@c @teknomunk @sickburnbro Yeah there's a distinction. Say you capture a prisoner in a war caught redhanded doing an unspeakable act. If the law says he's to be executed the next day at noon, that's that. Offer him a priest/pastor and the chance to repent. You don't delay execution hundreds of days until you stonewall him into (probably insincerely) saying yes. People can die in combat because it's a war. That is different from a criminal caught doing "execution worthy" things.
