Good for President Bush. Justice will now be served. I hope someone has witnessed to this man and he has made things right with God before he meets his maker which he will do as just punishment for the murders he committed.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

I have reservations about the death penalty. I'm not calling for an all out ban, but whenever I read about one, it makes me uneasy.

In all sincerity, I believe that it should only be served in cases where there is undeniable proof of guilt, but I do firmly believe it is right and it is just.

Let me get this straight. You think the guy deserves the punishment of death, but after death, you hope he goes to Heaven? Do I understand you correctly?

You understood correctly! There are consequences to our actions in this world. I felt like Saddam Hussein received exactly what he deserved from the world's justice system, however I would have rejoiced if he would have received the gift of salvation prior to his death.

Now, start ripping me apart!
Ripping you apart? Wouldn't dream of it!
OK, maybe some gentle prodding. Do you think eternal torment is too severe of a punishment for his crimes?
