    Extractions: At the dawn of the 21st century, the death penalty is considered by most civilized nations as a cruel and inhuman punishment. It has been abolished de jure or de facto by 106 nations, 30 countries have abolished it since 1990. However, the death penalty continues to be commonly applied in other nations. China, the Democratic Republic of Congo, the United States and Iran are the most prolific executioners in the world. Indeed, the US is one of six countries (including also Iran, Nigeria, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Yemen) which executes people who were under 18 years-old at the time they committed their crimes. While international documents have restricted and in some cases even banned the death penalty, its application is still not against customary international law. Much debate continues in the US as to whether it constitutes an appropriate punishment, at least to the most heinous crimes. In recent years, the debate has been further fueled by the use of new technologies which have shown that a large proportion of people sentenced to death are, indeed, innocent.

As of 2005, 83 countries no longer authorized the penalty of death for any crimes. Another 13 countries authorized capital punishment only for exceptional crimes, such as crimes under military law and crimes committed in exceptional circumstances, such as during wartime. Amnesty International , a private organization working to abolish the death penalty, characterizes 22 other nations as “de facto abolitionist” because they have not conducted an execution in at least a decade or have made an international commitment not to carry out executions.

    Extractions: Capital Punishment in Biblical Perspective Capital Punishment (extreme punishment involving putting a criminal to death) is one of those hot political issues that many would rather not touch. This was highlighted by the recent media attention to the Tucker execution in February, 1998. Many who are opposed to it speak of it as being cruel, inhumane, even barbaric. They argue that it does not deter crime and should be abolished altogether. Even many who claim allegiance to Christ oppose it on the grounds that God forbids killing. Some of these will carry picket signs with the words, "Thou shalt not kill." What are we to make of it all? As Christians, we should not be so much interested in what organized groups or educated "authorities" have to say. We are not interested in public opinion and national polls. I’m really not even that concerned about whether or not it really does deter crime. Our interest should be what the Bible teaches, as this reveals God’s mind on the subject.

WHEREAS, the 1958 General Convention of the Episcopal Church opposed capital punishment on a theological basis that the life of an individual is of infinite worth in the sight of Almighty God; and the taking of such a human life falls within the providence of Almighty God and not within the right of Man; and WHEREAS, this opposition to capital punishment was reaffirmed at the General Convention of 1969; and WHEREAS, a preponderance of religious bodies continue to oppose capital punishment as contrary to the concept of Christian love as revealed in the New Testament; and WHEREAS, we are witnessing the reemergence of this practice as a social policy in many states; and WHEREAS, the institutionalized taking of human life prevents the fulfillment of Christian commitment to seek the redemption and reconciliation of the offender; and WHEREAS, there are incarceration alternatives for those who are too dangerous to be set free in society; therefore be it RESOLVED, the House of Bishops concurring, that this 66th General Convention of the Episcopal Church reaffirms its opposition to capital punishment and calls on the dioceses and members of this church to work actively to abolish the death penalty in their states; and be it further

The World's Magazine: g21.net HOME NAIROBI - It is not always that events in the United States or elsewhere in the First World sway on-going discourse in distant places like East Africa so directly. Yet, this is exactly what recent reports of the pending execution of a convict in the state of Texas for crimes committed in the early 1980s and the execution, a few months ago, of 36-year-old convicted African American killer, Gary Graham, in Huntsville, Texas, for the 1981 murder of 53-year-old Bobby Lambert outside a Houston supermarket, have done For only a week after parliament in Kenya threw out a motion by human rights lawyer and opposition member of parliament, Mr. Kiraitu Murungi, to outlaw capital punishment, these reports have again forcefully re-directed debate onto the issue of the suitability of judicial execution as a deterrent to violent crimes and other capital offences.

The law on capital punishment prior to 1957 What is often forgotten these days is that before the historic decisions in 1964 and 1965, the possibility of hanging had already been restricted in Britain to a very small number of murders with special circumstances. In fact a big factor in the final abolition bill's success was that it was widely felt that a sensible division to capital and non-capital murders, as attempted with the legislation then in effect, had turned out to be impossible. Parliament's finally finding hangings entirely inappropriate was the end result of a long process. The use of death as punishment, already known from the earliest history of Britain, reached its all-time peak in the 18th century, when Parliament continuously enlarged the already long list of capital crimes. Finally over two hundred offences were punishable by death, among them stealing in a shop to the value of five shillings, stealing anything at all privily from a person, sending threatening letters, sacrilege, and cutting down a tree (Trevelyan 1944:304-5; Bishop 1965:185). Starting in the 1820s, this 'bloody code' was gradually repealed, partly owing to the general rise of humanitarianism and enlightenment, but also because juries were less and less willing to convict people for theft and other minor felonies if that meant they were to die (Trevelyan 1944:305 and 446-7).

JOHN LOCKE, Second Treatise of Government Monstrous Deeds, Cold-Blooded Killers, and the Politics of Capital Punishment Bob Westberry, Claude Medearis, Linda Florence, and Erin Langer never returned to their homes or loved ones. At 9:02 A.M. on that April morning they and 164 others were killed by a massive explosion that gutted the Alfred Murrah Federal Building. Investigators quickly determined that the explosion was caused by a powerful bomb. Suspicion first focused on overseas groups. Was the bombing the work of Arab terrorists, striking deep in America's heartland? As the New York Times reported, "So far no conclusive evidence has emerged that Arabs played any role in the bombing. Indeed, Federal officials have described the two known suspects as 'white,' a racial designation that seems to leave open their ethnic origin. Yet the speculation of Muslim involvement continues, fed by some news reports that have not been confirmed."
