I'm still okay without the death penalty. I've just never been a fan of it. A big part of that comes from my upbringing in the Church of the Brethren, the denomination that this college is a part of. The COB has always been against capital punishment as it is but another form of violence and therefore violence against God. Now, my position is a bit more democratic than that, but I'd be lying if I said that being raised in this theological environment didn't have a large impact on my position.
