This sounds morbid, but we all know that people can kill each other because of money, anger, vengeance... etc. But what is the main reason for these? Is it because of our current society? or is it because there are really certain circumstances when we act just like the animals?
What is your opinion about this?

We though call ourselves a human but our base nature is that of an animal. The semblance of human nature is seen in us because that animal nature is dormant in us.
Whenever that animal nature comes to the surface of consciousnesses, we are bound to reveal our animal nature.
All humans have a component in their mind to control the desire for forbidden wishes. To kill too is a sort of a forbidden wish. In those whom this component is absent go and kill, without any qualms of conscience.
People kill others because their animal nature is more pronounced in them than others are.

i am also confused about this just like you....i also want to know why people do that...i think main reason behind is anger and jealousy ....terrorist are jealous of united states and india thats why they trying to kill people for united states and india...its just an example about jealousy....why they cant leave with peace why they want blood ....this questions are the beggest myths of the world...some people do violence with the name of religion ....but in every religion's book, peace is been written as an important thing....then why do they misuse the name of religion...but i think the main reason is jealousy.....

If humans have a problem with other people or a country has a problem with another country it would be nice if it were completed in a manner that humanely and not by way of such animals is to kill. What a cruel, if a country or people doing it.
I really hate killing, I hope all the people also hate against murder, so that no more incidents that have damaged the killing of another human right to life.

I hate killing too! I agree with you. We should just talk about things first before fighting and killing each other. But unfortunately, people are too stubborn for that. In our history class, it is all about killing and I feel sad because they kill each other to take others lives and take over others properties for the sake of money and glory :(

Killing and destroying,according to some noted psychologists,are basical human nature.It is deep down in our soul and the dark side emerges when we are irritated or affected by the outer,then the bad thing happens.Conseqently,we need to incorporate the tranquil and peaceful mind into our life and be ourselves in a good way.

People kill each other because they want vengeance. They kill for different kind of reasons in different circumstances in different situations and issues they are facing with. Like someone would kill someone because of money, wealth and power. Or like people will kill someone because they are asked to kill that for him. But there are instances in which killing a person depends on reasons. Like You have to kill that someone because he or she is a threat to human society. Killing someone is not the solution to a problem instead your adding more problem on it because basically no matter what reasons are its still a sin.

One who doesn't know the flavor of love and confession and who loses patience will surely go for killing people. This may happen due to any reason and may be have mentioned by you or not. But ultimate result is killing people.
I feel this should not happen in any case and circumstances must give stable power to each individual to control them self to control circumstances.

There are two types of people who kill, one who kills because of hatred and the other a person who does not have hatred but have judgment that the person has to die. About why killers do their job, there are various reasons. One is feeling that it is appropriate to kill, a state of mind where the killer thinks not being able to kill would be cowardly. Second reason is when the victim does not show any interest with living so the person who kills have the clue that he indeed has to end the life of the other. With the world full of frustration, it is no longer easy to keep a cool head and refrain from engaging in violent acts. It is therefore necessary to begin with simple self-control to avoid more people getting killed.

Yes this is a big question why people kill to each other this is a big reason to know but i think unemployment is the big reason behind it and many human disorders behind it and many kind of social disorders and the circumstances behind it so these are the point for these things.

No body will actually want to kill people except for those who has mentally ill. We know there are Laws guiding our behavior, we normally don't kill because we know the consequences. For people who killed, that may be due to in certain occasion where they lose control of temper and make this mistake.
There are people they killed by order. In war, soldier kill because they are ordered to do so.
