“All I am asking for is valid reasons on why adultery should not be a capital offense besides...”

Did you read 38? You yourself explained that since adultery doesn’t kill anyone it isn’t the same as murder. Do you think jaywalkers or litterers ought to be executed too? Thats how you sound when you ask people to explain why adultery shouldn’t be a capital offense. It’s obvious to anyone with a brain.

If it was so obvious why couldn’t you explain your position; because you never thought it through, that’s why.

And ad hominem attacks are not arguments nor reasons for adultery being or not being a capital offense.

Of course I explained that adultery doesn’t kill anyone so that’s why the idea of adultery being a capital offense is so repugnant to most people.

I had to make the argument for you b/c you were too busy calling me names.

And read my posts to the poster “odd”. I already addressed the jay walking issue.

Simply put: whoever transgresses what is highly valued in a society will incur the death penalty. Faithfulness in marriage is not highly valued so it will not incur the death penalty in our society.

I understand your argument “eye for an eye”. Valid point, but remember that in the Bible, adultery is punishable by death.Explain this.

My argument is that adultery like every other sexual deviancy is no big deal in our society, except pedophilia.
But just wait the perverts will change that too.
