How do you differentiate between epistemology and ontology?
Every science has its own ontology, epistemology and consequently its own methodologies.
Ontology defines the fundamental categories of reality. Domain ontology as distinct from formal ontology is related to focus of study. Each research field has its own ontology. A biologist, who studies ants, differentiates the ants' specific constituent parts, actions and contexts. Similarly a sociologist will have implicit and/or explicit presuppositions about categories of reality that are fundamental and related in the human and social systems she/he studies. Where formal ontology inquiry is to say something general about reality, domain ontology says something specific about different areas of reality.
Epistemology defines how we can know and reason that reality. As for domain ontology, each research field has its own epistemology: The maps applied by the biologist studying ants, are traditionally different from the maps applied by the sociologist in her/his studies of interacting humans.
The methodologies of each of these two scientists have followed as different systems of investigative techniques within their focus of study. The biologist and the sociologist traditionally apply different procedures for accomplishing and approaching the phenomena they focus on. They use different scientific methods studying different domains with different epistemology and ontology.

- If you look back at the first murder in the Bible it will help you to see why people kill. In Genesis 4:6,7 we read that Cain was 'hot with anger', of course being just angry is not a reason to kill anyone, but here the writer uses a descriptive word, 'hot', thus implying an intense anger. Then God says to Cain 'there is sin crouching at the entrance, and for you is its craving; and will you, for your part, get the mastery over it?' As you may already have known we human are imperfect because we inherit it from Adam(Rom 5:12) and so our inclination is to sin (Gen 6:5). When someone lets his sinful thoughts dwell in them to the point that they get consumed by it the results can be devastating. Truth be told people kill for many different reasons but all these reasons are possible because of imperfection (2 Timothy 3:1-5).
- Because free will exists. Man is not basically good, he is sinful, and without a God fearing inner conviction, he is apt to do anything. God gave free will, because he did not want to create robots. He wanted man to love him of their own free will.
- Some murderers may mistakenly feel it is "fun."
- For pursuit of power, or some other goal.
- To prevent from being killed themselves, eg: in war.
- They could just have been freaking mad and thought that was a good idea in the heat of the moment. They could think it is the will of god, or an angel told them to kill. If these happen then they might mark him/her down for insanity. Not being able to tell right from wrong. It also could be in "cold blood" which is when they kill an innocent person for no reason, or they could just feel hatred for that person. There are different reasons why people kill, it kind of depends what species you are talking about. Animals, like rabbits, wolves, and foxes? Or human beings? Even though in reality humans are animals, too. Sometimes people kill because they feel it is an instinct, like they feel they are an animal. There is a disease that could make a person think he/she is a werewolf or some type of animal.
