What do you <em>want</em> to happen in the the rest of the ST?
Time

This thread is called what do you want to happen not how you want it to happen. Just list the main plot points of your script here and the whole thing in the proper subforum. I know it’s not frequented that much, but that’s probably because most people don’t want to read the walls of text that such stories usually are. Forcing these walls of text on us here is highly annoying.

It doesn’t have to be specific.

Why is murder wrong? When is killing right? Are animals entitled to equal rights as people in terms of killing? Are fetuses entitled to equal rights as born humans?

But most important, why?

Murder is a tricky one…killing someone in general with no provocation is the ultimate wrong doing because you’re excreting your will upon that person in the most potent manner. And not only are you ending a person but you are ending what that particular person could have become. But on the flip side I think murder is justified if it’s to save an innocent life or if the law is to inept to put the murderer away.

Is it really wrong? We in the modern world talk as if it is a given, but might not humans be a stronger, better species if we allowed for more natural selection? Survival of the fittest would allow for superior genetics, and we might not be plagued with so many physical and mental illnesses. Humans could utilize their natural aggression to better the species as a whole.

“Superior genetics” is an arbitrary, human-made concept. Genetical diversity is the most important thing to ensure survival of a species. If we thin out our genepool to follow some ideal, we will become more vulnarable to a drastic change in our environment. Therefore, the survival of as many people as possible is desirable, whereas killing people is wrong.
