This reminded me of a song that a band played when we lived in Columbus. It was called If I Could Murder the Right Man. Put out around 9/11 when other bands were making similar albums, example Sleater Kinney.
The lyric went: If I could murder the right man, would I buy my way into heaven.
There are different types of murders. Revenge is what I generally think of when I hear the word murder. I couldn't murder anyone unless I was in a rage and had a good rationale for it. Anyone can lie to themselves and pretend it's the right thing to do.
However, if it's a murder that will save other people from harm or death, then I guess that would be logical. But then again: Anyone can lie to themselves and pretend it's the right thing to do. Who can say who deserves to die and who deserves to live?
