RE: Is Killing the Antedote for Killings?
I think "thou shall not kill" is in the same book you got the Cane and Abel story. So if you believe that book, it is actually clear that you are not supposed to kill.
Also you talk about death as a punishment. Death cannot be a punishment since we all die. A person who might act as a benevolent angel dies, as well as the worst criminal. Then how can it be a punishment?
I think it might be one of the biggest challenges to a man who is born to a violent environment. But since you are questioning, I think the answer is clear. No matter what, do not kill, we all live and die, but we are not all killers and murderers. Chose wisely.
To your question as to how to tackle it. My logic says you have to learn how to look at the problem at your hand by trying to see the world through the eyes of your adversary. Most violent acts are promoted by a third party who is going to gain from the conflict. You are going to have to explain that there is much more to gain by having peace, than having war. Good luck!!!
