I would ask that all of us remember in our prayers John Allen Muhammed, who was executed last night in Virginia.
I do not support the death penalty nor do I support abortion or euthanasia. God alone is the author of life and permits in his own time the death of any of us.
Violence doesn’t solve much, if anything. Taking the life of a convicted killer is unneeded when other effective means of rendering punishment and justice exist.
Let us pray also for the victims of violent crime in our society, especially for the victims of Mr. Muhammed.
