Shush!
Rather distressing to note that not everyone on this planet suffers from civility. Inherently, everyone here would love to see a colorful painting but then black and white are colors too. Life can never be explained without analogies and it is here that we start comparing it with the most unrelated things. I take a painting most of the time because I like colors. Cutting out the bad parts of your life could be one approach to making it happy but then isn't happiness relative? Everyone keeps on saying that there is no good without evil, but no one says the opposite- There is no evil without good. So, why don't we start eradicating all good from this planet isn't that the way it is supposed to work? Unless there is a huge flaw in the analogy, I suppose it is okay to let all the serial killers, rapists, thieves and psychopaths do as they please. Maybe then there will be some kind of balance where morality would be justified by both the sides. And the next time someone sticks a fork into a guys eye because they refused to lend them money, the jury could stick a fork into anyone they pleased.
Ow!
Mutilation is not everyones cup of tea, well it depends upon the context of mutilation too. I wouldn't mind grabbing a slice of cake and smashing it over my friends face, as a matter of fact anyone could do that- its fun and its harmless. Slicing up human beings on the other hand doesn't quite appease the appetite of a normal individual. People could be okay with decapitating hens or- cocks for that matter, but there have always been degrees. So where do we draw a line between cutting cakes and cutting people? Cutting has always been fun and so has been putting stuff on fire. That doesn't mean we start slicing people up and setting them on fire, but why ? Just because you feel like turning your stomachs inside out after you are done experimenting with a corpse is no reason to outlaw murdering people. And when we plead in a court to sentence a psychopath to death aren't we being the biggest hypocrites? Just because hanging a guy on a noose did not make you squirm ? Or was it because he had killed so many people already so of course justice would dictate killing him to honor their memories.
