    Experts say Pope Francis’ decree about the death penalty could shift political debates, make it difficult for devout Catholic judges to uphold the law and loom over Supreme Court confirmation hearingshttp://apne.ws/p5SxLxp

        So....anti death penalty is a bad thing for conservatives but anti women's rights is a good thing?

        The same way devout Catholic liberals now are in a quandary about abortion?

        Why? They should be ruling based on the law, not religious decree. It's not like we're Iran or something.

        I agreed with your statement. But this isn't religion in politics. This is the Vatican stating it's position on the death penalty. It was forced to do this as there are far to many politicians claiming God in their justifications.

        Weird. Q is a LARP? All for a LARP who's outing Big Names in High Places of crimes of corruption, sedition and pedophilia. Crimes that can be punishable by death. Then, @NYGovCuomo came out this week in an effort to abolish NY's DP. Followed, the next day by the #Pope #WWG1WGA

        I thought those types of decisions were made by councils, that is, convocations of high church officials. Since when can Popes issue these pronouncements that would be binding on church doctrine?

        So sorry, DNC mouthpiece #AP, but all judge's must apply the LAW to death penalty cases. If a jury hands up a death sentence, the judge needs to follow through with it! Personal beliefs have NO PLACE on the bench
