@mion39939826@aquinasbear A crime for which God commanded the punishment of death, which Christ said only those without sin can carry out. Thats my reading.
@ResidentRieper@MrCasey62 Yes, I'm focusing on how conversations work and ignoring your point because IT IS NOT THE TOPIC OF THIS THREAD?????
It is irrelevant.
@WeaDaFugawi@sola_chad Was Jesus a different God from the one who ordered David/Solomon to overlay ALL the walls of his temple with GOLD? Who ordered Moses to overlay ALL the vessels of his temple with gold?
@AndreaStef8034@mattvanswol When its a good thing, suddenly their colour is bothersome. When it's a bad thing, its just "realism."
They are men and they are black. Both are true.
@aquinasbear c) The abolitionist stances of recent popes are prudential matters.
d) Francis/Leo are best interpreted as using careless concepts to express the above.
e) Also, their "human dignity" utterances are not protected by the charism of infallibility.
That's my best attempt. 🤷🏾♀️
@aquinasbear b) We need the additional ground of necessity of the common good over which governments have authority, to overcome the obstacle.
So both justice and necessity are true and non contradicting requirements for governments to carry out the DP.

@MrHwiteBTC@BUnderwood94372@poperespecter1 You are part of a lynch mob, he's talking to you to and yiur inane bloodlust. You're also a child who resorts to juvenile insults. Shame on you. Muted.
@ResidentRieper@MrCasey62 The issue of this thread is in the OP, which you ignored to start your own topic inside another's thread.
You're the one missing the entire point of how threads & conversations work.
Hint: You can start another thread to discuss the topic you're trying to impose on this one.
@pluant Indeed. Directly contradicting God is not something the Church should ever do.
God Almighty: "It is BECAUSE of human dignity, that the death penalty exists."
Francis/Tucho, and unfortunately now, Leo too: "It is BECAUSE of human dignity that the death penalty is wrong."
@MrHwiteBTC@BUnderwood94372@poperespecter1 Jesus said let him who is without sin cast the first stone. That should make you fear puting yourself on the judgment seat, "dealing out death in judgment" (to quote Gandalf) like you're so eager to do with those you deem worse than yourself.
@pzj1801@MrCasey62 So what? Which Catholic dogma makes this unnacceptable? Irenaeus is our go-to any day of the week. It won't work to project your protestant historical desert on us.
@CatholicArena I don't even understand what that whole beef was about. Why are Bree and a ton of Protestants freaking out about that innocuous tweet?????
