Is the Death Sentence wrong?  

If someone has committed a crime involving taken someone else life, should they pay with their own life?

If so, what is the most human way of executing someone. ...

There is no evidence that it acts as a deterrent against crime. it is nothing more than state sponsored vengeance killing.

There is nothing good about a death sentence, it is unethical.

Of course it's a deterrent against crime. Most killers kill more than once.
Execute them. Stop them doing it again.

death penalty does not exist in Greece .
Nobody  has the right to decide about the death of a person.

i think there must be death sentence,especially in China.

any deliberate act of murder , terrorism or serious crimes like rape should be punished with death sentence. Ony thing is that the death sentence should be carried out in the most possible humane way and not by torture to death.
