With regards to my last entry with regards to the term necessary, I've been thinking more about it and if we define necessary as involving and only involving causing of suffering and death where necessary to defend one's self or someone else against being intensionally harmed in a manner that breaches their basic rights, then I would be fine with that. In other words, if someone needs to harm somone else as a matter of self defense or defense of someone else and they only use the amount of force required to do so then that might be a justifiable use of the term necessary when saying something like: It is morally wrong to cause unnecessary suffering or death in others.
