Re: is murder in self defence a sin? You mean like biblical sin or morally wrong?

:huh:
i dont want opinions. i want some proof of your answer.
Your asking a question that can only be an opinion, perhaps just to trip up religious people who claim the bible is proof.
In any case, here is my opinion
I don't think there are any sins. In the sense that there isn't a book somewhere up in the sky with tallys for or against my soul.
Thats ridiculous.

like you should defend yourself an kill the guy if you have to or should you jus let him kill you an have God judge him for his murder when his time comes?
i guess this question realy only applies to people who believe in God.
… the terminology is a bit odd, murder would usually be a generic wrongful killing, which means its always a bad thing, but if you mean is killing in self defence wrong... i doubt anyone will claim its ok to crack a babies skull open if it bites you, but if a bank robber is tryna blow your brains out its probably ok to turn the gun on him if its the only way to end it.
i dont think you can be clear cut without specific instances when it comes to these questions
… well how ever long we spend describing a situation we'll never get every single detail, so there's still room for the answer to depend on the unknown. You expect the answer to be "always yes" or "always no"?
