This is not my situation just interested, If a member of your family did something like rape or murder your love partner, or sold you out to the police for narcotics or any reason really is it OK to kill them what do you think. I know it is a sick question I am hoping for sick answers

Murder your family, but only if they gave the cops your home address in terms dealing with drugs.
Rape is a little bit different.
If you tell everyone in the family who the rapist is and they do nothing about it....you can kill them under those circumstances as well.

Killing is an extreme step which is pointless and irrational. If that is the ultimate move to retribute, then we need not live in a society...we can as well live in caves to let lose our primal instincts and go berserk.
The philosophy of "karma" is fascinating to understand. All the people who have killed, betrayed and looted in the past were never remembered. They all died a painful death. No matter what, good always reigns over bad. Do good, then you are bound to reap rewards that are bountiful. Evil begets evil and ultimately death.

Nope. Justice is, I think, one of the most interesting questions that the human race must face, and our current justice system leaves a lot to be desired. I don't believe we ever will find a completely fair system. However, taking justice into your own hands does not help that system. When you act out of anger or revenge toward another person, your level of anger and the severity of your acts are by no means disinterested. A perfect justice system would be biased toward neither side - and you killing someone who had hurt you is an act born of extreme bias.

No, murder is never justified unless it is in self defense. Let the legal system handle the situation.

Killing should be a last resort situation, so I don't think it's ok to kill your family.
That said, I wouldn't condemn the case of someone raped by a member of his/her family to kill that rapist...

You need to allow them to continue to rape, murder and kill the the rest of your family. God has said "vengence is mine and I will repay." .. and "do not resist evil". Then you will have your reward, and they will have theirs.

No, murder is never okay. You should always forgive, it's a big step, but it's the right thing to do.

no killing another human being is never the answer, the only right answer is justice.

No. If you try to use it like revenge, then the killing won't stop.
