"May God have mercy on your soul and grant you forgiveness and the gift of eternal life in His presence and in that of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ." –Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour in his letter to Earl Wesley Berry, a MS death row inmate.

How can Gov. Barbour write these words to Mr. Berry after denying his appeal? In the same letter that Gov. Barbour refuses to save the life of a man, he wishes mercy on the soul of that same man. Does this not seem like a contradiction?

As Christians we are all called to become like Christ. Christ is our model. His glory, the glory of God, is to be the object of all of our actions!

Who is Gov. Barbour to condemn a fellow human being to death? Who am I to condemn a fellow human being to death? Who is anyone to condemn a fellow human being to death?

Are we not told by scripture to judge no one? Judge the actions, yes. But the person, no. And if the action is wrong, kill it. But do not kill the person so that they may repent!

All across the nation, there are doctors sucking babies out of the womb with no concern for the woman herself. But are we calling for the deaths of these murderous and careless doctors?

Who are we to condemn a grown man or woman for killing a few when doctors are killing hundreds!?

I am sure that Gov. Barbour had good intentions. But his actions were less than Christian.
