You're not putting them to Death, you're just helping them to see God quicker.

I agree, specially that as it shows lots of them are Innocent people, or they are in the death cell for years, which is cruel to think of someone having harrow of death every night , and thinking that the next days are his last,

i personally think in order to take life, you probably aren't afraid of death. i think the death penalty is giving them the easy way out. they should be forced to sit in a 4 x 4 cell for the rest of their life with no contact with any human beings. they should have to think about what they've done every second of every day.

In the Bible we are cammanded to obey our government if they do not go agaisnt God's laws. In the Old Testament it is written that he who muders, should be put to death. Also if the war is just, i.e.defending a weaker nation wrongly attacked. The Bible says, "God is a 'man' of war."

I agree. The only time death is warrented is when the person is an immediate danger to others.

I think some crimes deserve the death penalty. You don't think Ted Bundy deserved to fry in the electric chair for all those murders???

I agree. I dont like the death penalty either, however I dont lose any sleep at night when a murderer is killed.

God established human government in Genesis.
Maybe you personally cannot stomach the thought of execution, but don't deny other's the right to fulfill God's Word.

If you believe in Karma then a person on a killing spree would be a prime candidate to kill. Your actually helping them from accumulating more bad Karma.
Its all relative...despite what your preacher says.
