Hello everyone, this thread will be a bit controversial as will many of my threads. I am sorry if it offends anyone.
What are your guys feelings on the death penalty and prisons in general?
I feel that the death penalty should be abolished since it isn't up to us to decide who lives and who dies.
Also, I am against the structure of prisons. I feel that rehabilitation centers should be the permanent alternative. Prisons contain their criminals in concrete cells with steel bars like those people are animals at the zoo; I fail to see anything good about this. Being very compassionate, I always see the human in even the worst of humans and believe, as Luke and many other books say, we should love our enemies. My feeling is that throwing people in cages leaving them to rot is not showing much love. In addition, Prisons are proven to worsen the mental conditions of their inhabitants. It, in turn, makes things worse for the prisoners. Rehabilitation centers, even if prisoners need to stay in for the rest of their lives, do a much better job at providing the attention that many criminals need to bring their eyes to Jesus.
