The problem with moral standpoints like you can do what you think is right is that anyone can claim that according to their morals killing for no reason is not immoral. You get stuck there. I am hoping it's nothing as drastic as that
because no one has the right to hurt another person intentionally.
Also, I don't think it will be cowardice on your end to skip punishment. It would be cowardice if YOU thought doing this certain task was wrong and then ran from the punishment. In my opinion, undertaking a task when you know you can fail is bravery because no one wants to fail.
Haha, I hope it's nothing like vast destruction
