The genuine, original, orthodox Catholic Church, not the Frankish innovation you call Catholic Church, forbade capital punishment. Really? Justinian I, Saint of the Orthodox Church, thought capital punishment was just dandy for the Manichaeans. So much for your historical revisionism of the Orthodox Church.
