ASC RESOLUTION ON THE DEATH PENALTY:
Be it resolved that because social science research has demonstrated the death penalty to be racist in application and social science research has found no consistent evidence of crime deterrence through execution, the ASC publicly condemns this form of punishment and urges its members to use their professional skills in legislatures and the courts to seek a speedy abolition of this form of punishment (ASC Annual Meeting, Montreal, 1987).

    Capital Punishment The applied ethics issue of capital punishment involves determining whether the execution of criminals is ever justified, and, if so under what circumstances it is permissible. Philosophical defenses of capital punishment typically draw from more general discussions of punishment. The issue of corrective justice in legal philosophy distinguishes between two principal theories of punishment: utilitarian and retributive. Accordingly, defenses of capital punishment are usually either utilitarian or retributive in nature. By contrast, most criticisms of capital punishment seek to expose flaws in popular justifications of capital punishment. Thus, in the absence of any good reason for executing a criminal, the critic of capital punishment concludes that the criminal should be allowed to live.
    Table of Contents (Clicking on the links below will take you to that part of this article)
    Utilitarian Arguments Concerning Capital Punishment Perhaps the most common defenses of capital punishment are on utilitarian grounds. For utilitarians, punishment in general is justified only insofar as it creates a greater balance of happiness vs. unhappiness. From the utilitarian perspective, then, capital punishment is justified if it (1) prevents the criminal from repeating his crime; or (2) deters crime by discouraging would-be offenders. For, both of these contribute to a greater balance of happiness in society. There are several immediate problems with this line of reasoning. First, the burden of proof is on the defender of capital punishment to show that the same effects could not be accomplished with less severe punishment, such as life imprisonment. This is especially pertinent since the goal of utilitarianism is to reduce as much unhappiness as possible and this entails imposing the least severe of two possible punishments when everything else is equal.

    Capital Punishment Presbyterian General Assemblies have been concerned not only for the issue of capital punishment, but also for those imprisoned. The major policy statements of the past forty years have come in 1959, 1977, and 1978. In 1959, the 171st General Assembly, "believing that capital punishment cannot be condoned by an interpretation of the Bible based upon the revelation of God's love in Jesus Christ," called on Christians to "seek the redemption of evil doers and not their death," and noted that "the use of the death penalty tends to brutalize the society that condones it."
    In 1977, the 189th General Assembly called upon its members to: "a. Work to prevent the execution of persons now under sentence of death and further use of the death penalty; b. Work against attempts to reinstate the death penalty in state and federal law, and where such laws exist, to work for their repeal; c. Work for the improvement of the justice system to make less radical means available for dealing with persons who are a serious threat to themselves and to the safety and welfare of society."

    Capital Punishment in the United States
    • Introduction
    • Colonial America to the 1780s
    • 1789 to the Early 20th Century Introduction The sentence of death has been an accepted form of justice through the ages. Geography, culture, and the passing of time have varied its form, the offenses for which it has been imposed and its recipients. Today in the United States, capital punishment is an integral part of the criminal justice system. Capital punishment has also remained a perennial "hot button" issue; when the average person is asked if he or she supports the death penalty, that person is likely to give a definitive yes or no answer. Therefore, as the national debate continues, it is important to understand how capital punishment has evolved in the United States.

    1979 General Resolution WHEREAS, General Assemblies of the Unitarian Universalist Association have opposed capital punishment by resolutions in 1961, 1966, and 1974; and WHEREAS, the aforementioned resolutions have urged complete abolition of capital punishment as inconsistent with respect for human life; for its retributive, discriminatory, and non-deterrent character; and opposed its restoration or continuance in any form; and WHEREAS, the State of Florida has declared its intent to proceed with the executions of those under the capital sentence in Florida prisons, numbering more than one hundred, and having begun with the execution of John Spenkelink on May 25, 1979; and WHEREAS, the Florida example may become precedent for a new wave of capital punishment in numerous other states; BE IT RESOLVED: That the 1979 General Assembly of the Unitarian Universalist Association urges the Governor of the State of Florida to commute all existing death sentences; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED: That the General Assembly urges Governors of all other states similarly to commute death sentences and to prevent the restoration or continuance of capital punishment in any form.

