That shows we punish criminals here.
Prison isn't about punishment it is about rehabilitation. Show me one prison in the U.S. or just Texas that actually punishes criminals. Jesus said to forgive people 7 x 70 and so does your Justice system.

Plato even wrote about it.

As a Christian you should know better.
But you, indeed, have avoided me, and have not been willing to associate with and instruct me; but you have brought me hither, where the law orders those who require punishment, and not discipline, to be brought. Wherefore, O Athenians, this now is manifest which I have said, that Melitus never paid the smallest attention to this affair.
