Oh for crying out loud.
Y'all religious fanatics need to get overselves and stop this propaganda hating.
Like the Bible didn't prescribe stoning to death for adulterers. And don't give me that crapp about 'it's no longer valid, it's in the old testament' because you guys still pay tithe.

tunnytox:

This is not propaganda hating dear, this is an incident that did happened and its being reported, yes stoning was in old testament in the Bible, what they practice in old testament is not Xtianity that Jesus brought for us its Judaism and that is the more reason why Jesus never allowed that woman caught in adultery to be stoned he challenged every religious fanatics who came to ask him whether to stone the woman to cast the first stone if they are not guilty themselves.

mazaje:

Jesus agrees and fully supports stoning to death of disobedient children. . .In fact he was berating the people for not upholding the law that says that should stone to death their disobedient children. . .

Mat 15:1 Then some Pharisees and teachers of the law came to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked,
Mat 15:2 "Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? They don't wash their hands before they eat!"
Mat 15:3 Jesus replied, "And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition?
Mat 15:4  For God said, 'Honor your father and mother' [fn] and 'Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.' [fn]
Mat 15:5 But you say that if a man says to his father or mother, 'Whatever help you might otherwise have received from me is a gift devoted to God,'
Mat 15:6 he is not to 'honor his father [fn]' with it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition.

[size=15pt]This passage above shows that jesus clearly was in favor of stoning to death of children that disobey their parents[/size]. . . By the way jesus said that he did not come to destroy the law of the OT but to fulfill them. . . .Christian also did this before so no need pointing fingers at the moslems. . .go read up a lil history and all the atrocities committed in the name of Jesus . . .

Am i the only one disgusted by the fraudulent and deliberate misquoting of the bible? Was Christ REALLY advocating the stoning to death of disobedient children? Why then did he stop the stoning of the woman caught in adultery? Was He practicing double standards?

Careful and HONEST reading of Matthew 15 tells us what was happening . . . the pharisees were trying to trap Christ and His disciples with a LITERAL interpretation of the laws of Moses namely - it is wrong to eat with unwashed hands.

Well Christ simply countered them by saying . . . if you accuse my disciples of not following the letter of the law then you are also hypocrites for NOT stoning your disobedient children which is also a part of the law. Which is why He calls them hypocrites in verse 7.

mazaje:

Sure Jesus was displaying that he was a hypocrite. . .Remember he was berating them for not following the LAW of god and putting their traditions above it. . . .

toba:

Jesus was never mad to support madness.Jesus is the prince of peace&not prince of madness or murder.Thats y we celebrate christmas,instead of jungle justice by God,jesus laid himself as a sacrificial lamb so as to avoid these barbaric acts.Yet it still occurs

tunnytox:

@mazaje
you are obviously taking the Bible passage out of context and i'm not going to open up an argument with you on that, what I'm happy about is that at this age and times only fools will allow themselves to be deceived without taking time to read, study and find out the truth.

toba:

I now know we have frivolous people on nairaland.Imagine some religious bastards in an african country decided to kill&terminate d lives of fellow human beings,yet some fools are trivialising matter.What concern jesus with these? Was it him that told them to kill/was it God that said they should carryout jungle justice.I implore all christians to ignore unfruitful arguements.Very soon they can start another BOKO HARAM.Pls ignore these idle people

davidylan:

Read that portion of the bible you are deliberately misquoting again . . . it doesnt say such nonsense.
