While other issues have importance-- some more than others --the common denominator of death does in no way connect the two subjects.
Of course it does. Being pro-life and not against the Death penalty is a morally bankrupt and indefensible position.

Because of original sin, I guess.

and I support the death penalty when applied to truely guilty criminals who actually understand what they did was wrong and why the punishment deserves to be death.
There are 6 billion people on this planet, if you are immoral enough to do something warranting the death penalty, you are a cancer and should be severed.
Thats it, I don't think killing a pre-mature baby is the same thing at all.
However, since we've got plenty of people on this planet, who's going to miss them? I don't think anyone really got to know them, so who cares.
This stregthens the point that we are all just organisms, fu[b][/b]ck, you could make a case that every sperm and every egg is a potential person and by not fertilizing, you are denying them life. So kill them pre-conception, post-conception, pre-birth, post-birth, when they are 10, 20, 30, 40 50 60 70 80 its all death.
We are just big pieces of meat. If someone gets out of line, kill em, the other 5,999,999,999 of us will pick up the slack.
Killing a fetus is more PC, but is not really any different then killing them when they are an 5 years old, except for the wasted time and money, and the emotional effects, since the child had times to build bonds with other human animals.
