Death penalty is considered to be a very complicated issue since there seem to be a variety of opinions that concern it. This institution has caused a rather big gap as many people believe that the best thing would be to do away with it whereas others support that its existence is very important for a number of different reasons. However, people who are of the opinion that capital punishment should be abolished in the countries that still exists, claim that there are other solutions, which can "answer" to serious crimes, that could be used instead of death penalty. Both sides, those who stand for capital punishment and those who stand against it, have pretty serious arguments to support their views. Although Church is a very determinative factor, as far as the matter of death penalty is concerned, it does not seemed to have resolved its opinion.

First of all, people who stand against death penalty, support that because it is thought to be a form of punishment, the examination of motives, which made the convict commit a crime, is a quite essential element as it may give a good explanation for his m

alefaction and let's not ignore the possibility that the accused person proves to be innocent. For example, the "Governor Clinton refused to stay the[...] May 7 execution of a 25-year-old white man who was involved when he was 18 in the shooting of a police officer" but whose guiltiness could not be proved as it is uncertain that "he himself pulled the trigger." Moreover, they are of the opinion that capital punishment is an inhuman and pointless action as, despite the fact that a person is sentenced to death, there aren't any studies to prove that it prevents criminals from continuing committing crimes as they usually make plans of their actions and as a result, they think that they will get away with it. According to their beliefs, deciding on a person's death is not a sign of good will or forgiveness as it doesn't give the convict a chance of remorse for what he/she has done. People who stand against death penalty believe in the phrase: "Two wrongs don't make a right." And they seem to have a point as another cruel "murder", like this that occurs when someone is condemned to die, is not going to bring the victim's life back. Furthermore, the ways in which convicts die are believed to be extremely cruel, like the electric chair or the poison that trindles in them until they are dead. Capital punishment is totally against the beliefs of the most accepted religion, which is Christianism. People's demand to abolish death penalty is thought to be based on some pretty "strong" outlooks and beliefs.

"Is the death penalty a necessary and just punishment? Or should society find another way to deal with its most violent criminals?" is a rather popular question that comes from people's need to understand whether death penalty is a necessary kind of punishment or not. There are some other forms of penalty that can be bent and that they can please both views, that of supporting capital punishment and that of standing against it. For example, community service is a type of punishment that helps the convict understand the meaning of offering to fellowmen and that gives him/her the opportunity to communicate with people "out" of prison. This punishment also makes the criminal get the feeling of being useful as he/she has to offer his/her services wherever they are needed, like in hospitals or even in prison. Psychiatric clinics is , for many people, a very efficient way for the convicts, who are characterized as "psychopaths" by the court of law, to have the appropriate regard and as a result of that, to realize their psychologic problems and to be led, eventually, in mental health. For those who stand strongly for capital punishment, life imprisonment without parole would be a satisfactory substitute of death penalty as the criminal, who spend a whole lifetime in prison will be given the chance to regret his/her crime and will continuing hoping to get out of prison even the last moments before his/her physical death. This punishment lacks cruelty and it remains an exem
