Stephen Colbert Tennessee death penalty surge

It is not a matter of how we execute our citizens, but that we execute our citizens

Stephen Colbert Tennessee death penaltyThis issue is most about keeping the logistics of state executions secret in Tennessee as they now do in Oklahoma and Georgia. The who and how of it kept secret from the killing in your name.

I suppose we cannot blame America’s enjoyment of executions in 32 states upon Christianity, after all, the Pope and the Catholic Church are against the process and they claim to be Christians.

No, it must be narrowed down to American EVANGELICAL Christianity that is so bent upon dragging people away, attaching them to a padded cross and killing them. Like they did their Lord and Savior.

Hey I have an idea to make it even more enjoyable for Evangelicals. Bore a hole in the floor of the execution chambers and slide the bottom of the padded cross into it so it stands upright so the Christian witnesses who want to watch this so bad have a better view of the killing.

Some find it hard to get one’s head around an entire religion that is based upon the horror of an execution, arguing for more of it. But that’s just one small small part of the rational disconnect of religion in general.

Why is it that the more Christian one is the more they want to execute people? Ah, family values!

Ever come across all those people who loudly volunteer online to pull the switch or push the button on some miserable soul? Good ole boy Christians all, who also love the guns, the wars and slapping little kids around at home and in school. All at the beset of the Prince of Violence, Jesus Christ.
