Why do people think "killing" may be a solution?

Answer 1

Why do people think "killing" is necessarily wrong? Think about this a second. What would you think if you were home with your children and your husband. A depraved psychopath breaks down your door. He is unarmed while your husband has a shotgun trained on him. The psychopath rushes toward you. Rather than blowing him away, your husband puts the gun down saying that killing people is wrong and never a solution. The psychopath rapes you and then murders your children in front of your eyes. He then laughs at your husband calling him a coward and walks off.

What would you think of your husband? Isn't what he is doing evil? Almost as evil as the psychopath?

Why is this any different when it is society dealing with criminals or nations stopping depraved psychopaths from killing millions of our citizens using nuclear weapons in acts of urban terrorism.

You are making a moral judgement against those who use violence to protect you. That is an evil act you should be ashamed of.

Answer 2

It is a solution in every problem. I'm not saying it is "the" solution, but it is always a solution, part of the cards held in the hands of world leaders. Some deal out the "war" card, and so the killing starts. Unfortunatly, in many instances, the only way to stop the killing is to kill. Kill those who started the killing. i.e. Nazi Germany. Or at least subdue them. But your still using force, and that usually involves deaths.

Answer 3

i THINK people mean to erradicate the evil, but history and humankind shows that killing has been the favorite choice in countries militaries and gov for quickly disposing of the enemy to our ideas and life and person, when in fact I think there are other solutions. Union in Praying ..."where more than one gather in my name...I WILL BE THERE" if we only had enough faith to convert the world in peace by praying lots of lives would be saved.

The power of prayer is the most potent weapon against anything or in care of anything.

Unfurtunately I think that those who resort to killing (without being forced to do it) are a lower spiritual or not spiritual people at all.
People who have not had the chance to see the actions and power of the Holly spirit that God can send to remedy many situations.

Or people full of evil who cannot see other than kill and do it without any events interrupted in their daily life.

KILLING CAN ONLY COME FROM SOMETHING EVIL BEHIND IT ALL. And yes the devil ccan make a person be convinced that they have to kill instead of eevaluating many other options.

Answer 4

The question can be answered with a question. If someone must die do you prefer it to be Innocent or evil?

Assuming your talking about war.

Our enemies i.e. terrorists Al quida et all. Capture and then display beheading, indiscriminately intentionally bomb areas that are densely populated with children women and civilians.

If someone must die. I have to say I'm all for it being that kind of person that kills like our enemies do.

Answer 5

because in certain situations killing is the only way to get out of there...also it is a mental state of none thinking that lead to killing such as finding out some disturbing news some come forward and they serve they're time like men, some hide in fear of what will happen and they die cowards

Answer 6

Because it may terminate a specific threat, but at the same time, creates a new problem.

Answer 7

idk. but i think communication is the best key. killing can be wrong and unmeaningful. for example, say a guy killed another guy for money. That's like saying green paper is more important than a person's own flesh in blood. Ppl don't realize what they're fighting for until thier gone.
