[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jernau Morat Gurgeh: [QB] From what I've gathered, compensating for grammatical mistakes, this is Omega's opinion on killing, murder, etc.( Just trying to clarify, you can correct me if I'm wrong, Omega). Killing a person is the physical act of terminating a person, where [b]no[/b] ethical connotations are intended. Murder is a [b]subset[/b] of Killing, where ethical connotations [b]are[/b] intended. Murder is always wrong, as per Omega's version of the Ten Commandments, "Thou shalt not murder", and by definition as the [b]wrongful[/b] taking of another's life. Killing, being a superset of Murder, therefore, need not always be wrong, just when the Killing is classified as a Murder. So what it boils down to is this: Killing is not always wrong. Murder is always wrong. This is just what Omega's beliefs appear, to me , to be. I'll just point out that the whole issue of distinguishing between Killing and Murder is, unfortunately, rather subjective. [/QB][/QUOTE]
