What -does- add to the "fullness of what we-are"....if acting out what we are doesn't..in every case, such as merciless killing? [2]
1) =) Let me make it simple. Mercilessly killing people/things does not add to a full human life => If that is the case, then a full human life is not concurrently compatible with a life of merciless killing => If that is the case, then humanity is not fundamentally a thing that mercilessly kills.
2) The key discrepancy is your premise that asserts that "mercilessly killing" is synonymous with "acting out what we are". I do not think what-we-are and merciless-killer are synonymous. You certainly are not a merciless killer. I think many things are radically MISSING in the act of mercilessly killing people/things, and I know that because of the death and suffering caused in the victims and their communities. Though, I am starting to get the sense that your objection deals more with the concept of "humanity" than with any moral syllogism.
Let me ask you this: do you think that you have the same humanity as I do? as Robvalue has? as mlmooney89 has?
When you read the report of the atrocity in Orlando, did you think to yourself, "Well, I guess that is just a human doing what humans do." OR did you find the murderer's actions to be a colossal human failing?
