Yes I am aware of that. All the goods we own, all the food we eat.. something died in the process. This is an inescapable fact of life. I suppose 'God' is a killer, indirectly. If 'God' ''creates'' than 'God' is responsible. Alternatively, if 'God' is some kind of 'soul' than this means 'God' took or has need of a 'body' and has to kill as well, directly or indirectly, to survive. Spirituality and various abstractions ((such as ''love'')) allow us to distance ourselves from that, at least mentally, so we may entertain ourselves with the thought experiment that we are ''above it all'' when every action we take in this world shows otherwise. The human *mind* enters its (mini) stages of terror when it thinks too deeply about these concerns, and we have entire traditions and religions worrying over it and trying to 'transcend' it ((i.e. all religions)). What we often may fail to notice is that we got caught up in our own *mind*..
