Aliyah Frumin from MSNBC made some criticism on the Pope for saying they to abolish the death penalty.Aliyah implied that she was vehemitly opposed to abolish the death penalty. The Pope said in his speech " Our world increasingly a place of violent conflicted, hatred and brutal atrocities, committed even in the name of God and religion." The issue is violence in todays society, when someone commits murder they might get sentenced the death penalty. I agree and disagree because I don't understand how someone can be so cruel and be okay with it and hiding what they did and also being okay with themselves. I believe justice needs to be served with death penalty but it depends on what happened in the situation. but then again getting sentenced to over twenty five years in a cell where all you can do and think about what you did is bad enough but also it depends on who the person is. The reason I disagree is because in the bible God says in the ten commandments it says thow shall not kill its going against Gods word and we should follow Gods will or else. I was raised very religous but then I also understand why we have the death penalty. I agree with the Pope and also with Aliyah.
"Being at the service of dialogue and peace also means being truly determined to minimize and, in the long term, to end the many armed conflicts:throughout our world. Here we have to ask ourselves: Why are deadly weapons being sold to those who plan to inflict untold suffering on indviduals and society? Sadly, the answer is, as we all know, is simply for money: money that is drenched in blood, often innocent blood. In the face of this shameful and culpable silence, it is our duty to confront the problem and stop the arms trade." The issue is money, everything is controlled by money and well power. Money has gone to everyones head that it makes everyone cloudy in the head you could say. I agree and disagree. I agree because we are shedding innocent blood and I disagree because its all we known to do to fix things in this world is fighting and using money, and we don't know any different because thats what was taught.
What really stood out to me was when Pope Francis said "all of us are quite aware of and political situation of the world today." That the government is making poor choices and is influenced by the wrong thing which is a money and not influenced by the wrong thing which making are government to fumble and also are world is increasingly a place of violent conflict, hatred sand brutal atrocities,committed even in the name of God and of or ideological extremism. Him that to me is our society is focusing on the wrong things such as hatred on people, when we really should be more welcoming to others.
