The death penalty is an issue that has been debated in the United States for a long time, with many arguments on each side. I think this is a major moral issue because the Bible gives conflicting information concerning the matter. One of the ten commandment says “Thou shalt not kill,” while the same book says that the punishment for killing should be death. The lives of convicted murders are at stake, so the argument is not to be taken lightly. I think that each side needs to have respect for each other and understand that each side has some stake in it, like victims’ families such as the Harvey’s and religious figures such as Sister Helen. Each have validity in their point of view to due circumstances, and I think each side needs to respect
