Today, the National Catholic Reporter published an important story on Catholics and the death penalty – “Dead Wrong: Catholics Must No Longer Support Capital Punishment.” The story details the evolution of the Church’s position on capital punishment. “It is not a message that is immediately understood – that there is no room for supporting the death penalty in today’s world,” noted a Vatican expert on the subject. CMN encourages you to read and share this excellent piece.
