This is interesting...Alan Dershowitz is calling out Anton Scalia on his recent ruling that even clear evidence of innocence isn't enough to halt an execution, and specifically how the Justice reconciles that with his Catholicism.
From my point of view,Strictly speaking, any Christian justification for state-sponsored execution is necessarily burdened with a pretty large dollop of irony. I mean, the Gospels aren't long on subtext when it comes to public policy, but the one government action that I'm pretty sure the Authors hoped the readers would frown upon is killing convicted criminals.
