    I believe that killing for no reason is wrong, but in the same sense, without cold blooded killing, the overpopulation would be even worse. Our morals endanger the planet, because killing is a form of population control. If animals don't kill each other, nature falls out of balance. Why should humans be any different? Humans are unbalanced creatures. I think we need to reevaluate ourselves, then fix the messes we've made, while also fixing ourselves to prevent further issues. In summation, yeah looking is wrong, but it's necessary to ensure the balance of humanity, and the world.

    Well no act can be evil in itself, only if its done under the wrong circumstances. The idea that killing is always wrong is just something that is hammered into our skulls by our parents from the moment we are born and that is why we "feel" that killing is wrong just we "feel" god exists. The idea that killing is wrong wasn't even brought forth in most countries until well after 1500 A.C and the only reason a killer would get punished was if he killed an important person or if a family member of the deceased sought revenge. This idea that all killing is wrong was brought forth by misguided idealists and then supported by the corrupt government to avoid a repeat of the french revolution while continuing to do whatever was in their own best interests instead of their countries best interests.
