i am torn on this act Sad .. I mean I see that the bibles say to forgive your ememis. But I think life in jail is way to easy for them...

The bible says capital punishment is acceptable if administered by the government as a punishment for crimes.

Where? I'm not saying you are wrong.. I just need to study up on this issues.

I think he's referring to the laws contained in Leviticus and Deuteronomy in the old testament. However, in the new testament Christ renounces all of that. I maintain my stance that in the end the Bible does not condone death as punishment.

Wrong. The New Testament speaks about the state having the right to drawl the sword as well.

Ok, do you happen to know where it is in Leviticus and Deuteronomy. And where Christ goes against it in the New Testament?

He goes against it in Matthew 5:44 (which I posted earlier in the thread) and in the story where an adulteress is about to be stoned, but Jesus says "Let anyone among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her" (Jn 8:7) and then when no one can throw a stone he forgives her of her sin.

I don't know the exact places in the old testament but I know they're there

Liberty,

I see no reason to extend debate. If this passes I promise to tie this up in the courts with legal challenges.

John F? Tweed? Mike?
One more vote for the Forces of Good, please!



One more vote to get our taxes higher to pay for all the people that will be sentenced to life in prison? Bad idea, vote NAY Senators!
As I have already stated . . . the death penalty is more expensive than housing people for life!!!!!
Though it wouldn't be if it were carried out the StatesRights way.

And the StevenNick way.  Wink
Barbarians.

Humanitarians. Would you want someone who just raped your wife or daughers and took a knife to the throats of your entire family to live a easy life in prison?
