| 6. Wait. I HAVE to have read this wrong. |

The Catholic church has a problem with the death penalty being applied to, say, someone who killed, say, a carload of schoolchildren, but they have no problem with someone being executed because they're GAY?
Seriously? That has to be a typo. It just HAS to be. I'm begging here - please tell me that no one is that fucking stupid.
