Finwitch:

I quite agree.

Consider these facts:

To eat you must kill, if not an animal, a bird (even unborn one, as 
an egg) or a fish, then at at least a plant.

In order to keep you healthy, white cells in your blood kill bacteria 
by the dozen.

In order for a fetus to develop properly some cells in its body must 
die.

One cell out of a million manages to fertilize the egg cell, the 
others die out.

Several cells in your body die every single day.

All that lives will die eventually, whatever you do.
