why would you choose a random comment in the bible like "eye for an eye" over an actual commandment "though shalt not kill" ?

I'm sorry, but from my perspective to argue in favor of capital punishment by citing the bible is nothing but folly

Not to mention that the original word for "kill" applies to all forms of killing, not just humans.

Forget about sensical discussions based on bibilical statements.

Exactly, by basing their argumentation on bible quotes people feel what they say is justified by "god", which ofcourse is rubbish and can't lead to any productive discussion.

Btw as another clueless person from Germany I personally think (and I hope you forgive me for voicing my opinion) a rigorous birth control programm might be a promising way to "save" Africa over time (that's a fairly lengthy process), as a good deal of the problems seem to stem from overpopulation. Ofcourse Europe and NA and so on have to take the risk to establish bilateral dependencies with Africa aswell, instead of just exploiting the continent.

I'm 100% with you!

But apparantly it's a violation of human rights or some other BS like that.

There are too many children born into poverty here.
