Our species "homo sapiens" is the most violent on the planet. We kill for food, fun, to impress, gain advantage, improve our position, defense, protect our homeland, because of a mental disorder, etc. We currently have armed conflicts going on all over the planet. In comparison to animals who kill for food, mating, defense. they kill for a lot less reasons. We do a lot more killing than them for a much larger variety of various reasons. We have not evolved beyond killing! Just look at the news any day of the week and it is easy to see!
I agree 100%. Which is all the more reason why those of us that through natural selection have evolved a bit more intelligence than most should not be too quick to 'up the ante'.
