"Back in the day, humans used chamber pots and lived in a feudal system. It's silly to try and gain reason from times like those."

Not really. Back then we didn't have Human Rights and the like interferring, and it seems we, as a society, are much better off than we would've been if we just said "Ah, okay, yeh...you do that to that child! You want to what? Kill him, too? Oh...sure, yeh, great!"

"Where do human morals go once we take the life of another we know can handle in a controlled environment?"

Wait, why're you arguing with me about the death penalty? I said i was against it...just for the wrong reasons.

But, say, if they were to be killed whilst advancing Medical Science, i wouldn't have a qualm. They serve no purpose to the good of society in life, they may as well serve that purpose in death, whether death.
