It is antithetical to survival to allow for murder, but only if every party realises this, or can avoid attack through some means other than lethal force. It is certainly logical to avoid death as staunchly as one can both on the recieving end and the giving end. It is a position that most certainly be taken down to the matter of survival and human furtherment as are many laws which are considered malum insae or evil in and of the selfs. |
You can't invent murder. It's something most lifeforms do.
To Teena, murder is not genetically abhorrent. Just ask feral humans who commit murder. Oh wait, you can't, they're mentally retarded if they even live long enough to be captured.
We only find murder wrong because it's what we're taught. If you grew up in Nazi Germany murder isn't bad at all. If Nazism had won the war, our world wouldn't find a problem with genocide and random murder. And then there's the literary world of 1984; murder is encouraged.
