portereight: I am against the death penalty, however, the english translation of the commandment you refer to is quite poor. A better translation is "thou shalt not take innocent life" i.e. "thou shalt not murder" as opposed to "thou shalt not kill."
I'm against the death penalty, and Christian, but that commandment is a weak argument against it.
