How so? Where was my intent to have anyone die?
Your intent was to allow a murder to occur because you are unable to reconcile the ethical difference between "murder" and "killing". Therefore you have made a choice (which defines a form of proactivity) to expressely allow an evil act, and as such has assisted the completion of that act.

More petty semantics. Swap the word "murder" for the word "kill" in my post and my point remains unchanged.
Umm, no, this is not "petty" semantics. The word "murder" and the word "killing" mean very different things, and can have a great bearing upon the ethics and morality of a given scenario.

If you don't want your points to be contested due to what you are calling "petty semantics", please just use the proper words to express your thoughts.
