    Since no one is innocent (according to Christianity) it seems odd to argue that the killing of one non-innocent person at the hands of humans is bad and the killing of another non-innocent person at the hands of humans is good.

    The tenerife woman was a sinner, and unless she repented and accepted Jesus she was bound for hell. She was not innocent and her sin is worthy of punishment for eternity in a lake of fire. Being killed with a knife seems trifle by comparison.

    The bulgarian man was a sinner, and unless he repented and accepted Jesus he was bound for hell. He was not innocent.

    Arguments for or against CP seem not really to have much to do with Christianity then. Since the resurrection of Jesus isn't justice for God alone?

    Expansion? You seem to throw that out there as if forgiveness precludes punishment. It doesn't.

    It does preclude punishment that excludes forgiveness, such as capital punishment.

    Are you asking us what we believe or are telling us what we should believe according to your understanding?

    Wicknight, if you're going to post crap then please have the goodness to point out that you are an atheist posting your own warped parody of what you think Christians believe.

    This thread has gone far enough down the toilet that I'm not prepared to moderate it any more.
