I asked the question because there has been some pressure to take it down. I think most if not all would like to have their last words accessible by people, especially those who proclaimed their innocence.
Not all of these quotes are morbid. Some are filled with not only remorse at their crime(s) but with more than a touch of love for not only their families but for those of their victims. If there is a God then He knows the hearts of all. Which is more sacred, more holy if you will, the chest beating of a pseudo believer or the genuine heartfelt supplication of one guilty of taking innocent life and paying the just price for said crime with their own life? If we who are merely human can differentiate between the two how much more the One who created all?
If they are truly repentant, then God knows. If it is all for show, again God knows. If as some here assert there is no God, then why do you even care if they call out to the Christ whom you believe to be a farce? I will not deny the gift of Hope to one condemned to die. And they should die for their crime. If they truly believe in Christ then they will die but once.
God knows the heart but when one speaks without thinking then the world knows a fool.
It is said there are no Atheists in foxholes (but I am certain there are and many are wonderful people) but there are more than a few in this world that could use a moment or two to think over their words before revealing themselves to the world at large.
The death penalty is just. Don't care for it? Then lay down your own life as did the One some here choose to mock when His name is called out by those about to pay the price for their crimes.
Just a thought or two on the subject. Be well.
