C. Ham BS: Teenager stoned: A Story, which beggars belief (240* d) RE: BS: 13 year old girl stoned to death 04 Nov 08


The Jews (as a religious community) never accepted Jesus as a true prophet of God and do not include the New Testament in their teachings. Therefore it appears to me that the Jews are the one group among those 3 great religions who could, if they so desired, stone people without clearly violating their own stated religious beliefs and the teachings they claim to follow!

The evolution of Judaic law did not end with the five books of the Torah (or what Christians call the Old Testament). They continued to evolve through the Talmud and through jurisprudence through the centuries.

Stoning, in biblical Judaism, was a punishment carried out in specific circumstances, in a proscribed manner (not by mobs), after an evolved criminal justice process.

Stoning, under any circumstances, was explicitly banned in Jewish law after the destruction of the Second Temple nearly 2,000 years ago.

Little Hawk's statement is a lie.
