Thou shalt not kill ? - By Dddeath
Today the human race uses the same "killer instincts" as did the apes and more inferior beings before them, all the way back to the atom. I dont need to give examples to prove that most, lets say 95%, of human or in fact any evolution was done by constant feuds, wars and by slaugter of not only its own kind. My point is, I write this not to show that "killing" is the only way to get some progress, but to show it is our heritage and it is in our blood, a part of us, and not some tool we can use to our needs. We must accept this part of us not as an outside event but as OUR need to do it. Not to blame others for being the source of your anger or hatred (as Caine blamed Abel) - its your need to kill. Not to use it as a method but as a solution (if the only way is to kill then do it. Hitler could relocate all the jews and didn't have to kill them, but when you face a dillema in which elimination is the only way, do it - this usually applies to life or death situations). And finaly don't be afraid of it, if someone wants to kill you its not beacuse he has the "right" to, its because he wants to. As soon as we all realize NO ONE has the "right" to kill but only does it because its a part of them , and understand that we can not only resist it but also do the same, we will use "killing" not as a measure of self defense against another's "killing" (terrorists who commit massive killings only because they're afraid they will die for their beliefs), but as a natural ingredient of our lives.
If you understand and analize those three basics of killing, you will see that not every day nor every 20 years you would have the reason to kill. And if killing needs to be done then it would be done as a matter of nature, mostly because it is a step to self improvement. And as told above this was done since the creation of our universe and is cerainly not wrong.
So far the article creates an impression of a one-sided point of view, a view that describes "killing" as a "good thing". That part only explains the nature of killing and its origins without describing social implications on the subjuct and is basically an anti-social point of view as we know it. The following part shows the connection between social nature and the urge to kill.
"Killing" has been a part of our social life since the beginning of our independent thinking as a human race. The caveman killed his enemy, tribes slaugtered one another over a piece of bread, land, a women... all of those factors could be the reason to kill, and of course the killing is done for one's own benefit. Yet we created rules, restrictions and laws that forbid such thing in contradiction to our own interests. Even more we created punishments for those who do it. Such contradictions can be found in the Bible; on one hand "god" tells us not to kill, while on the other hand it's the jews' own interest to expand their territory; on one hand government forbids murder, on the other its a very useful tool to retain stability; one one hand science has moral codes regarding experiments on human beings, on the other many things can be gained from such experiments. And the most intresting thing is that in every one of those examples the rules are broken and limitations are gone, and that leaves us with a very interesting question. Why do we create laws for such natural things as killing when we always break them?
