them Medical Examiners or coroners.
    The only way I could do it is if the baby had already died and I had such a job, but its got nothing to do with religious belief.

    I think the OP meant the baby to be still alive. That's why he chose the words 'newborn baby' I suspect..
