Yikes!  I wasn't referring to saints who are against the death penalty, but
rather wondering about the hearts of some of the unsaved out there who bray
against the death penalty.  I had in mind a couple of people I know 
personally, and so that really doesn't apply to all the unsaved either.
Sorry about the generality, when I really meant something more specific.

My apologies for the gruesome wording here.  (I really shouldn't type 
that late in the day :-(
