Many American Catholics support the death penalty.

I did for many years, but now witnessing the corruption of our justice system tells me that it cannot be trusted with such a decision.

Therefore, I oppose abortion, capital punishment and euthanasia.

I guess I am part of the 1%

If you maintain that the death penalty is inherently immoral, you’re contradicting the Bible, and the Catholic Church’s perennial teaching based on the Bible.

If you maintain that in these United States today, due to government corruption, the several States cannot be trusted to impose the death penalty justly ... that’s your prudential judgment and not in conflict with Scripture and Doctrine.
