[QUOTE="Coralie, post: 54405914, member: 250448"] I do think it's a "render unto Caesar" issue. Although I must say, I'm pro-life, so I personally oppose the death penalty and would vote against it in, for example, a referendum. Possibly not in a normal election, since there are typically so many other issues involved--for example, when a politican pushes uber-liberal abortion laws, but wants to rescind the death penalty, how would I choose?, etc. I wince as I say this, but fetuses and criminals are equally precious in the sight of God. I find it as difficult to love murderers/rapists/etc. as the next person, but I do feel I'm called to as a Christian. [/QUOTE]
