Home TV Radio Talk ... A-Z Index MONDAY 19th September 2005 Text Only Should we reintroduce capital punishment in Britain? Capital punishment means that a convicted murderer can be sentenced to death - killed because of the severity of their crimes. Capital punishment was suspended for five years in 1965. In 1970 it was permanently abolished in Britain. Opinion polls show that the majority of people in Britain would like to see the reintroduction of capital punishment. Feeling is particularly high after a highly publicised murder (especially when the victim is a child). There have been a number of votes in Parliament, since 1970, considering the reintroduction of capital punishment. Each one has been defeated by over 100 votes. Activity 6 - Capital punishment Here are a number of statements that have been used in debates about the reintroduction of the death penalty. Are they arguing for or against this kind of punishment? Sort the statements into two piles - those that argue for capital punishment and those that would be used in an argument against it.

Send it to a friend! The army of 1914 was, as all armies are, governed by regulations and military law. Military law in the British Army has always been an extension of criminal law, which means that there are military offences in addition to those that would be tried by a civil court. Most minor offences, up to battalion or regiment level, were dealt with by the unit commander. Major offences were dealt with by court-martial and were referred to higher formation command. There, they would invariably call for the Provost Marshall (PM) or Assistant Provost Marshall (APM) who was responsible for the maintenance of discipline and the military police within that formation. The System The basic premise of the system in peacetime was, if it is between soldiers, it's military, if civilians are involved, it's civil. On active service, everything was military including those crimes that would have been tried by a civil court. Unit and sub-unit commanders had the job of hearing the offence. In practice, it was usually the Company

LU Home LU Updates Receive LU-Announce First Things Avery Cardinal Dulles Among the major nations of the Western world, the United States is singular in still having the death penalty. After a five–year moratorium, from 1972 to 1977, capital punishment was reinstated in the United States courts. Objections to the practice have come from many quarters, including the American Catholic bishops, who have rather consistently opposed the death penalty. The National Conference of Catholic Bishops in 1980 published a predominantly negative statement on capital punishment, approved by a majority vote of those present though not by the required two–thirds majority of the entire conference. Pope John Paul II has at various times expressed his opposition to the practice, as have other Catholic leaders in Europe. Some Catholics, going beyond the bishops and the Pope, maintain that the death penalty, like abortion and euthanasia, is a violation of the right to life and an unauthorized usurpation by human beings of God’s sole lordship over life and death. Did not the Declaration of Independence, they ask, describe the right to life as “unalienable”?

U.S. Catholic Bishops’ Statement on Capital Punishment November, 1980 In 1974, out of a commitment to the value and dignity of human life, the U.S. Catholic Conference, by a substantial majority, voted to declare its opposition to capital punishment. As a former president of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops pointed out in 1977, the issue of capital punishment involves both “profound legal and political questions as well as ‘important moral and religious issues,’” and so we find that this issue continues to provoke public controversy and to raise moral questions that trouble many. This is particularly true in the aftermath of widely publicized executions in Utah and Florida and as a result of public realization that they are awaiting execution in various prisons. 1. Purposes of Punishment Allowing for the fact that Catholic teaching has accepted the principle that the state has the right to take the life of a person guilty of an extremely serious crime, and that the state may take appropriate measures to protect itself and its citizens from grave harm, nevertheless, the question for judgment and decision today is whether capital punishment is justifiable under present circumstances. Punishment, since it involves the deliberate infliction of evil on another, is always in need of justification. This has normally taken the form of indicating some good which is to be obtained through punishment or an evil which is to be warded off. The three justifications traditionally advanced for punishment in general are retribution, deterrence, and reform.

