A layman sotapanna can kill, I assure you of this.
Just curious, according to your view, when does the killing stop? Surely, for an arahant they don't kill. What about sakadagamis, anagamis? Do they kill too (according to your view)?
Arahants kill, they just don’t kill with intent.
Sotapannas and sakadagamis can kill with intent, as they are not masters of jhanas.
The anagamis and arahants have mastery of jhanas and IMO would be leading lives of greater seclusion and would be protected from mundane responsibilities.
According to you, no different between puthujjana and Ariya. Which is totally wrong view!
Have you check with Yama that you are not in the hell (lower realm) list instead?
May you be relax, happy, comfortable and free of dukkhas from hearing true dhamma.
May you gain unshakable confidence in Buddha, Dhamma and (Ariya) Sangha.

I think it’s due to relative purity
The arhat is too pure
Totally Bull as well. One who has seen Nibbana will never break 7 ariyan precepts in N8FP. It is impossible.
If you have this wrong view, lower realm is the destination for sure.

Let us know if you find out different
Yeah you have the wrong view.
The 8 nobles can't kill with intention even small insects. So not only an arahant.

This is too idealistic
This is to be Noble.
Even a small kill will land you on lower realms. That is just impossible for Noble who has attained the right view.
The Ariyan precepts maintain for 24/7 unbroken.

I agree with Cap, a sotapanna is not an arahant, you are putting the sotas wisdoms on par with an arahant.
There is fear in the sotas mind, this will lead to breaches in precepts.
