Catholicism isn't anti-death penalty; the current pope is. There is a big difference. Theologically, Catholicism does not say the death penalty is wrong. Culturally, many Catholics including the Pope are against the death penalty.
Theologically, the Catholic Church is viciously against abortion, and you're not supposed to be in the church if you encourage abortion somehow (it's more specific than that, but you get the drift). A number of Protestant denominations are pro-choice in their official positions.
