I'm not a Christian either and neither is Wordwizard. That has nothing to do with it.

It's handy to close the polls once you've got the result you want.


There's no reason to believe that Christ would have wanted to "wipe such murderers out" You're projecting.

Nice little conspiracy theory you got there, Iona ;)

Meanwhile, back to reality...
386 people voted.
Yes vote was clearly ahead of No.

Yes. Child rape, abuse, etc. Murderers, arsonists. The first should be one time offense should be DEAD. No pardons, no leniency, and definitely no calling it an illness.

Well, I don't really care, anyway, James, since the result shows nothing about the rights or wrongs of capital punishment. It shows only the consciousness of the voters.

I agree, Wordwizard. We're no better than murderers ourselves if we kill others. We're not going to develop spiritually if we kill others, no matter the reason, or excuse.

I believe no because dearh is a release from the crines that have been commited. Rotting in prision forces self reflection and forces the person to be reminded of their crimes everyday they wake up in a prison jumpsuit.
