ASC RESOLUTION ON THE DEATH PENALTY:
Be it resolved that because social science research has demonstrated the death penalty to be racist in application and social science research has found no consistent evidence of crime deterrence through execution, the ASC publicly condemns this form of punishment and urges its members to use their professional skills in legislatures and the courts to seek a speedy abolition of this form of punishment (ASC Annual Meeting, Montreal, 1987).

    AUSTRALIA Proud to be Australian Death Penalty Free Country THE PREMIER AUSTRALIAN INTERNET RESOURCE ON CAPITAL PUNISHMENT Australian Coalition Against Death Penalty (ACADP) is an Australian independent non-profit human rights organisation with no political or religious affiliation. ACADP is a united team of dedicated volunteers - a group of university-educated human rights activists from different backgrounds, political and religious beliefs - specialising on the subject of capital punishment - with a determination to work for a death penalty free world. ACADP is the primary source of factual information on every issue surrounding the use of the death penalty around the world. We monitor, research, take action and report the latest death penalty developments globally. ACADP is the Australian voice calling on retentionist nations to establish a moratorium on executions - with a view to completely abolishing capital punishment worldwide. In addition, ACADP is the 'watchtower' organisation that maintains vigilance and takes action against calls for the re-introduction of capital punishment in Australia. ACADP recognises the right of sovereign states to implement their own laws, but at the same time we have genuine concern for precedence of the most fundamental universal human right - the right to life. ACADP opposes the power assumed by governments at any level, to legally kill their criminals. We do not condone the crimes for which individuals are convicted but we insist that no state is ever justified in killing its own citizens.

    A federal judge in Boston presiding over the death penalty case of two black defendants has ordered a change in the process of summoning jurors in order to ensure a more diverse jury. U.S. District Judge Nancy Gertner wrote a 95-page opinion and noted that it would be "profoundly troubling" if the defendants, Darryl Green and Branden Morris, were to face an all-white jury in a trial for their lives.

    Should Christians support the death penalty? The answer to that question is the death penalty; it reinforced the principle of capital punishment.

Rusty Wright Articles Probe Navigation Home History Current Issues Capital Punishment Capital Punishment PDF E-mail Written by Kerby Anderson Should Christians support the death penalty? The answer to that question is controversial. Many Christians feel that the Bible has spoken to the issue, but others believe that the New Testament ethic of love replaces the Old Testament law.
    Old Testament Examples
    Throughout the Old Testament we find many cases in which God commands the use of capital punishment. We see this first with the acts of God Himself. God was involved, either directly or indirectly, in the taking of life as a punishment for the nation of Israel or for those who threatened or harmed Israel. One example is the flood of Noah in Genesis 6-8. God destroyed all human and animal life except that which was on the ark. Another example is Sodom and Gomorrah (Gen. 18-19), where God destroyed the two cities because of the heinous sin of the inhabitants. In the time of Moses, God took the lives of the Egyptians' first-born sons (Exod. 11) and destroyed the Egyptian army in the Red Sea (Exod. 14). There were also punishments such as the punishment at Kadesh-Barnea (Num. 13-14) or the rebellion of Korah (Num. 16) against the Jews wandering in the wilderness. The Old Testament is replete with references and examples of God taking life. In a sense, God used capital punishment to deal with Israel's sins and the sins of the nations surrounding Israel.

    The Death Penalty
    Introduction
    When and whether it is ever appropriate to execute a human being has long been one of society's thorniest problems. Capital punishment is practiced in many countries around the world, and banned in many others. In the United States, some states almost routinely execute criminals, while other states have no death penalty laws at all. This guide is intended to assist students researching historical, ethical, and sociological aspects of the death penalty. This Web page is intended as a guide to:
    The Library's online catalog lists books, videos, magazines, journals, and other items available at the SFCC or SCC. You can search by author, title, or subject.

    U.S. Supreme Court Ends Death Penalty for Juveniles
    Divided court overturns sentences in 19 states
    March 1, 2005

    By Susan Ellis, Washington File Staff Writer
    Washington A closely divided Supreme Court ruled March 1 that the death penalty cannot be imposed on youthful murderers who were not yet 18 years of age at the time they committed the crimes, ending a practice used in 19 of the U.S. states. Such executions are a disproportionate punishment for juveniles, whom society views as categorically less culpable than adult criminals, the court said, and violate the ban on cruel and unusual punishment contained in the Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

    Pro Bono Opportunities for Lawyers
    The need for pro bono firms continues to grow. Dozens of persons on death rows throughout the country are without counsel. Many more have been appointed attorneys who lack the training, experience or resources to provide effective representation. While each individual has the right to seek post-conviction relief of his conviction and sentence, there is no federal constitutional guarantee that a lawyer be appointed in state proceedings. State post-conviction proceedings are often the first real opportunity for prisoners to establish their innocence or demonstrate constitutional errors that infected the capital trial.
