And if someone commits premeditated murder and gets away with it, are you okay with them being brought back to life after death and face justice, would that suit your personal tastes?
I'm fine with my perspective being subjective. Everyone's perspective is subjective. When a group of people agrees on a course of action, it becomes intersubjective, and IMO a sensible intersubjective worldview makes for a stable and progressive society.
I would not want someone brought back from the dead even if they got away with murder. In such a case I would rather see justice not done. The idea of someone being brought back from the dead solely for punishment is an unspeakably horrible concept, and morally primitive as well - it's informed by a childish bloodlust rather than by jurisprudence. Let the dead stay dead, as they can no longer cause any harm.
