Death Penalty: Appeal to the Highest Court

About this sermon

Ambassador Alan Keyes expressed some very important points about the death penalty some years ago in an interview, stating, “In modern society, we go about business as if death is the ultimate harm that can befall you, which it is not. The ultimate penalty is life without God. We say that punishment should fit the crime, but we have forgotten that there’s a higher tribunal than ours and sometimes we are punishing acts that are so evil that we should appeal to God’s tribunal. The Pope hasn’t said that capital punishment is a moral evil; he said that it isn’t needed anymore. That’s not a moral judgment by the Pope, but a prudential judgment, and on prudential judgments, we’re free as Catholics to disagree. We must be careful to take seriously the argument the Pope has made, but we are free to have another opinion.” The article used in this sermon to support the ancient teaching on the use of Capital Punishment comes from First Things... found here... https://www.firstthings.com/article/2001/04/catholicism-capital-punishment For more please visit http://reginaprophetarum.org/#/ & remember to say 3 Hail Marys for the priest 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Support Catholic Businesses here - https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ Sensus Fidelium Press - https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ Sensus Fidelium Apps - https://sensusfidelium.tv/ Support Sensus Fidelium - https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴
