Does an ethical attitude verify violence?
this would technicaly be yes
no-one likes violence, but it is part of us
we can not deny it any more than we can love or procreation
its society that demands that we do
but society also doesn't seem to like the act of sex, shows of pda- public displays of affection, a child having a tantrum and mother having a breakdown,
basically society doesn't really agree with anything we do or don't do say or don't say and violence is one in a long list of things we are but not allowed to be.
its an ideal that we just simply are not able to live up to,
so in order to truly study human nature we have to look at violence, anger hate etc the same way we do love, kindness and peace etc
anyone who studys animals and humans alike will have to be aware of our naturistic tenancy towards violence and accept it as part of us or they wouldn't be properly studying humanity as it is, only as they wish it to be
