Yes. Petition Russ through a barrage of complaints if you want a Mixed Gender Stoning forum.

Will nobody cast the first stone?

Is there none among us without sin?

Hey, I've already got a bag of ice on my head. I named the perpetrator, but was moderated.

That was a quick mod too. Posted my post, saw there were three replies, clicked on it and gone!

Well, I guess the moderators are without sin.

Sin by what definition?
By the Bible's definition, I think I may have coveted my neighbours Jaguar, certainly his wife. I haven't carved any graven images, though.
By my own code of morals, I believe I have transgressed that once or twice too.
That counts me out.

Everybody knows I'm out.

Let sin be defined as breaking that moral code that serves as the standard for your decisions in life.

Sin is generally defined in a religious context, isn't it?

By your definition, I am a sinner. I'll chuck a stone though.

WHACK! Take that nemesio!

You are not allowed to cast the First Stone until you claim that you are without sin.

The Stone thus remains to be cast.

This isn't the Religion forum. I'll define it as the spirit moves me.

Curious, which branch of theology teaches you that belief ?
