[Nepharski]

Eh... I'm guessing you're basing this on the New Testament, which message is based on peace and love. But gosh, the Old Testament... I wouldn't be surprised if there's more things about killing in order to "purge the evil from among us". No joke, there's one chapter that has "You must purge the evil from among you" at the end of every verse, giving a reason to stone someone. Spooooky stuff... Sorry, I'm just having a bit of fun with this subject now.

Interestingly enough, there is a verse hidden somewhere amongst the books of the Old Testiment, proclaiming that stoning is a suitable punishment for slackers.

*Suddenly, in devine justice, Sligs everywhere drop dead.*

Yes, I am basing my argument off the New Testiment. The general concept, is that Jesus died, and ergo paid for our sins. Before his sacrifice, sinners had to be redeemed via animal sacrifice, or, "paying," for their sin, and I don't mean cash. Jesus died, so that that sinners could cast off their sin, and sin no longer, and be free of it...as opposed to getting stoned on the first sign of, shall I say, "evil activities." In Christianity, the concept is that no sin(s) is/are too dark and terrible to be forgiven...assuming they are halted as well (So none of this saying your sorry and doing it yet again nonsense).

On a side note, I am currently working on a guide to the Bible...just to explain why I believe exactly what I believe.
