I'm interested in how Christians and Catholics answered this, For them Asking forgiveness or confessing of the sins is an easy 1 step process into their fake afterlife.
FSM forgives but he does not forget.
The Catholic teaching on the death penalty is that it would *only* permitted if that was the only way a society had of stopping the murderers and keeping society safe. Now a days, we have the means to keep murderers and rapists locked up where they cannot hurt anyone, so the death penalty should not be used.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
