Every people have different opinion, sorry if my post was confused.

You don't want the Gitmo prisoners to be killed because they are Muslim and it's against your religion and yet you are pro-choice as you outed yourself as pro-choice on the abortion thread......

Sounds like a contradiction to me......

Want to clarify?

I'm glad I'm not alone in this.

how about putting them to the american prison? jk.. well, i'm not gonna go for death penalty or to have life in prison.. as long as they know what they're doing to the prisoners. the prisoners deffy doesn't belong anywhere on this earth except a cell. if its death penalty.. well, then be it. its an easy way out. but goes both ways.

Woah, woah. I don't believe in killing people because -they are human beings, just like me-. That said, if my objection was only to killing Muslims (It is not!) those people would NOT be in that category. Those men awaiting execution at Gitmo are NOT Muslim. They took my religon and perverted it into something hardly recognisable as an EXCUSE for their disgusting actions. Don't get that one wrong.

And... this has nothing to do with my views on abortion. I support a woman's right to abortion well pre-viability, which is a far cry from supporting execution of breathing human beings.

Silentwolfdog · 02-21-2008, 11:17 PM

I agree with Aleser.

I am just following one what I think is God's (and many different beliefs) most sacred law, "Thou shall not murder (kill)."

To me, take a life of human being, regardless of their background is one of worst crimes a human can ever commit.

Only time I believe it's okay is in self-defense.

Those killers were already caught, so I don't feel comfortable have my hands turned red just because they are killers. It just feels too much like I am god myself deciding who shall live and who shall die.
As Aleser have said, if I killed those bad guy in name of justice, then I am no worse than those guys.

I agree with Aleser´s post #37.

Silentwolfdog-- God believes in Justice and Righteous, after all that's His law.

We have laws here too, Our law permits death penalty, and Gitmo prisoners deserved the death penalty of murdering so many people.

And Byrdie714, Those Gitmo prisoners are not only Muslims but Christians too, but majority are Muslims.

Somewhere in the bible that says, we can kill the human who killed the human because that murderer "violated" God's image? Not sure....

In old test, it is known as "eye for eye" but in new test, Jesus changed and revolutionized the love for others - "turn the other cheek" and "let he who without sin cast the first stone"

Silentwolfdog · 02-25-2008, 12:14 AM

I don't believe in "an eye for an eye" philosophy. I am not going down to their level. I can't live forever knowing I have killed a human being through a death penalty just because s/he did something bad.
Forgiveness is something all of us have to learn and live with. I do believe that's what God also want from us. Or otherwise hate and bitterness will just live on.

"An eye for an eye, and soon the whole world is blind" Gandhi

Byrdie714 · 02-25-2008, 07:45 AM

I must be in the minority then.

I believe in the death penalty. As I asked in my previous post and no one is willing to answer is what if it was one of your relatives were killed by these mad men?

Then you would advocate the government seeking the death penalty.

We are not stooping down to their level, we are seeking justice for the victims of the tragedy-- all 3000 of them. All innocent.

I hope these guys fry.....

As an answer for your question. I will be biting my hand, but no I do not wish death penalty on those guys if that happened to my family as well. That's too much like a revenge rather than justice. As I have said before, I can't live forever knowing I have killed those guys as well. I am not going to corrupt my own soul just for the sake of revenge. And I will only leave their fate to God.

I disagree that the system is using violence to eradicate/punish, etc it; there are behaviors exhibited that are so egregious, and heinous that those who exhibit same are not fit to live amongst us. I, personally, have no problem casting the first stone, as it were, in this specific arena. Mail me that remote switch and at midnight, there will be one less sub-human on earth! Lol....

Tousi · 05-16-2008, 01:39 PM

Hmmmm, what's this about, "reviving"?

jiro123 · 05-17-2008, 12:51 AM

Most of you know that I am a staunch believer in death penalty. However.... due to government's improper and secretive proceeding, I cannot support death penalty for Gitmo prisoners.
