Why do you think she is dignified?
View: https://x.com/LizaRosen0000/status/2107839991455900074/photo/1In his 2020 encyclical, Fratelli Tutti, Francis made the point again, quoting Pope John Paul II with the words "not even a murderer loses his personal dignity," then going on to affirm that the inalienable dignity of every human being extends even to "the worst of criminals."
The church's now categorical opposition to the death penalty represents a significant and quite recent development in Catholic teaching. For many centuries, the church accepted capital punishment, and ecclesiastical institutions participated in systems that condemned heretics and others to their deaths, most notoriously during the inquisitions.
In the Catholic tradition, Colleen Slemmer's dignity does not require Christa Pike to lose her own, just as the women and child murdered by Henri Pranzini were not further harmed because St. Thérèse prayed for their killer.
For Catholics, Christa Pike's guilt does not erase her dignity
Long before the Catholic Church officially rejected capital punishment, Catholic stories and saints imagined divine mercy accompanying the guilty all the way to the gallows.www.ncronline.org
Not the death sentence as such but maybe when someone survives what she survived, and you believe in the possibility of providence, you need to consider it about her.
Guano, why do you support democrat candidates who want to kill you?
It's STILL an open investigation.
Yet Trump released the files.
Because he didn't need to protect democrats.
Because Desh is DESPERATE to change the subject. She has been trained to chant a specific set of absurd lies. It's all she really knows.
Pike viciously tortured, murdered, and mutilated her roommate.
Lindsay Clancy murdered her 3 children. Both are MAJOR heroes for the democrat, but they are different cases.
She must be a day drinker.

My problem with capital punishment is the method which, as recent events illustrate, is barbaric.
It should be carried out as euthanasia the way sick pets are euthanized...which is totally different from what's being done now.
Further, euthanasia should be an option for all sentenced to prison as prison itself is completely barbaric.
I understand that some of the criminals have done truly horrific things, things which would not influence us to treat them humanly;
but consider this.
First, do we want to put the state on the level of the vicious criminals?
Second, do sane people actually commit heinous violent crimes? Aren't we punishing people for being truly sick?
I believe that even those non-criminals who have no further possibility of quality of life should have the option of euthanasia as well.
Ridiculous religious beliefs make us monsters. They're based on no physical evidence at all and yet they remain.

You contain a lot of stupid in your head
I know how grotesque her "execution" was.
I love my pets.
I don't love vicious murderers and rapists.
You democrats do, but I don't.
3.5 MILLION pages. That you are psychotic and a pathological liar doesn't alter reality - it just makes you a democrat.
What is not correct, junky?
Clancy especially is the hero of democrats across the nation. She aborted her 5 year old, democrats have long dreamed of abortion of children that age.
