4+ witnesses at the same time at the same place
if it was a live sex act in a Muslim country and at least one of you is married and has a family, stoning is sentenced
this is called credibility,... you can't be a hypocrite and claim you follow this religion
in a religious society, the family and tight-knitted community is what is desired
If some members want to cheat on their wives and show it off to their community, then they will be punished for it if they're caught.
They have the option to DIVORCE, however these people found it convenient to cheat on their family and show it live to 4 or more people. Again you can't enjoy the benefits of a religious society and then be a hypocrite and cheat the community.
I don't know what kind of community you want to live in, but I would like to live in an environment where people are honest with one another and don't play head games, and cheat on one another. If people want to cheat on their families, then do it in a private/secure environment. Why do you want to show it LIVE to 4 or people? This is a civilized community, not a pig farm.
Have you considered that maybe these 4 "witnesses" could be LYING ? All they need is 4 people to agree on a story and they can have ANYONE killed since your religion doesnt not ask for any other proof. Don't be a fool and think those witnesses are always trustworthy...If a tribunal asked for 4 witnesses and nothing else for a death sentence for ADULTERY, it would be considered complete insanity and contrary to every Human Right. Civilized societies don't kill people over sex. That's all.
And just because it's the rule, does not make this rule good. "Hurting the community", making someone sad, is not enough to warrant death ! Thinking so is simply primitive and barbaric.
And you seem thoroughly convinced it is normal and acceptable to do that. You are insane.
