Beware of 'liberal
christians.' In The Sermon on The Mount Jesus was speaking to the individual about 'turning the other cheek'. Of all the things we know about the crucifixion - and there are many - Jesus did not launch into an attack on capital punishment. On the contrary, there is more than a suggestion that those put to death with him had earned death through their actions - a contrast to Jesus Himself.
