I get what you mean. And yes, some situations would require you to end a life to preserve your own. But in what circumstances does the natural order permit killing? Self defence, obtaining food, dominance in some species.




Self-defense and obtaining food / resources, are a given.
Dominance depending on the situation (rule of law, revolution, extended self-defense).
Revenge.

All that being said, I'm not by any means a violent person, have not been in a fight or struck anyone outside of sparring in the last decade. Just not a pacifist either, its better to avoid conflict but at this moment I have little philosophical issue with it.

And yeah, I eat meat, but I sure as hell couldn't shoot a pig if it was the only way to obtain bacon. And that brings home the point that things dying doesn't feel that bad if we aren't the ones there to witness it.




I don't make a distinction between vicarious violence and direct :shrug:

Not sure how many people Stalin killed himself, but he was responsible for the deaths of many.
Eating meat is paying for animals to die... this is an iffy subject for me though, as I view plants as living and conscious.

Any detonation of nuclear weapons in the context of war on earth should be completely rejected.

There is no excuse for polluting the earth for thousands of years over a conflict. Many people all over the world are still getting cancer because of the nuclear weapons testing of the mid-1900s.

Its inexcusable. An atomic bomb isnt a really big explosive, its something that sets fire to an entire region and contaminates it with poison for thousands of years. Nuclear weapons are completely inhumane.

May that day never come again :hiroshima:
