stoned

From The Huffington Post

On Sunday, Islamic militants stoned a man to death for adultery in front of hundreds of local residents in Somalia. The man, named Mohamed Abukar Ibrahim, 48, was killed by members of the rebel group Hizbul Islam in Afgoye, 20 miles from the capital Mogadishu, according to the AFP. A second man, Ahmed Mohamoud Awale, 61, who was accused of murder, was shot to death. Hundreds of villagers were forced to watch the stoning by the militants, multiple reports said.

The girl with whom Ibrahim was accused of having an affair received 100 lashes; she escaped being put to death because she was not married at the time of the alleged sexual relations.

    This is crazyness…These kinds of countries are always harping about being recognized as people too, civil rights etc…Ummmm, act like you deserve to be treated as such. How can they condemn the man for adultery by committing murder on him? Is anyone else seeing this like I am, or is it just me that finds this horribly hypocritical? “You catch your child lying, so in turn you go steal a belt to whoop the kids azz”. This is to the EXTREME..stoning, 100 lashes, shot to death? DAMN! And I thought the south never changed….

    @ Butterfly_145-> No! You’re NOT wrong for being upset! You SHOULD be upset! This ‘Stoning’ stuff is WRONG!! This is what happens when Jack-@$$es take the Bible LITERALLY!! Half-@$$ed Christians (of WHATEVER Faith) aren’t QUITE as dangerous as those whom KNOW THE ENTIRE BIBLE AND TAKE IT ALL LITERALLY!! Us Atheists DO NOT believe in or condone such atrocities!! Period! ;-)

    That’s the rules of the culture and refection of Nubia, which I will add; Has been in place before Islam, Judia and Christian belief came about!! Also that practice was done here (13 original colonies) in the early 1600′s by Puritan Christians, later by slave owners, towards slave(s) whom committed said sexual deviant activities,that is extra-marital (1690 to 1800)!These acts are no longer needed, some States will press charges to the deviant ( Tennessee it’s a Felony “E”) The chance of you committing an extra-marital deviancy, today is 38.43% …..be happy you live in North America!!!!
