...a life without murder

[nokparanta]

i just watched a movie. Minority Report, starring Tom Cruise. if you haven't seen that movie, it is about a policing system using something called "pre-cognates". Now this movie is taking place in the future; about 2045 or something. A new type of heroin, neroin, surfaces and it is near fatal. Many children become addicts and have children under

good entry...thought-provoking. but i'm not so sure if i'm glad for murder. i'm definitely glad for death...it's true that people would lead pretty trite and meaningless lives if they had no concept of death. but murder is simply ending a life before it would otherwise end (i.e. by heart disease, cancer, or the other common life-enders these days). that, to me, seems wrong. i won't say that it's unnatural...after all, humans are part of nature, and murders occur because of human nature, just as being struck by lightning or having a life-ending disease is part of nature...but it is wrong to do that to a person. i mean...you know that. but it's just how sudden it is...it wouldn't allow the victim to say goodbye to people, to tell them that they love them...it can be bloody, ugly, etc

interesting

To an extent i agree with you liam. I still feel that the act itself is so pivital to a chain reaction of other events which hold us in the balance.
