Yes, I agree. The women should be allowed to cast the first stone and the last stone as well. Amen.

I think we should bring back the death penalty for adultery and homosexual sex.
Can anyone point to anything in the Bible that suggests this would not be acceptable in the eyes of God?
And, if so, why do you think this does not apply to rape, kidnap and murder?
Where is Christ's list of explicit offences for which we can retain the death penalty and which not?
If it is just for man to decide, then why draw the line at adultery and homosexual sex, when God is clear that this is an offence that merits the death penalty?
P.S. I hesitated in including rape in the above list, as God was a bit woolly on whether rape should carry the death penalty. But I will let that one go for the sake of argument.
