who are we to judge anyone and decide whether they live or die

i aint gon say god is taking care of the scum of the earth
but i think we should leave it to him ta decide who stays and goes

besides yes people DO commit horrible crimes
that i would not be able ta live wit ever
but some people DO deserve second chances
or atleast a lifetime of punishment and time ta think bout it
and ask forgiveness from god...not from the court system

In the sense of Christianity and Christian run nations it's purely hypocrisy to instate a death penalty. It basically says that your opinion is more holy than anothers or more correct or more sensible, whatever you want to call it, which then in turn takes away the thought that everyone's equal. I mean if someone rapes and kills my family I want them to die, no doubt, but I aint gunna sit here and take God's powers into my own hands, that being revenge and shit.

Or at least I'll try. *shrugs*
