I think I have too much difficulty in imagining myself considering anything a "sacred act" to answer. :\
Pretty much this... I can't think of anything that would be worth taking the consequences of murder for, at least not now, I suppose my perspective could change. Now, if there were no consequences for the act...
I imagine you do not want us to reinterpret the question so as to make it lose almost all of its usual semantic content, therefore my answer is 'no'.If you believed it was a sacred act, would you kill someone?
hmmm if i was brain washed to believe taking a life was a sacred thing, maybe. iprobablywould not be myself.

In return I would like to ask you how this rather strange question/thread came about.
Only in hypotheticals. Place us in real-life situations, and, bam; who knows how we'll act!I am asking because I know that people have consciences and they also have social programming. I am trying to see if social programming can override conscience.
I am more likely to kill someone for wanting to hug me unexpectedly or cutting me off in traffic.
Is nothing sacred anymore?! I ask you!
There are examples in various religions of this.
