Sometimes it is only a week or so. Stiil, think about it.

Suppose they never repent, they neverfind God or the truth, and they are still spiritually lost when they do get to death row. Then you kill them and send them strsight to hell, then it's our fault.

Or suppose they do find God and change. They're different, and they deserve to live then.

So either they find God, and we kill a good, changed, sorry person, who I think should get to live, or they ahven't found God and we send them to hell. I don't think either is right. The bible clearly states in many places, 'Do not kill.' So I stick to that.

It is never a week... they set a date... and generally there are so many repeals they have to wait at least 10 years or so... that is enough time

Suppose they never repent, they neverfind God or the truth, and they are still spiritually lost when they do get to death row. Then you kill them and send them strsight to hell, then it's our fault.

Most criminals... don't think there is a god... or they do... but they have been driven insane... and I believe that if god really wanted peopleto go to heaven... since he has "ULTIMATE POWER" he would make them find him... remmeber how he has that much power... and he wants people in heaven so why not bring them?

Or suppose they do find God and change. They're different, and they deserve to live then.

So just because they picked up a bible and pretended to find god they can go free... sorry for my language I am in a bad mood today... but F**K that... They should die for killing so many innocent people that probably did BELIEVE in god That is like saying community service is enough to payback destroying a town -_- They deserve to die...

So either they find God, and we kill a good, changed, sorry person

"A tiger never changes there stripes" And I don't care if they changed... they are guilty for what they did... and should be punished

'Do not kill.' So I stick to that. the bible says do not kill... so why did he do it?... He takes a life... maybe more... he deserves to be in Hell... even thogh there isn't one

Let me put it this way.

You are against God, therefore you are His enemy,a nd you have sinned against Him (as have I, btu I'm trying to make a point). The bible clearly states that the wages of sin is death, so basically - you deserve to die! You do! You should be dead, killed for what you have done in your life.

But you aren't, and you know why? Forgiveness. God loves you. He has every right to smite you from the face of the earth but He doesn't because He simply loves you and wants to forgive you.

Killing someone just to get back at them for killing others is revenge, not forgiveness. Revenge just ends up killing off everyone. Only when there is forgiveness can people really get along. Eveyrone makes mistakes and deserves to die, but God forgives us. So why shouldn't we forgive others?
