OK So Alan thinks that the Pope is wrong about " "nothing can justify the spilling of innocent blood." in regard to war, but then again that is an interpretive issue about what is a war and what is innocent. Alan then bucks his own logic when it comes to the Abortion issue and becomes a straight papist. No Death Penalty, No Justification for a Death Penalty against an abortionist even by the Law, and even more so, NO MAKING BABY MURDERING ABORTION DOCTORS OR THE MOMS WHO HIRE THE CONTRACT KILLERS FEEL BAD OR GUILTY. That might inflame someone to do something or pass a law (Neil Horsley's position) that Baby Killing Doctors and their mothers should be prosecuted for capital Murder.
Here is the Video of Alan Keyes in his Ambush pro Papist attack on Neil Horsley.
Now Back in 2000 Keyes made this statement as an answer to:
Q: What is your position on the death penalty?
A: There are certain circumstances in which the death penalty is essential to our respect for life. If we do not in our law send the message to everybody that by calculatedly, coldly taking a human life in a way that assaults the structures of law in a society or shows a cold-blooded and studied disregard for the value of that life, if we are not willing to implement the death penalty in those circumstances, then we are actually sending a message of contempt for human life. We are encouraging people to believe that that step is not in fact a terminal step, when they fatefully and fatally decide to move against the life of another human being. So I think that there are circumstances under which it is essential, in fact, that we have and apply the death penalty in order to send a clear moral message to people throughout our society that we will not tolerate that kind of disrespect for life.

Yet how does he understand the words that he just said when asked this question:
Q: The Pope condemned capital punishment.
A: Having read the Encyclical, the Pope reasserted the Church’s traditional doctrine on capital punishment and He cautioned against the abuse of that position and said that it would be very rare.
Q: You do agree it should be rare?
A: Certainly. I’ve never been somebody who thought that you should be applying capital punishment indiscriminately. But I do believe that it is necessary in certain instances in order for a society to show due respect for life.

Alan Keyes seems to be talking out both sides of his political needs, at one point he wants to sound tough on capital punishment, but if you will notice that he is very careful to choose his words so they are still in line with the Pope. He has given himself a way to be both a papist and a good politician. Notice that he uses the rule of Law and ad then when referring to Abortion, he uses terms that exclude the word 'Lawful' . Where as he thinks ;
"So I think that there are circumstances under which it is essential, in fact, that we have and apply the death penalty in order to send a clear moral message to people throughout our society that we will not tolerate that kind of disrespect for life. '
He must not , by his own statements think that abortion is actually ore meditated whole sale murder and a disrespect for Human life.
Alan Keyes thinks that neil Horsley is wrong for advocating the death penalty for exactly the same reasons that Keyes said it would be OK in his 1995 Lary King Live interview, yet when it was Alan doing the interview of Horsley, it was wrong.... Well maybe if Neil Horsley was a papist it would have been OK.
At least not until the Pope tells him to think that way.
Alan Keyes Papist , stooge of the day.
OH I almost forgot, Alan is PRO BABY KILLING for POLITICAL PURPOSES:
Want proof?Only exception is to preserve life of mother
I MAKE an exception only for the physical life of the mother. Given the unalienable right to life (i.e., self-preservation) I see no way in principle to avoid making this exception. I would ACCEPT the rape and incest exceptions only as a matter of political necessity if that is the best legislation we could achieve at the time. I see no grounds in principle for making these exceptions, but as a matter of political prudence it would be suicidal for the pro-life movement to reject these people.

Political realities of the day. Pastor Slattery and Ron Paul spoke about inflation, foreign policy and the impending crises in the monetary policy of America. All of which has begun to happen since. The interview was not a Bible study interview on it's surface, however anyone who has a bit of understanding of biblical end times will see in the interview Ron Paul's candid straight forward warnings about the setting up of a beastly system.
