I feel state- sanction killing is an act of revenge. If I killed someone‚ because they killed someone in my family I will

    Assumptions “There has never been a law of physics that did not demand ‘space’ and ‘time’ for its statement.” John Archibald Wheeler Starting Assumption: Physics today has a large body of experimental observations and mathematical equations that correspond to the experimental observations.
