I'm talking about the early Church in the first couple of centuries AD, at the time before the Church got involved with the Roman empire. At the time when followers of Jesus were persecuted. That's a time when Christians made it absolutely clear that they wanted to have nothing to do with the death penalty. That's also the time whe the Gospel spread most rapidly.fine with me. the organized church is generally corrupt and ignorant anyway.
i'm a christian... not religious.
And why do you suppose that when I say "Church" I must mean something "strictly organized and corrupt"? The Church is the "body of Christ". Btw, after getting a bit "organized" with the Roman empire in the 4th century, that's when the Church really started to support the death penalty.
