You just said you were against anything that destroys human life...then in the very next sentence you said you were pro-death penalty :confused:




Anyways, I am a registered Democrat but don't care about party lines. I will vote based on the candidates, not their party.

I am for a smaller government, against abortion, against the death penalty, pro-adult stem cell research, against embryonic stem cell research, and have no problem with gay marriage.

You're right, and I did not contradict myself. Maybe I should have inserted the word "innocent" in front of anything that destroys innocent human life, such as abortion or stem cell research.

The death penalty is a very biblical belief. In the book of Romans, Paul talks about how the governing authorities only should have the right to take the life of a criminal. He means that government should be responsible for justly taking the life of a criminal in punishment to their crime, and not a single human to take it in revenge. I believe that cold-blooded and pre-meditated murder is punishable by governmental controlled death. I don't believe that an unwanted pregnancy either by choice or not, or the research of a fetus is punishable by death.
