In pre-historic times , man hunted only animals – and to
satisfy hunger.
Now , even as “ Civilized “ man continues to kill
animals for hunger, he has also mastered the art / science of killing other man
for ,
Ø Anger
/ Jealousy / Greed / Sex or even Love
Ø Property
/ Money / Pride / Possession / Power , or even Religion
And succeeded in giving this act , different “ Names “ (
depending upon one-at-a-time or many simultaneously ) , such as ,
Ø War
Ø Genocide
Ø Ethnic
Cleansing
Ø Communal
Riots
Ø Murder
Ø Homicide
Ø Slaughter
Ø Honor-Killing
…………………. etc
Then he also “ Murders “ many people through negligence /
dereliction of duty when he becomes “ Directly but Unintentionally “ responsible
for ,
Ø Sinking
of leaky boats
Ø Rickety
buses falling into ravines
Ø Fire
engulfing theatres and malls
Ø Poorly
maintained buildings crashing
Ø Trains
de-railing
Ø Driving
while drunk ……… etc
And now , we pride ourselves on being “ Civilized “ !
While animals / birds / insects continue to kill , only
if they are hungry !
