I thought you were a christain, such language. I guess i have been in a better place than you. - Reply to this comment
- Some crimes just call for that person/persons losing their live on the planet card. If we truly wished to make the death penalty a deterrent, we would publicly hold executions. Countries who do this have next to no violent crimes. Let people see how a person truly dies, not this putting your dog to sleep thing we do now.

- maxify55: You said "Execution is far better than solitary ever will be. With execution comes release from the torment of isolation."
My point exactly. I believe solitary confinement is a truly severe punishment that is more effective than capital punishment as a deterrence. - Reply to this comment

Such language for a christain. Do you think God will be offended or forgiving ? - Reply to this comment

I agree. Bush should be prosecuted for war crimes then executed. Then he could have claim to being the most hated president in history and the first one executed for war crimes. - Reply to this comment
- Oh, here we go again on the whole religious right anti-death-penalty argument.
Thirteen years. That''s repulsive. To do what should have been done in no more than two.
This creep had no right to live amongst us, and I''m GLAD that he''s gone.
Good riddance, roach boy. - Reply to this comment

A death sentence is justice, not murder. By your own religion we are only delivering him to the lord for juidgement. Does the bible not say an eye for an eye ? Is killing not one of the sins listed in the ten commandments ? If we follow your logic then why do chaplains go into combat and give forgiveness to soldiers and last rite4s, wouldn''t this also be a contradiction to Gods word if it were what you are saying ? - Reply to this comment

- I''''''''m often amazed out how many Christians, even Catholics, support the death penalty in complete indifference and indignance of God Himself. I mean you realize Jesus Christ was a victim of capital punishment? Do you think either He or his Father look lightly upon your acceptance of this? You are truly the condemned.

A reading of Romans will tell you to be in subjection to the authorities. A reading of Exodus and Leviticus will spell out death penalty offenses wrote in the Mosaic Law Covenant for God''''s chosen people. All of this is in the bible easily accessible ny any novice reader. Your question concerning about rather God is looking on has a specific answer. Yes he is. . . approvingly so.

Hey @$$hole, what "God''s Chosen People" do here on earth is no reflection of what God will do to those people as a result. You *** ignorant self-righteous hypocrit, do you really think that the actions, history and testimony of these people in the Bible is the will of God? By what measure? I mean Christ was sent to earth and betrayed for a reason. - Reply to this comment
