Yes, you've "explained" it. That doesn't change the fact of what is in your holy book. It says unruly children are to be put to death - by stoning - throwing rocks at the bound victim until he or she is dead. It's hard for me to imagine a crime a child could commit which would warrant the death penalty - and a death penalty meeted out in such a cruel, torturous fashion.
Civil laws of most countries do not permit such a thing.
Again you are wrong, the stoning is not meant for small children. I assume you're an adult, yet you are the child of your parents, yes, these are the children scripture speaks of. Good grief, as Charlie would say, how many times do I have to spell this out before it sinks in. Come to think of it maybe some on here are not adults.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
