Granny - they ALL are morally wrong. Doesn't mean you shouldn't do it. Sex, drugs, alcohol abuse, and all that shizzle is immoral, but ye still do it. No one is perfect, just gotta know how to be forgiven in your own religious teachings. If you don't believe in forgiveness, then your probably not the kinda person who really worries about morals anyhow.

Plus you ask what if killing 1 saves 100. Well then the problem comes in, who makes that decision. If killing my mother saves the lives of 100 strangers in some far off land I've never heard of, is that worth it to me and my family?

Is a fetus a life? If so is killing abortion doctors wrong? Is killing off government officials that support the death penalty?

I mean, here are lots of real grey areas like those. Depending on where you fall the line of ethics, not morality is where you judge this. There is black and white, but there also is the fact we aren't perfect and sometimes have to do what we have to do to make things just.