May 11, 2001 Episode no. 437 Current Stories Military Chaplains' Hurricane Relief Efforts United Nations Millennium Development Conservative Christian Law Schools Headlines: This Week in Religion News BOB ABERNETHY (anchor): The fate of Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh has triggered a national debate over the death penalty in the religious communities. This week, more than 65 American religious leaders asked President Bush not to execute McVeigh and to impose a moratorium on all Federal executions. Leaders of the Episcopal Church, Presbyterian Church USA, the United Church of Christ, Catholics Against Capital Punishment, the Quakers, and the Union of American Hebrew Congregations signed a letter stating the pain of McVeigh's victims, of their community, and of the nation "cannot be healed through the retribution of capital punishment or by vengeance." Last week, speaking for the U.S. Catholic Bishops, Cardinals Roger Mahony of Los Angeles and William Keeler of Baltimore reiterated the Catholic Church's longtime opposition to capital punishment, saying executing McVeigh will not bring healing or closure. Rather, the Cardinals said, "it will be just one more killing." At the same time, many religious leaders support McVeigh's execution. Today, we have a special report on the capital punishment debate among people of faith. Our correspondent Tim O'Brien talked with two ministers in the same denomination, the First Christian Church [Disciples of Christ].

32. Capital Punishment - The Death Penalty capital punishment lowers the value of human life as seen by the general populationand brutalizes society. It is based on a need for revenge. http://www.religioustolerance.org/executb.htm

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT THE DEATH PENALTY Basic reasons: pro and anti Click below to visit our sponsors. Common reasons in support of capital punishment The Bible The Bible requires the death penalty for a wide variety of crimes, including sex before marriage, adultery, homosexual behavior, doing work on Saturday and murder. It even calls for some criminals (e.g. prostitutes who are the daughters of priests) to be tortured to death by being burned alive. Most Christians, with the exception of those in the Reconstructionist movement , feel that many of these grounds for the death penalty no longer apply to Christian societies. U.S. However, Bible passages are still used to promote the retention of capital punishment for murderers; some advocate that homosexuals also be executed. Justice/Vengeance Many people feel that killing convicted murderers will satisfy their need for justice and/or vengeance. They feel that certain crimes are so heinous that executing the criminal is the only reasonable response. Deterrence Many people feel that the death penalty will deter criminals from killing. This does not seem to be confirmed by an analysis of the available data. However, it feels intuitively correct for many people.

" Yeshua of Nazareth (Jesus Christ) condemning a public execution of a woman for adultery." John 8:7, (NKJ) " Does it make sense for the state to hire murderers to kill defenseless victims on death row, in order to prove that hiring murderers to kill defenseless victims is morally wrong ?" Anon. " Barbarians. That's what we have become. We kill each other and instead of mourning the tragedy we want the state to satisfy our bloodlust by killing the offender...we must learn to deal with these people in our midst - punish them, but do not become them." Posting to a feedback forum, Detroit News, 1999-MAR-2 Overview: The word " capital " in " capital punishment " refers to a person's head. In the past, people were often executed by severing their head from their body. Surveys in the US and Canada regularly show that a sizable majority of adults are in favor of the death penalty for convicted murderers. Depending upon the exact question asked, 65 to 80% of adults support the death penalty. In 1984, individuals who give greatest support to capital punishment were found to be older, white, male, rich, urban dwellers, politically independent and religious believers.

Capital Punishment: The Case for Justice J. Budziszewski So weighty is the duty of justice that it raises the question whether mercy is permissible at all. By definition, mercy is punishing the criminal less than he deserves, and it does not seem clear at first why not going far enough is any better than going too far. We say that both cowardice and rashness miss the mark of courage, and that both stinginess and prodigality miss the mark of generosity; why do we not say that both mercy and harshness miss the mark of justice? Making matters yet more difficult, the argument to abolish capital punishment is an argument to categorically extend clemency to all those whose crimes are of the sort that would be requitable by death. The questions we must address are therefore three: Is it ever permissible for public authority to give the wrongdoer less than he deserves? If it is permissible, then when is it permissible? Is it permissible to grant such mercy categorically? Society is justly ordered when each person receives what is due to him. Crime disturbs this just order, for the criminal takes from people their lives, peace, liberties, and worldly goods in order to give himself undeserved benefits. Deserved punishment protects society morally by restoring this just order, making the wrongdoer pay a price equivalent to the harm he has done. This is retribution, not to be confused with revenge, which is guided by a different motive. In retribution the spur is the virtue of indignation, which answers injury with injury for public good. In revenge the spur is the passion of resentment, which answers malice with malice for private satisfaction. We are not concerned here with revenge.
