> feverish Christian moralizing

I realise that Christianity in the USA _means_ (to the average American) something almost unrecognisable to me as an Englishman. But if we're talking about punitive prison systems don't you think that's a little harsh considering a central tenet is the forgiveness of sins.

That tenet is unfortunately lost on many people in America who are often the most vocal about their faith.
