Dear sinkspur,

"Catholics, therefore, can take either side, morally."

Not exactly. No Catholic may believe or teach that capital punishment is intrinsically evil. One may believe that at the present time, in some societies, it is no longer necessary to protect the innocent.

Catholics may differ on the prudential questions surrounding the death penalty.

But a Catholic may not believe the death penalty is, per se, wrong.

LOL! Thanks for that.

In your world, where the pope isn't even Catholic enough.
