Thanks for your input, guys. You made some good points, and I'm taking it all into consideration.
Here's another angle I'm struggling with: I am pro-life and morally opposed to abortion because I believe that life is sacred. Therefore, is it hypocritical of me if I support the death penalty? Is it morally justifiable to say that the innocent unborn deserve to live, but those who have committed murder should die?
My brain hurts :-)
