People of very conservative views often support the death penalty. Some, but not all, are bigoted about homosexuality. The reverse is also true: some homophobes support the death penalty but many do not.
It's not particularly helpful to link these two issues because the arguments for and against them are based on different premises and only the most small-minded ignoramuses hold them as part of a 'package' of beliefs that are often associated with fundamentalist religion.
The reason most heterosexuals are accepting of divorce is because, unlike the death penalty and homosexuality, they see it as something that directly concerns their lives.

Same sex sexual relations are spoken of sinful in ALL cases, in the Bible. Ending a marriage seems to be acceptable under SOME circumstances, and the death penalty is COMMANDED BY GOD for certain vicious crimes.
However, in our thoroughly incompetent 'justice' system in America, since DNA testing has PROVED that fully 1/3 of the time, the WRONG PERSON IS ON DEATH ROW, I oppose the death penalty in America.

Any sexual relationships outside of the 100% selfless marital embrace between a man and a woman is immoral.
That being said, there is no place for the death penalty in todays society. Even the worst offender can be separated from society permanently.
Divorce is a selfish act on the part of one or both members. There is nothing moral about this.

Because some people practice big "I" and little "u." They feel that whatever they do or say is right but you are wrong. Just like that person that complained about me sharing the video about the "Native American Ten Commandments" because I believe in those commandments. That person was sick of what I believe but they don't have a problem with posting what they believe. Have you ever had someone call you on the telephone because they wanted to blow off steam? But they want to do all the talking and don't want to listen to anything you have to say? It's the same thing.

They usualy see all of those issues as a matter of morals. And their morals lead them to believe that the death penalty and divorce are okay but same-sex marriage is not okay.

a million. we at the instant are not a Christian united states of america. we are a rustic in line with some Judeo-Christian recommendations. there's a distinction. keep in mind the 1st exchange states that the government shall make no regulations appropriate to the practice of religion. 2. no longer all conservatives are area of the non secular precise. 3. there are various liberals who oppose gay marriage and are in want of the dying penalty from time to time 4. yet to respond to your question, the Bible is contradictory in lots of circumstances. relatively than focusing on the "Thou Shall no longer Kill" provision, those in want of the dying penalty concentration on "a watch For a watch" (meaning that in case you're taking a existence, your existence is forfeit). by ability of ways, i'm conservative, yet i'm no longer Christian. i do no longer think that any non secular scripture ought to have a touching on our secular regulations. i think that 2 consenting adults ought to have the perfect to marry inspite of gender or sexual orientation. and that i'm against the dying penalty different than in circumstances of actually heinous crimes the place DNA information proves that the guy is responsible previous a shadow of a doubt.

Speaking just for myself, I don't make moral judgements on same-sex relationships. As a heterosexual, however, I find the various types of homosexual sex physically repulsive, almost to the point of experiencing nausea. But then I suppose homosexuals feel much the same about heterosexual sex.

Wow, what an open ended, loaded question. What criteria are you basing this gross generalization on, may I ask?.
I haven't seen, read or even heard of any research that would corroborate to the facts of the statement within your question thus making your question lacking merit in its basic formulation and structure,.and has more or less baselined its own quantitative reality in the real of opinion that cannot be answered without creating an egually baselined quantitatively gross generalization, lacking merit, without a foundation of truth in its structure and entirety and would thus have to be considered to be flush within the realm of opinion and needs to be addressed at your nearest water cooler or coffee clutch. SORRY

I am a Christian and all three are equally harmful to the soul,
body and spirit of the persons who are involved. There is nothing sacred in any of these.
