Belial,
My point is that different societies will have different notions of justice. Those different notions of justice will be realized in different laws. One example might be that of Capital Punishment. Indeed, I would be very surprised if the enormous range of human societies reduced to a single point of view on this or any subject.
On weakness in the anti-death penalty argument is that it will accept the death penalty only if is there is no possible chance of failure. As there exists no example of any work of human hands being 100%, then one might question why that should be expected of the Justice System.
