Actually, if you ask some one to kill some one, even in jest, and the person
does it, you are accessory to murder.  There's a long legal tradition
supporting that, and rightfully so.

On the religious question, however, I don't know any passage in the Bible
where Jesus says to kill people.

And to take this even more away from religion - it's absolute bull crap
to say that if I ask you to kill someone, and you do, it's my fault.
Unless we are talking about children here, at the end of the day, no one
is responsible for your actions but you. It may be wrong for me to ask
you to kill someone, but if you pull the trigger, you are the murderer,
not I. Shoot, didn't we (as a world) say this excuse wasn't satisfactory
for the Nazis? (ie, 'I was just following orders.'?)
