K so Genocide, patricide, and homicide, and feoticide all find legal and morally justifiable manifestations in our world but these connotations are reserved for the bad versions of each. At what point is it that a personal matter such as killing/homicide becomes open to public restrictions and discourse? what about pulling-the-plug/matricide? self-defense/murder? abortion/feoticide? I would guess they're all in the same place in the action phase of causality. What would distinguish the connotative basis of each of the pairs: serverity, personal impact, social impact, greatest harm done, biggest evil, etc.?
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
