You forgot one other punishment: hanging. They did that for murder and for repeat offenders too.

Better those that cannot or would not normally behave be forced to behave because at least they would not currupt others through wrong doing.
All crime would be dramatically reduced.

Do yourself a favour and open history book. There was no "separation of church and state" in colonial America, which was Puritan colony.

Ummm, actually, Virginia was a Royal Colony, with the Church of England as it's state church. Same as England. New England was where the congregationalists made their stand.

how would respect and care come back. if ppl are pretending to be nice bc theyre afraid of unusual punishment then theres really no respect.
