It's cheaper and he may realize what he has done and will suffer through it.

Christians for the death penalty. That's another chuckle. I never knew ''Thou shalt not kill'' had a footnote.

I have not specifically said that I just said it feels like justice perhaps. The Christian response is, as you know, that we do not judge and must ultimately forgive as we have been forgiven but even though Jesus was against individual murder i "think" he still was down with mosaic law during his life on earth and that included cap pun. dont quote me on it though.

No worries, that was not aimed at you in particular. I just remember someone saying it from way back.

It is funny on that note, however, to note the contradiction between the mosaic law of capital punishment and the cornerstone of the entire mosaic law, the ten commandments. Contradiction #123456.

Gave me a hoot, anyway.
