(February 19, 2015 at 8:57 pm)Dystopia Wrote: Murder can be morally acceptable if it constitutes self-defense - Either I kill the guy or he kills me, I don't have a choice.

Rape is always wrong because there's no circumstance that obligates me to rape someone - And please don't bring a magical, almost impossible to happen scenario, I don't care - 99%-100% rapes are not out of self-defense.

I'm with rexbecca
Except, self defense isn't murder. Killing another person is later classified as murder which defines an immoral act. Killing is Amoral, and more information is required to determine which bin we sort it in. Sex is Amoral, rape is immoral. Again...
