You don't get it. My "beliefs" have nothing to do with that matter. The fact appears to be that there is no absolute morality- I see no proof whatsoever for this. And societies do what they do. Whether what society does is right or wrong depends on your personal and subjective opinion- whether you base that opinion as I do on a philosophy of empathy, or whether you base it on religion.

So your question is irrelevant.

But to answer it anyway, of course I would have a problem with it. I said earlier I have a problem with ALL killing. But the fact that I subjectively have a problem with it does NOT make it in any absolute sense right or wrong.
