Seriously, if your religion demands that you stone people who violate an arbitrary moral code, your religious is completely corrupt. Do something about it. Islam… are you listening?
Recently I posted a blog about the treatment of women in many Islamic states and the fact that such treatment, if following the legal definition, amounts to a crime against humanity. In it, I linked to a document produced by Amnesty International entitled "How to stone someone to death". The document describes in step-by-step detail, as outlined in the Iranian penal code, exactly how to bury someone up to their waist — or chest if female — and throw stones at their head until they die.
I cannot fathom the rational for this type of punishment. Is Islam a stone age religion or simply a tool of oppression?
