(August 30, 2015 at 2:35 pm)Chad32 Wrote: What percentage of batshit crazy people in the world do you find acceptable? It's a loaded question. I'd rather not have anything less than perfection, but I don't want to throw out a system because occasionally something bad happens.

When a system results in such an unrepairable error, it should not be in place. Injustice is inevitably corrosive to our system of justice, and what is more unjust than killing an innocent man for a crime he didn't commit?

Shit, we're here on an atheist forum, and that is one of our arguments against a good God -- that he killed the innocent in order to deliver "justice" -- and you're here allowing that that isn't really that bad?

Perhaps were it you awaiting your own unjust execution, would that modify your views?
