All the adulterers I’ve run across are Christian Nationalists. They are so fucking stupid…
Yeah, but they’re Christians…
So as long as they repent they still go to heaven.
Meanwhile anyone that doesn’t believe Jesus was literally gods son is going to hell even if they follow all the rules someone made up 2,000 years ago
These people are morons lead by religiously incompetent preachers.
The whole point of that passage from the bible is everyone has sinned, therefore everyone is a sinner and must repent.
Just because you repent does not mean you are sin free, and therefore should not be casting stones.
I was raised Church of England, which is a Christian denomination that has a comparatively light touch when it comes to theological teachings and EVEN I know that!
And if I had to guess, at least one or two will be caught in the act themselves!
My father in law is one of these wackos. I think he is on his 5th or 6th wife. His daughter has been married to me longer than all of his marriages combined.
Are they starting with Donald Trump?
“He who is without sin cast the first stone.”
Jesus said that. These people don’t sound like actual Christians, or that they’ve actually read the New Testament.

Jesus also said looking at a woman with lust in your heart is the same as adultery. I wonder if that’s how they define adultery, too.
“But that was added later! Some manuscripts don’t have that!”
—Christian apologists
Didn’t Jesus have a very famous and well known opinion on stoning?
They seem to believe that getting to cast the first stone is the reward for sinlessness
It’s the reward for piousness. You can sin all you want, as long as you pray for forgiveness and give yourself over to Jesus. Then you are washed clean of sin. The other person that didn’t immediately admit their sins and pray for forgiveness enough…they are sinners that deserve to be stoned.
Well, they’ve got a lot of Christians to stone then. They’d better get started.
Definitely important for them to start in their own communities and churches. Do rapey pastors too plz.
Without reading the article, can I guess only the woman gets stoned?
Nah…. Everybody must get stoned!
That’s progress, I guess… Lol
I agree there - if you need me, I’ll be over in c/trees…
A seemingly large number of Christians simultaneously claim they are not beholden to the old testament cause that’s between Jewish people and God, and also claim that all this hateful shit they cherry pick and misinterpret from the Old Testament must be carried out today cause it’s in the Bible.
But will there be any of them left after they’re done?
sigh, another magazine just promoting commercial opportunities for itself

“No no no, adultery is worse than stoning” these people want to stone the children they rape to death, period. They say it out loud on their podcasts.
“Stone the sinners” is an easier sell than “eliminate the witnesses”.
People advocating this kind of overthrow of government, and this kind of threat of violence, should go to prison.
Imagine if Ahmed and Akmal were saying shit like this on the “Sharia in the USA” podcast. The FBI would be kicking down their door before the episode finished playing.
They should try getting stoned, they need to chill
