You're right, it's not up to me to judge...but it is up to the legal system to judge.
Maybe because I think that we as a society should be more humane than those that take lives? Maybe because I view all life as precious?

And the legal system obviously thinks that prisioners should be accorded the right to have their death observed in accordance to their religion.
