That's why I don't use them to illustrate my point about anything. As I've grown older and hopefully wiser, I find myself moving further and further from the church.

Revenge is evil.<BR/><BR/>Having a Jewish mother, I have no pity for Saddam, he has been an anti-sematic madman. I wish him long imprisoned life, surrounded by his enemies, always having to look over his shoulder, with no peace or conveniences of modern life. I want him to be punished for his crimes. Putting him to death will release him from punishment (in this world, at least) <BR/><BR/>I know people who are Pro-Lifers, yet for the Death Penalty. How does that make sense?<BR/><BR/>One last thing, Bible Quotes are useless. Any point can be contradicted by another Bible quote.FreakyNickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09856040368830323676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9612609.post-1162899902762073152006-11-07T03:45:00.000-08:002006-11-07T03:45:00.000-08:00The death penalty is wrong in so many ways.

If that were true, why do we need to be the ones to exact it? My dad is very religious and constantly quotes the "if a man shed blood, by man so shall his blood be shed" verse to me every time we talk about the death penalty. Those two verses seem to contradict each other. I'm not completely against the death penalty. My only caveat is that the evidence against someone be 100% accurate 100% of the time. Otherwise, no death penalty.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9612609.post-1162869948862822942006-11-06T19:25:00.000-08:002006-11-06T19:25:00.000-08:00Well, I'm not a Christian, but repeals will go on ...Well, I'm not a Christian, but repeals will go on for years I suspect. <BR/><BR/>Can voting machines be tampered with?
