The "like this" is sort of irrelevant anyway. Regardless of where you stand on fate and destiny as metaphysical concepts, humans are all in a very real sense fated for the grave (at least, barring unprecedented technological innovations). You could just as well make the (transparently murderous) argument that
"Well, people are all going to die anyway, so what's the harm in hastening things along a little?" *stab*
Or as an exchange between BBC's Sherlock and Moriarty went:
Sherlock
"People have died!"
Moriarty
"That's what people do!"
