I'd say that most people would have an aversion to crucifixion.  It wasn't an easy way to die.  Perhaps the worst & most painful method of execution ever invented by man......but the Romans were known for doing things like that.  Although the Romans didn't invent crucifixion.  The Persians did.

OT -- and please don't read the following paragraph if you are of a sensitive nature:

The Romans had another punishment for murderers.  It involved tying the dead body of the murder victim to the back of the murderer, arm to arm, leg to leg, etc.......and then allowing the murder victim's body to slowly rot off.  In the process, the corruption of the dead body would gradually spread into the living body of the murderer.  Such punishments fit the Roman sense of justice and revenge  - i.e. permitting the murder victim to avenge their own death.  The Romans were such inventive people..........and we'd probably all have an adversion to that.

.........but I'm willing to bet that if the same sort of punishments were still in vogue today: then we'd see a lot fewer murders than we do.

cough cough -- back to talking about Judy.........
