I don't really know if I agree with the premise of this essay, mostly due to its deeply religious argument. Beyond its intense spirituality however its message is quite clear- the writer considers prisons to be a horrific phenomenon, and because horror is a reaction of morality, a morally unacceptable phenomenon.

The writer goes on to emphasize that prisons are morally unacceptable, but also importantly the normalization of imprisoning humans to be morally unacceptable.
