    The document discusses capital punishment and how both reason and emotion influence views on its virtue. It uses the example of the Boston Marathon bomber case. While reason may look at the severity of the crime and evidence, emotion can create biases in wanting to sympathize with either the victim or criminal. Religions and cultures also influence views, with some accepting it and others strongly opposing it based on teachings. The human sciences suggest punishments don't always deter future crimes, especially if not immediately following the act. Overall, both logical and emotional factors must be considered in the debate around capital punishment.

    other?
    • Punishment is more likely to lead to reduction of
    behavior if it immediately follows the behavior.
