Pretty impossible. Jesus didn't get off death row, so if you follow Jesus, you shouldn't either.How could we do this?
People who don't claim to follow Jesus, otoh ...

Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
Execute as planned.How could we do this?
That way afterwards they will then be officially off death row and automatically get that one way ticket on the Jesus train courtesy of the prison system.

If following Jesus is a condition we don't. That would be cruel and wickedly unfair.How could we do this?

Why? What about those of other religions or no religion?
That is totally immoral
The punishment people receive from the criminal justice system should have nothing to do with their faith, or lack of faith
You basically propose to treat Christians better than non-Christians.......
That is sick and reprihensible
You are basically saying that a Christian has more of a right to live than a non-Christian
I don't think you've really thought this one through

'WHY would you do this' is the question I would ask.How could we do this?
I look at Jesus's followers, & see that Jesus
inspires slavery, murder, theft, & all sorts of sins.
The majority of criminals in prison are already
Christian.

Yup. And what so many fail to understand is that according to Jesus himself that peace amd love thing is reserved for those who follow him and submit to him. He merely tolerates everybody else and doesn't see reason to make most peoples' lives harder, but while the rest of Biblical figures are prone to promoting horrible, violent amd often deadly actions against everybody else, including Jesus' dad who plans to ultimately destroy all those everybody elses.I look at Jesus's followers, & see that Jesus
inspires slavery, murder, theft, & all sorts of sins.

Technically, but so do tests of faith to hold public office but they happen anyways.
That's just because the majority of people in America in general are Christian.I look at Jesus's followers, & see that Jesus
inspires slavery, murder, theft, & all sorts of sins.

Yeah, blame the teachings not the followers.I look at Jesus's followers, & see that Jesus
inspires slavery, murder, theft, & all sorts of sins.

What percent weren't christians before they landed in prison?
IOW, how many took that role while in prison?
Some reasons why inmates become christian/religious while in prison....
"The reasons for insincere religious involvement included: protection, inmate convergence, interaction with women volunteers, and access to prison resources."

And yet....it's how so many Christians behave.
One criminal, a janitor who worked at a gym
where I worked explained that he was very
careful between the time he assaulted someone,
& the time he got home to pray. This way he
still would get into Heaven.
Others will have their rationalizations for what
they do, eg, scripture, but a faith is what its
adherents do (IMO).
Or both.Yeah, blame the teachings not the followers.
From what I hear, there are grim teachings aplenty.
