I asked for justification as to why he thinks it's immoral and what evidence or logic he's using, and all I get is a foul-mouthed rant. Is that what the Atheists of this forum are reduced to? Argument from ridicule? Not surprising that some people on here can't reason, we're looking at a very old age group in Min. Intellect isn't sharp at such an age.(March 8, 2013 at 11:42 am)mo66 Wrote: Calm down dear. You're quite old, nearing the end of your life.

Min wasn't the one justifying the stoning of another human being. Now tell us again who has a malicious vile attitude.

I see you used the "In the case of adultery", but this is something you can't apply to murderers.... And popular justice is almost always exaggerated and often misguided, so justice should be dealt with by a third party, aka, the judicial system.
You make a good point but we are also talking about very different types of behaviors. I don't think anyone here would disagree that murder is a far more heinous and far-reaching crime than adultery.
So, while it is appropriate for the justice system to take action on a murder which is primarily a social crime, it is a very different thing for the justice system to take on adultery, which is, by-and-large, a personal misjudgement.
