Nap, may I compliment you on your rethinking of the issue! You clearly are open-minded.
As regards concensus, as you know in the UK , a free vote on the issue among the members of parliament has consistently been in favour of no return to hanging.
I very rarely heap praise on the honourable members, but do so on this issue.
A man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?
