Isn't life, life? If you claim it is wrong to have an abortion because it is murder is not capital punishment murder and since most people who are in this class are religious, does not the Bible say Jesus says "Vengeance is mine"?
But the case for the other side makes no sense either. Isn't death death? Aren't both in essence murder?
I don't know just an observation.
Me? I'm pro-choice, pro-capital punishment. I believe that if we allow one we must allow the other. Or if we ban one we must ban the other.

I don't know what book of the bible you're quoting but Jesus never said, "Vengence is Mine." Jesus preached in Matthew 5:39 "But I tell you not to resist an evil person. But whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also."
