Featured The Hypocrisy Behind Using Semantics with the Term “Pro-Life”.

How does Abortion even really compare to capital punishment? 100 percent of babies aborted are innocent...can we safely estimate a majority of those who receive capital punishment get it for crimes they committed?

Also how many are killed in abortions vs executed?

CTB why don't you ever attack abortion when it's clearly a much bigger problem.

 

Anyone know what Trumps
Position on abortion is?

 

100% correct. It is indeed hypocritical. And they can deny it and make excuses for it till Jesus returns and it'll still be hypocritical.

 

100% of all babies murdered in the womb are innocent.

Like just about every other issue you can mention. It depends. He has statements on both sides of the issue. It depends now which side he believes will benefit him most. Lately he has claimed to be anti-abortion. Previously, when he believed it was to his benefit, he was pro-choice.

Trump will flip-flop whenever he believes it is to his benefit. Trump is pro-Trump and nothing else.

 

Scripture please.

There is nothing in scripture saying that it is not the job of government to help those in need. Our government if of the people, by the people and for the people and that means both the church and the government has a responsibility of helping "the people".

Sadly, neither the church nor the government is living up to its responsibility of taking care of "the people", especially those in need.

It was in a major article I read years ago. After checking online the most common percentage cited now is 4%. Isn't that justification enough to abandon capital punishment? The 4% is admitted to be a conservative figure.

The study cited below was widely reported.

From: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/apr/28/death-penalty-study-4-percent-defendants-innocent

At least 4.1% of all defendants sentenced to death in the US in the modern era are innocent, according to the first major study to attempt to calculate how often states get it wrong in their wielding of the ultimate punishment.

A team of legal experts and statisticians from Michigan and Pennsylvania used the latest statistical techniques to produce a peer-reviewed estimate of the “dark figure” that lies behind the death penalty – how many of the more than 8,000 men and women who have been put on death row since the 1970s were falsely convicted.

The team arrived at a deliberately conservative figure that lays bare the extent of possible miscarriages of justice, suggesting that the innocence of more than 200 prisoners still in the system may never be recognised.

The study concludes that were all innocent people who were given death sentences to be cleared of their offences, the exoneration rate would rise from the actual rate of those released – 1.6% – to at least 4.1%. That is equivalent in the time frame of the study, 1973 to 2004, of about 340 prisoners – a much larger group than the 138 who were exonerated in the same period.

“This is a disturbing finding,” said Samuel Gross, a law professor at the University of Michigan law school who is the lead author of the research. “There are a large number of people who are sentenced to death, and despite our best efforts some of them have undoubtedly been executed.

And yet you focus on this over the 100 percent of innocent babies that are killed...
