I don’t think the form of capital punishment is the problem.

Hanging isn’t a very sanitized form of capital punishment, we’re you outraged when Saddam was hung?

Would you be outraged if Saddam was stoned?

And as for Adultery being a Capital Crime, I haven’t heard any moral or non-moral, for that matter, arguments proving that Adultery should not be a capital crime besides the ones based on emotion.

Why shouldn’t adultery be a capital crime or jaywalking for that matter? I'm being facetious here but adultery is not a capital crime in most people’s minds because we don’t value faithfulness, vows, or marriage but if someone kills someone we accept murder as a capital offense because we value human life just not marriage.

It is compared to stoning, even if done wrong, it is more humane than stoning. You should move to Iran if you value marriage more than life, and think death by torture is acceptable. One thing is for certain. You don’t belong in any civilized country. BTW there is no apostrophe in were.
