The word 'soul' isn't approprite when we're talking about humans because, in my opinion, other animals also have souls. But we can't communicate with animals well enough to apply laws to them.

Yeah it is appropiate when it's dealing with human beings. Aniamls have a soul but not spirits that's why we can't apply laws to them. It is inappropiate for a person to kill someone innocent. I just won't give then death, I would just leave it up to God and let him handle the murderer. He should go to prison but not killed really. How would you feel if someone killed your dad or your mother?
Sydney,
Not alot of people are going to follow what the bible commands to do in John 8:7. Some people are still going to do the death penalty and seek revenge on people who killed their loved ones. That's what makes it kinda sad.
It also states in Matthew 26:52-53: for all who draw the sword will die by the sword.
And in proverbs: What you reap is what you sow.
