Revenge

Therefore, life is supporting hatred and violence.

The bold is true, it's impossible to live without something else dying. However, there's a difference between experienceing the innevitable violence of life, and actively seeking out violence for something as trivial as revenge.

As for the underlined, that's like destroying a sock to get rid of a hole. The hole's gone, but you don't have a sock to wear anymore.

Yet the underlined are still technically true if you accept the first statement. The only way the underlined is false is if you disprove the first part.

It's one way to look at it, no argument there.

It's not exactly the only way to look at it though.

If you look at it in terms of positives and negatives, killing could be divided into at least two groups: Death which perpetuates life and death which does not perpetuate life.

If you eat a cow, the cow's death is perpetuating life by preventing you from dying of starvation, making it a 'positive' thing. If you kill a cow and leave it rot, it is going to perpetuate life by way of decomposition, granted, but it would do so in any way that it died. It could therefore be said to be solely 'negative'.

Not quite. If you kill a human, then every breath that he took and the gas he used will have done irreparable damage to the environment, causing a great amount of sadness.

Ergo, killing anyone is a good thing in the long term.

It is a positive thing in that regard.

Revenge, therefore, follows their example and does even more justice for the world. Revenge is therefore even more positive because it not only kills, but also makes you want to kill more, causing several deaths along the way and afterward.

You can't 'use' gas.

At least, not in the sense of it being forever depleted. All the gas that is 'used' in cellular respiration is changed in some form. The basic equation for humans, at least, is something like: C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy.

Conveniently, the basic equation for plants to conduct photosynthesis is 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy --> 6O2 + C6H12O6.

No gas is used, in this case, no damage is done, and life goes on.

No, I mean gas as in gasoline. The thing you fill up cars with.

Oh, we don't call that gas here, and you used the word 'breath', so I misunderstood, sorry.

As for the useage of petrol, again, you have a point. However, considering that it's entirely possible to prevent it being burned without ending all life, it doesn't make that solution the only solution.

[ShiningRadiance]

Yet it makes it the quickest, most effective solution.

That doesn't make it the best solution.

The proposition is to prevent the impending death of all life on the planet due to overuse of fossil fuels by... ending all life on the planet.

Don't tell me you can't see the problem there?

[ShiningRadiance]

Not all life. Just humans, the greatest consumers... and cows.

It'll cause the other animals to live much, much longer.

[Bluetune]

Well the flaw in your statement earlier is that gas has NOT created damage to the environment. You can explain the damage done to the environment with several other variables. Mainly the sun and other greenhouses gasses BESIDES Co2 mainly water vapor and methane.

So in response to your theory I say I reject your reality and replace it with my own.


Besides what happens in the environment after the person dies from revenge doesn't have anything to do with the revenge itself. It's a consequence.

[ShiningRadiance]

No, it hasn't, but given enough time, it can. It's like an ant bite. All the gas in the world is an ant bite, but if you have enough, you could kill a human being with them.
