You conclude that god never put an adulterer to death; this wasn't the claim. God never said that he would put an adulterer to death; he proclaimed that his followers do the dirty work. The biblical examples you give showing that they didn't put to death adulterers only proves that god's most earnest followers thought he was full of shit on the subject.
This is totally incorrect. Jesus WAS God, he pardoned an adulterer. The prophet of God, pardoned David. Prophets hear from God and declare. The biblical writters called Joseph a righteous man because he did not have Mary stoned, and that was before the angel even spoke to him.
You want to believe God is bad so you can keep living your own sinful life style. I know he is not. Ask victims of crime are laws tough enough, and often their answer is no, people get off too easy. Tough laws promote clean societies. God just wanted a clean society he did not want sinners killed.
Hey I love God he is awsome.
