    Because Murder is the UNLAWFUL premeditated taking of another human's life.

    It is the definition of an illegal act.

    What you want to ask is "Why is it illegal to kill another human in some circumnstances".

    Think through what would happen if it was legal. I could kill you if I felt like it. See why now?
