The Experiment

Through my research and my crit group interactions, i've been looking at creating some experiments. Social experiments. Maybe particularly within my Moral Free Zone. The creation of a moral vacuum could influence the moral choices of people. They could believe they have no moral responsibility within the space and are more free to interact and choose certain things.
What does a person have to believe in order to take a life? What sort of situation is it morally acceptable to kill? Can I morally challenge the individual to an extent they become susceptible to the idea that it is OK to murder, that taking another's life is 'right'? Is it possible to twist the foundations of right and wrong within an individual? How convinced does a person have to be to consider a crime to be acceptable?
