What is the extropian stance on capital punishment? Personally, I am
against the death penalty because I don't believe that two wrongs make a
right. However, the issue takes on an added dimension when, in our
envisioned immortalist future, murder is equivalent to denying someone
eternity. What should be the punishment then?
