Essays / "DEATH PENALTY" ; Essay on a controversial issue. [4]
Hello Gloria,
Thank you for your quick response. I just got home from work, that's the reason why I was late to reply for your questions. Let me start from your first question:
"What supporting facts/details/examples do you plan on using for your first topic, section C?"
How knowledgeable person you are Gloria?
Do you know how this question saved me from a big mistake?
When I was read some researches about 'death penalty' many people wrote, some religions protest killing of human beings because it is written in their holly books. So, when I make the first section in my outline I thought I can get enough supporting facts/details/ examples from those books, but when I checked some of them after I read your questions, I found 100% opposite information. This is what I got in Bible, "Anyone who takes another person's life must be put to death." Leviticus 24:17. Further more, Muslims believe all human beings right to live with exception "...it is prohibited to take away life except for a shari'ah prescribed reason..." So, I think I am screwed up. So, I have to replace everything in the first section by other idea. I hope you can help me with that.
Your second question was "What do you mean by less suffering? For the condemned individual?" No, it wasn't. It was for criminals who sentenced to death. I was trying to compare the suffering between the people executed and the people who staying their life time in prison until death. Both will die but the people executed die with out suffering. So, which one of them are beneficiary from this? This is what I was trying to say.
This is how I corrected my outline regarding your comments, but I left blank the first section. I will try to find something and I will post it as soon as I find one, but in the mean time, if you have some idea please let me know. Thank you.
Solomon
