I find the same in me.

Just curious if as people get older they are more likely to not want to destroy life or are the number of people heading opposite directions about the same?

Would also be curious if RZehr's feeling is something that "comes upon" people who are actively aligning themselves with the nature and character of Christ more than it does upon those who are not.

The old woodcutter spoke again. “It is impossible to talk with you. You always draw conclusions. Life is so vast, yet you judge all of life with one page or one word. You see only a fragment. Unless you know the whole story, how can you judge?"

Is it biblical? Is it Christlike? Is it loving? Is it true? How can I find out?
