It's an interesting question at face value, if you unload it.
Would you give up your core beliefs (or lack thereof) that determine your worldview to save the lives of 100 children?
Assuming I'd be left with a blank slate... Probably. It was a lot of fun going on the journey that built the worldview I have now. I'd do it again with a fresh perspective.
Having it replaced by whoever crafted the "trial?" Fuck off. You guys apparently like to threaten children to guilt people into converting to your club. That's some cult shit.
They did the mental gymnastics to craft this scenario and a magic spray that defuses bombs and eliminates a person's agency for belief. How much more of a leap is it that this "atheist bomb" is only a threat to these babies' belief in Christianity?
Actually, a cult is defined as a small religion, and as one of the largest religions, anything Christians do is by definition non-cult shit.
A cult does not have to be religious in nature.
Yes it does. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/cult
Definition 2 in your link would be non religious cults.
