83-year-old executed in Alabama is oldest inmate put to death in modern US historyAlabama has executed Walter Leroy Moody, 83, who had been convicted of murder for the mail bombing death of a federal judge in 1989. Moody is the oldest person put to death since the Supreme Court reinstated the death penalty in 1976, according to figures compiled by the Death Penalty Information Center. Earlier Thursday, the Supreme Court denied the appeals from Moody's attorney after temporarily delaying his death by lethal injection. Moody was convicted in 1996 for the murder of federal Judge Robert Vance in Birmingham, Alabama. "Moody has spent the better part of three decades trying to avoid justice. Tonight, Mr. Moody's appeals finally came to a rightful end. Justice has been served," Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall said. Moody's attorneys had appealed to the Supreme Court after Alabama's high court denied his petition for a stay of execution. He was convicted in Alabama for sending a bomb that killed Vance, a federal appeals court judge. Moody, according to prosecutors, sought revenge on the court and the judge because they had previously refused to overturn his conviction in a 1972 bomb possession case. He also was convicted in federal court in 1991 for killing Vance and for the bombing death of Robert Robinson, an NAACP attorney in Savannah, Georgia. He was sentenced to life in prison. Moody had maintained he was framed. Moody turned down a final meal from the state instead eating two Philly cheese steak sandwiches and drinking two Dr Peppers during a visit with friends and attorneys at the Holman Correctional Facility in Atmore, Alabama, where he was executed. www.cnn.com/2018/04/19/us/alabama-walter-moody-execution/index.html

This is the Forensic Files episode of Leroy Moody.
The "Pope" seems to have ideas different than what I see in the bible. (Scratches head)

I don't know. On a windy day you can see how the wind has an affect, it's there.
Can you see the wind ?

The fact that I have never met or had a conversation with anyone after they have been declared dead is conclusive evidence.

It's only evidence that you've never met or had a conversation with them. You've never met or had a conversation with my granddaughter either. Following your logic, she doesn't exist either.

Seriously, superstition is defined as, "A widely held but unjustified belief in supernatural causation leading to certain consequences of an action or event, or a practice based on such a belief."

I agree, no side though has proof or can disprove, & the dead cannot talk. Yet energy does not just disappear, it takes a different form. Even science is not evolved enough to even truly understand the earth. Or even the human. I like keeping an open mind, due to that. Consequences? Only two, there is nothing or there is. Due to personal not religious, not because I wish for it or fear death, there is something beyond.

Ah, to believe or not to believe. That is the question.
Let's see.
If I believe, and I was wrong, it doesn't really matter. I'm dust.
If I don't believe, and I was wrong, sh*t.
For myself, I know with certainty there's more. So, for me, it's a fact. I have a need or want to prove it. It's enough to know. I don't pretend to know what the more is.

I agree and i'll add one more thing. I'm not practicing religious but IF belief in an afterlife gets me through the day,(loss of a loved one) then it's done it's job. whether it turns out to be true or not is really kinda irrelevant.

I know with certainty there's more. No you do not! The fact that you genuinely believe there is more does not make it a certainty. I don't pretend to know what the more is. But you do pretend to know there is more. In that case I just hope you're not selected for jury duty.

But you do pretend to know there is more. In that case I just hope you're not selected for jury duty. Nope. I know with absolute certainty because it's been proved to my satisfaction. The fact that you don't believe me, does not make it any less a fact. I wouldn't be selected for jury duty anyway because of my 3 year+ experiences with the court.

Nope. I know with absolute certainty because it's been proved to my satisfaction. You're still very confused. You do NOT know as a certainty that there is more; you believe as a certainty that there is. Hence, there is a difference.

You believe I am. There is indeed a difference.

Do you think there is a vengeful spirit who punishes those who guessed incorrectly? A kind of demonic Monty Hall?

If someone else told you that they had had a conversation with someone after they had been declared dead, would you regard that as providing some evidence that there is life after death? If you started to hear what seemed to be the voices of the dead, and they conversed with you, would you regard that as providing some evidence that there is life after death?

Do you think there is a vengeful spirit who punishes those who guessed incorrectly? A kind of demonic Monty Hall? I was joking. No, I don't personally believe that (if there is a God or deity or great white spirit) He would punish those who guessed incorrectly any more than She'd punish those who had no opportunity to choose. But, there are actually people ~ a whole huge group of them, in fact ~ who believe just that.

It sounds to me like you might have some kind of an electrical disturbance going on underneath your yarmulke, son.
