Description

What is the Christian church's stance on capital punishment? What does sanctity of life really mean?
108 countries have abolished the death penalty for all crimes. 8 more countries have abolished the death penalty for ordinary crimes. 28 countries have, in practice, eliminated executions for at least the last 10 years. 55 other countries are considered Retentionist states in that their laws and practices continue to retain the right of capital punishment. What do China, Cuba, Afghanistan, North Korea, Iran, Iraq and the "Christian" nation of the United States have in common? You guessed it -- the death penalty. (Amnesty International)
