Re: Should christians believe in the death penalty

I have heard that removal of death penalty was due to the philosophy that hit the government thinking that crime is a sickness, which some Christians claimed was a cop-out. Crime is a blatant sin that people are indeed responsible for. And since the copout was used to abandon death penalty, these Christians felt it was all the more reason for death penalty. Anyone hear that angle?
