It's bad because muder takes someones life away. Each person only gets one life to live. It's extremely cruel to have it taken away.

Because, you are taking a persons life and extinguishing him/her from the surface of the earth, God gave us this life, so we cant take it away....

Our life and the life of others do not belong to us. They belong to our creator and only he can decide to give it or take it away. If you take someone's life you take them away from family, friends, you hurt a lot of people not just the one you kill. No one has a right to decide to take a life. On the other hand I don't know what to say about what to do with serial killers and such, I guess there does come a time when a decision has to be made about that.

Murder is a bad thing because it involves a destruction of one's life intentionally. Intention means going through a lot of thinking and pondering about putting an end to one's life through adopting a plan or a scheme to execute such plan. Of course it is bad because We certainly do not have the right to cut of one's life since we are not the one who gave life to each other.

We were not born out of our own will, the same way we have no rights on harming ourselves or others...there cud be many punishments instead
