Commandment VIII

Commandment VIII

 

*“Thou shalt not steal.”

 

probably one of the oldest ways of taking another’s life

because they

just

didn’t

act

like

you

wanted

them

to

act

was by flaying them

 

in this,

the good believers of

the middle east,

europe,

africa, and the united states,

tied the prospective arms and legs of

“witches,”

enemy soldiers, & other various

miscreants

to a pole

stretching them out naked

 

now, with the individual on

exhibit

for all the world to see

the good believers would begin to peel the skin of the accused

off of their body

slowly---

most of the time, beginning with the face,

while traveling downwards

 

peeling of the skin of the face

and then scaling below

the individual would often not even be able to stay

conscious

before

the good believers

got to their collar bone

&

most assuredly would

perish

soon thereafter

 

sometimes, to spice things up,

the good believers

might just let the accused burn naked in the sun,

or they’d immerse the individual in scalding water

prior to the

merrymaking.
