Reply #85: Morality is often dependent on circumstances

[Zebedeo]

An act that is moral in one circumstance may be immoral in another circumstance. Your questions are unanswerable, though. I can't identify all circumstances under which killing is moral and all circumstances under which it is immoral. It would be a never-ending list.

Some examples can easily be thought of, though:

It is usually moral to kill in self-defense or in defense of innocent others. It is usually moral for a soldier to kill enemy soldiers. It is usually moral for correctional officers to kill condemned prisoners by lawful means in carry out a properly issued death warrant. Etc.

As for your supposition that "it should be easy to get everyone to agree on them," I hardly think that is the case. I certainly never suggested that it would be easy. But I am totally on board with your plan to end all human strife, if possible.
