Not to mention, Israel has killed Millions of innocents, and harmed hundreds of millions with their actions....let's not forget that...

Seems it's more like how you and the other bashers like to use Westboro Baptist as an example of true Christianity

You are still over-extending yourself by accepting the absurd assumption in this method of slander.

1) All societies/cultures/religions have certain practices that can be pointed out as morally and logically bankrupt.

2) Saying one "bad" practice sums up a religions is no more valid than saying one "good" practice sums them up entirely.

3) Stoning animals to death, of which humans are animals lest we forget, is a fairly difficult thing to defend on a moral level, just admit it is inappropriate, whether it is humans, dogs, or rabbits. All you are arguing in this post is "yeah it's bad but this is other practice is worse so forget the fact they are doing something wrong." In so doing, all you have done is lent legitimacy to the absurdity I pointed out above.

There is nothing wrong with killing a dog that has harmed someone else.  It's pretty common to do that actually.

Nice dodge, the distinction is clearly the manner in which the animal is killed.

I don't see anything wrong with stoning a rabid dog to death.

I don't see a problem with stoning.  In Israel, they are pretty humane about it.  Generally, they use a crane and drop a large slab of concrete on the creature.  That way, it's as painless as possible (crushed to death immediately) and it is in accordance with rabbinic law.

You wouldn't, but your moral compass has been demagnetized for several years now.



Great use of resources, but the thing down and be done with it, no need to maximize the suffering of a living creature, and certainly no need to have it be done at the hands of children.

Quote (thundercock @ Jun 19 2011 01:24am)

It's not maximizing the suffering of a vile beast.  It's not like we're burning it alive or tearing it apart limb by limb.  As I said before, it's relatively humane compared to most other methods of execution.
