Murder: A Philosophical Debate

It is still one of the most heinous, if not THE most heinous act one human can commit against another.

Yet. we still do it.

Not a day goes by without hearing about it somewhere and even by the time I finish writing and you reading someone will have committed or discovered one.

And with even greater technology to solve them, larger penal systems and penalties, it still happens.

Some believe that in a more enlightened society than what was in place hundreds of years ago it should be reduced.

So...why in your opinion do we still do it? Instinct? Mental defect? Wantonness?

Do you think it's committed more or less?

Are the punishments for murder enough of a deterrent?
