Dear Nathan,
You ask - "Would you defend someone being put to the crucifix in 2019?" You give us a link and let us know this is happening in Saudi Arabia. In that case - my answer would - No. I have no plans of travelling to that part of the world. Posted by Foxy, Thursday, 25 April 2019 6:58:11 PM

It's funny how the news I watch keeps me informed of all these global issues;
And where all you guys get is narrative I get the inside info. - Which really should be normal news reporting but todays media just treats you all like mushrooms - Well from what I heard Belly and Aiden are right to be skeptical whether these people were actually terrorists. From what I heard a couple may have been actual terrorists (I say 'may' because I'm not completely sure they actually were) But the rest, well they were just people who 'attended protests' etc. This was a the government getting rid of activists and dissidents; - For example (I don't know if this is fact either) perhaps some were the women who stood up for the right to drive. There's more details of the victims in the video I watched here: http://youtu.be/_L1B1L6E-qk Posted by Armchair Critic, Thursday, 25 April 2019 10:15:33 PM

Depends. A lot of things depend on the context; Pro's and cons; The bigger picture; Scenario's that would create a need for an exception to the rule. Would I support someone being nailed to a cross for a crime? Well generally no, it seems a little barbaric and unnecessary. But ask me if a priest who rapes kids or covers up pedophilia doesn't deserve it? Maybe they do. And if they were my kids that this somehow happened to; Well I'd probably volunteer to hammer the nails in myself. And so, it all depends on the context.

Armchair Critic The most important thing we must consider is are our opinions right
And are we any better than others to judge them It remains my view,while the death penalty is sometimes called for We should use a cleaner more humane method Putting the deaths, then the body on display is primitive and so is the mentioned country Posted by Belly, Friday, 26 April 2019 5:50:50 AM

Crucifixion is carried out by Muslims on devout Christians even today. Christian women who refused to submit to sex slavery in the Ottoman Empire in 1015 were crucified.
