Death state update


The sentencing of a convicted murder, Khristian Oliver, should be an embarrassment to the state of Texas; the jurors consulted the Old Testament to see what should be done with him, found a bible verse they liked — “And if he smite him with an instrument of iron, so that he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death” — and sentenced him to be executed.

Well, that was just fine with Governor Rick Perry. Oliver has been killed. Isn’t it nice to have the importance of biblical morality affirmed for us once again?
