Recently there has been a re-emergence of the question of capital punishment. Opinion polls in Britain inform us that half the population are in favor of the return of the death penalty, but just how effective would it be? Some cry that crime is becoming more violent and increasing on an alarming【C1】______. Is this really true, though? People wonder. Surely, just as the population increases,【C2】______proportionally will crime. The same is also true【C3】______violence: more violence is to be expected as the world becomes more 【C4】______populated. If we consider whether the ancient religious law of bringing down the same punishment on the wrong-doer as he committed is【C5】______ in modern society, then we also have to take into【C6】______the equally strong religious law which urges us to show compassion and forgiveness.
