There is no such thing as a Christian nation. When Jesus comes to rule on this earth it will be on the "Throne of David".. that would be Israel. If anything USA is a part of the Roman Empire which fell apart.
"Christian" always apply to an individual and never to a nation.
********************
For the death penalty to be effective we don't need women and weak men on the jury of a murder trial. Anyone who afraid of an innocent person may accidentally be put death shouldn't be making the tough decisions like the death penalty. (the same with war) Innocent people are killed every day by automobiles (killed by someone else misjudgement) but no one is crying automobiles should be made illegal.
The objective of the death penalty is not to kill innocent people no more than automobiles are designed to kill people.
Wrong. Jesus rules through Christian nations (anywhere Christians are in the majority). Washington DC is a throne of Jesus.There is no such thing as a Christian nation.

Comparing car accidents to a deliberate process were someone is killed is disingenuous. It is not like there are no alternatives that we could come up with.
Seems strange that God couldn't come up with a viable alternative, but you can.

Who decides whether a nation is Christian or not? Is it the Pew or Gallup polls people engage in when they self identify as following a certain religion?
Matthew 25: The Sheep and the Goats
Ironically, that parable would, arguably, make the least religious nations on the earth (Scandinavia) the most christian ones.
Scandinavia is heavily culturally Christian, and Christians still come out as the majority in censuses. Just very few Scandinavians take religion that serious any more is all.
Who am I to judge? If a person says they are a Christian, that's good enough for me. But ultimately it's up to God. Since 312 AD, God only lets Christian nations have dominion over the earth, and if the US were not a Christian nation, we would not be ruling the earth.Who decides whether a nation is Christian or not?

The dominant male class's intolerant and repressive attitudes toward the Other, particularly: women, minorities (ethnic, language, religious, sexual), foreigners, immigrants, diversity, multiculturalism.

You are still referring to the innocent right? Are you saying the death penalty is deliberately design to kill innocent people? Justice and freedom has a heavy price tag.Comparing car accidents to a deliberate process were someone is killed is disingenuous. It is not like there are no alternatives that we could come up with.
As the earth's only superpower, we police the earth. Our weapons bring hell and death to the enemies of Jesus.We rule the earth? Really? WOW.
What's your problem? We are clearly commanded to kill the enemies of Jesus, and that's what the US does. The point is, Jesus is OK with the death penalty.Who are you to judge? I don't know, for someone who claims the enemies of Jesus should be killed, I got the feeling judging others, sort of came natural to you.
