What's the Greater Injustice ?

While I believe that an innocent person being punished is worse, it would make me angrier to have a guilty person go free.

Innocent punished.

A guilty person not being punished isn't an injustice, it's a lack of justice.

What happens if an imaginary innocent person is puinshed by an imaginary court to an imaginary death penalty?

Then an imaginary guilty person is not being punished.

Innocent being punished, most definitely.

Yes, yes, but no real guilty person is not being punished so it doesn't matter. Cause...well...real people matter.

Also, in Christianity can't the guilty person avoid being punished by repenting and turning to Christ?

if an innocent person is punished, the damage is done.

if a guilty person gets off on a technicality, they are freed to rape/pillage/kill again.

which of the two evils is lesser? i'd take the 2nd. there is always the chance the guilty person will slip up an dget caught.

innocent being punished?...mmm...interesting...i work on the theory that no-one over the age of 2 is innocent...because everyone is guilty of doing something wrong however small...thus people might be getting punishment for something they didn't do...but they did do something worthy of punishment at some point in their lives....so only the level of punishment is debatable

so a guilty person getting away with something is more annoying...especially if they did something to me

the first paragraph of your post is the biggest load of crap i have ever read.

seriously though, lets say a guy is a career criminal. one day, lets say in his 40's, he has a revelation about his life. he realizes what he has done, atones for it, and straightens out. he marries, has kids, becomes a productive member of society. one day, he is falsely accused of a crime and sentenced to a prison term. is this right? is this karma?

it sure is karma

my point is that punishment is really the only subjective thing in terms of severity...in the UK you get what seems like a couple of years in jail for murdering someone...in the US you may get 40+ years...life...even stuck on death row and then killed by lethal injection...in some countries you get bruatally tortured and strung up by the gonads for far lesser crimes than murder....

hence its the punishment that changes rather than the crime

i still stand by the comment that no-one is innocent throughout their lives...

good then, pick you up at 7. dress to kill!!!!

there are far too many if's and's but's and maybe's here for me. i am bowing out.

Neither "anger" me, but the second option is my choice.

Let's look at it realistically though. I wouldn't really mind if somebody was fined a low penalty for something they didn't do if they can afford it. At the same point I wouldn't really care if they got away with it either.

Now let's talk about murder, do you think somebody that has never killed anybody in his entire life, didn't even help or whatever should get the death penalty before you let a murderer loose in the streets again?

I just find it amazing that we ALL AGREE on something.....has this EVER happened on KMC before ?

Every Christian, Atheist, Buddhist, Straight, Gay, Bi, Conservative, Liberal, etc. person on this thread has given the same stance.....that's remarkable.