    Introduction In 1974, out of a commitment to the value and dignity of human life, the U.S. Catholic Conference, by a substantial majority, voted to declare its opposition to capital punishment. As a former president of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops pointed out in 1977, the issue of capital punishment involves both "profound legal and political questions as well as 'important moral and religious issues,'" And so we find that this issue continues to provoke public controversy and to raise moral questions that trouble many. This is particularly true in the aftermath of widely publicized executions in Utah and Florida and as a result of public realization that they are awaiting execution in various prisons. The resumption of capital punishment after a long moratorium which began in 1967, is the result of a series of decisions by the United States Supreme Court. In the first of these decisions

    There is strong evidence that the death penalty is applied in a racist manner. In 1987, in McCleskey v. Kemp , the United States Supreme Court refused to act on data demonstrating the continuing reality of racial bias. Justice William Brennan in his dissenting opinion said, It is tempting to pretend that minorities on death row share a fate in no way connected to our own, that our treatment of them sounds no echoes beyond the chambers in which they die. Such an illusion is ultimately corrosive, for the reverberations of injustice are not so easily confined. McCleskey v. Kemp , 481 U.S. 279, 344 (1987) [Brennan, J. Dissenting]) In 1990, the United States General Accounting Office reported a pattern of evidence indicating racial disparities in charging, sentencing, and imposition of the death penalty: Nationwide, 82 percent of those put to death have been convicted of murdering a white person even though people of color are the victims in more than half of all homicides. In 82 percent of their studies, race of the victim was found to influence the likelihood of being charged with capital murder or receiving a death sentence, i.e., those who murdered whites were found to be more likely to be sentenced to death than those who murdered blacks. This finding was remarkably consistent across data sets, states, data collection methods, and analytic techniques. The finding held for high, medium, and low quality studies.

    Response to the Governor's Commission on Capital Punishment On Monday, April 15, the Governor's Commission on Capital Punishment released its report. The Chicago Tribune asked the candidates for Governor and Attorney General to write an Op-Ed on the recommendations made within the report. Sen. Madigan's response was published in the Tribune on Friday, April 26. For decades most Illinois citizens, prosecutors, judges and juries have believed that the death penalty is the appropriate punishment for those who commit the most brutal and heinous murders. I agree. Clearly, though, the wrongful convictions and death sentences of 13 men have shaken public confidence in our system of capital punishment. Over two years ago, Governor Ryan courageously and correctly halted executions and called for a much needed, comprehensive study of Illinois' death penalty. Now that the Governor's Since reinstating the death penalty in Illinois, more inmates on Death Row have been proven innocent than have been executed. Commission has completed its report, we must act in this legislative session to implement reforms.

    Legal Background of Death Penalty in South Carolina For a number of years, South Carolina operated under a fairly typical death penalty statute which provided for the ultimate penalty for a number of crimes including, but not limited to, murder, rape and kidnapping. The statute predicated the imposition of the death penalty in those situations where the jury made a finding of guilt without an affirmative recommendation of mercy
    Beginning in 1962, there was a moratorium on executions nationally even though death penalty statutes remained in effect. In 1972, the U.S. Supreme Court in the case of Furman v. Georgia, held that the imposition of the death penalty was unconstitutional in those situations where either the court or the jury had practically unfettered discretion to impose the ultimate penalty. The Furman case, in effect, declared most death penalty statutes, including that of South Carolina, in effect to be unconstitutional. In light of the foregoing decisions of the U.S. Supreme Court, the State Attorney General opined that the South Carolina mandatory death penalty for specified circumstances is clearly unconstitutional (75-86 Op. Atty., Gen. #4388, page 224). In response to this ruling of the Attorney General, the General Assembly, in Act 177, Acts in Joint Resolutions of 1977, reenacted our current death penalty statute, which has been codified at Section 16-3-20 Code of Laws of South Carolina, 1976. The current statute has been declared constitutional, both by the State Supreme Court and the United States Supreme Court, State v. Shaw (1979). It was under this statutory scheme that the death penalty was reimposed in South Carolina in January, 1985.

    Who sets policy for the United Methodist Church? Only the General Conference can speak officially for the United Methodist Church. Every four years, delegates at each conference revise the Book of Discipline and Book of Resolutions . The Social Principles, in both books, are described as a "prayerful and thoughtful effort on the part of the General Conference to speak to the human issues in the contemporary world from a sound biblical and theological foundation as historically demonstrated in United Methodist traditions." The Book of Resolutions is not legally binding but serves as a guide for the church for reference, encouragement, study and support. CAPITAL PUNISHMENT

    The United Methodist Church opposes the death penalty and urges its abolition. The Methodist Church, a predecessor of today's United Methodist Church, adopted opposition to capital punishment as an official position in 1956. Current statements follow. The Social Principles, revised by the most recent General Conference in 2000, includes sections on "Basic Freedoms and Human Rights" and "Criminal and Restorative Justice."
