Three things come to mind here… one, why is not the water boiling? I’m thinking many of these Medieval torture guys just did it for the sake of torturing, no real evidence of guilt needed. I would think the water would be extra hot. Two, admitting to guilt in days of old when cauldrons of scalding water was the litmus test, I’m thinking, paying a fine would not be the punishment one would receive. More likely they would just go ahead and scald your hand off or cut it off, if not thrown in a dank, dark dungeon for your crime. Three… if the Christian believer has faith the Lord would save their limb from being boiled off and the truth is revealed that the Lord was having tea at that particular time and indeed, the innocent persons hand was scalded to the bone, would that said person lose faith and become a Satainist?
