In the middle east for those poor women accused of being unfaithful... they are stoned to death.

I guess that it really all depends on whether you are being executed or are the one that wants it to happen.
The worst from the point of view of the person that wants 'justice' is one that is quick. They seem to want people to have to suffer.
The worst from the point of view of the person that is being executed is the slow, painful and degrading one. They seem to want people to hurt.
I don't like murderers or paedophiles or rapists (etc, etc), but why, if they are going to be very dead in a pretty short while should it make anyone else feel better?
If there must be a death penalty - then get it all over and done with ASAP.
The worst death penalty must be the one that was committed unjustly.

I think that the anticipation would probably be worse than many of the death penalties , they should leave them solitary confinement and make them sweat over there fate.

Do they still have Chinese water torture? I think being forced to work in one of those chemical plants in China might as well be a death sentence.

In parts of Asia/Middle East they still cut off your head as a death penalty.

They are in fact all bad. Including the electric chair and lethal injection.
I don't see how any christian can support man doing gods work, and as an atheist, I have seen far too many wrongful convictions to say we should be condeming anyone to death.
Lets not throw stones when we live in glass houses.

The long wait till you reach your executioner kills the soul and faith in humanity long before physical death-no matter what the instrument of death is.

My husband (egyptian) says that in Egypt they push child molestors off a mountain.
They need to send the perv who confessed to killing JonBenet Ramsey as well as all other pedophiles.

Gas chamber, because it's slower than being shot or electricuted, even a lethal injection is quiker than gas.

Muslims hang people from crane jibs and cut peoples heads off in public for fun. The crime is something like an unpaid TV license.
