Debating religion and the death penalty
The Baltimore Sun this morning has this interesting article, entitled "Faithful split on death penalty," which details that, as a scheduled execution approaches in Maryland, "the religious are lining up on both sides of the capital punishment debate." As detailed in the posts linked below, I always find the intersection of religion and criminal justice issues very interesting:
- Sentencing and religion
- Religion, sentencing and corrections
- Sister Prejean powerful perspective
- New resource examining religion and the death penalty
- Meth, mandatories and moral values
- Is there a "new right" on criminal sentencing issues?
- Miers, religion, and criminal justice issues
