A good distinction is this: Morally speaking, murder is often considered inherently wrong, but ethically speaking, violence is a tool, and the ethical nature of an event involving violence can only be correctly assessed with all of the set up present. Self-defense is largely considered wholly ethical. Cold-blooded violence is often considered completely unethical. The difference is morals apply so variously that it really can differ person to person on things. Ethics are things we often consider "laws", though I don't really like that word because ethics, too, have a nature of subjectivity to them.

>> [_] Anon 2293004 >># Not even that hard to pull this off. You can use what amounts to a steel trash bin and a bit of high-temp clay and a bag of charcoal to make a furnace that can melt aluminum.

>> [_] Anon 2293146 Anything that has nerves can feel pain, even ants. If they didn't have a pain reflex they wouldn't be able to recognize when they're being attacked. Only creatures with developmental disabilities that cause them to be unable to react to the hormones released by damaged nerves are unable to feel pain, and those are rare in nature, because the inability to recognize an attack is strongly selected against.
>> [_] Anon 2293148 >># Ability to react to damage is not the same thing as 'pain'. Ants have no concept of time, no higher level function of any sort. An ant cannot 'fear', nor can it understand what is happening to it. It's reaction to pain is more on the line of your knee jerking when the doc tests your reflexes, an automatic, unthinking, scripted reaction. On top of that, this doesn't even leave them time to 'feel' that much. Thermal shock is far more lethal to smaller creatures (large surface area means faster heat absorption to critical organs), so the extreme temperature would literally fry them alive inside of half a second, the entire HIVE was likely dead in the first 10 seconds, with no single ant being alive longer than 2 seconds from when the heat hit it.
