Do you agree that incarceration is a better method of correction than corporal punishment? Why or why not?

Personally, I agree. However, this could also depend on the level of the grave offense. Incarceration is definitely a punishment where the detainee has ample time to contemplate on his wrongs and with added activities provided by the government in prison, he can think things out. Corporal punishment may be applied to those highly grave offenses like having killed a person since sometimes it's the physical pain that knocks some sense out of people, rather than solitary confinement.

I agree that Incarceration is a better form of punishment over the corporeal punishment ... I don't think that using bodily harm will bring about any good ... Whereas if they are incarcerated they can take the time to review their actions and hopefully come to terms with what they did wrong.
