... There could be no such thing as a prison in a truly Christian society. People who would disagree with this statement would argue that there is no better way of punishing a person, and it is the lesser of two evils, we could give them community service, but then they would be liable to roam the streets. Prison is order and protection; it protects society from criminals and reduces crime. Without a prison system, the streets would not be to walk, due to murders, rapists, stalkers etc. Prisons are also retribution and there to respect the law. It is also a deterrent to others. 60000 of the prisoners are men and 3000 are women, all of these have the chance of doing a reform programme inside the prison. We shall never live in a truly Christian society, because we all have faults, no-body is perfect. Other people that would agree
