That's funny that you should say that hell doesn't make sense because I don't think that baptism or evolution make any sense but hell does make sense to me. Have you ever considered the wickedness; murder, molestation, crime? Do you not think that the eternal punishment of the wicked makes sense? How about the temporary punishment of the wicked: ie. prison, jail or death penalty?

Death penalty! why do something to a criminal that is only going to happen to them sooner or later anyway. We are all going to die sooner or later, but we are not all - in this lifetime - going to have our freedom taken away from us by getting shut up in a prison cell for the rest of our lives.

Maybe to protect the rest of society? Maybe to help save innocent lives?

Non-denominational Christian, even though I was raised free-methodist.

It would also put bad ideas into the Mafiosi's heads "the State kills, so therefore we can kill too"

We live in a stupid society where everyone wants to kill innocent, unborn babies but let murderers, rapists and child molesters live. Whatever.. :?

I think for most people like you describe living in a box size cell for life with little or no contact is worse than the death penalty and thats what they should get

That was interesting, PeterM.

Reproduction: I'm all for it.

Irresponsible sex: Well.......You know I'm the Church Lady on these matters! :shameonyou:

How would you define 'irresponsible sex'? Sex for pleasure without contraceptives? Sex for pleasure even with contraceptives, since they're not 100% effective?

I'm having a late night tonight, partly because of the argument with postperson over on intensity. I'll reply to your post on pearlsofwisdom once I've slept and am feeling fresher. I make stupid mistakes when I'm too tired.
