Murder, is murder, is murder.

I'm no fan of Islam, believe me, but your logic is naive at best, and borderline racist at worst.



It was a reference to the development of society. I'd hope that we have progressed past bronzed-aged morality, or should we push for the re-introduction of human sacrifices, too?
So you think it's more humane to lock someone up for life? to me that seems more cruel. IF a "life sentence, really means a LIFE SENTENCE" I know if i was going to be locked up forever, i'd prefer the death penalty. But then again a "life sentence" in Canada doesn't really mean LIFE, does it? and that's the problem.
