Atheist and the Death penalty

[Ravenshire]

First, this statistic is about the US. Do it in any other country and you get different results. Second, even in the US less people with "no religious preference" (mind that it doesn't say atheist), are in favor of capital punishment than religious people - protestants as well as catholics.

And a pew research poll from this year claims that the overall support dropped to an all time low in the US.

None of which changes anything that I said, a majority of people (more than 50%) support the death penalty.  Spin it however you want, the facts are still the facts.

So, the majority supports it. Doesn't make it right. The majority supports religion as well.
