Public punishments happened on Friday morning: whippings, hand-chopping-off and beheadings. We were outside of a fairly small town.
There was only ONE public punishment, just one, in the entire five years we were there and it was a beheading.The guy had committed murder.
We never went to that public square, ever, for any reason. The entire idea was BARBARIC. Muslims and Sharia law...they're hand in hand. We saw that BARBARIANISM and it still appalls me to think of it.
I thank the Lord every day for being born a Christian in the West.
I know we have capital punishment here, but it sure isn't PUBLIC.
“I know we have capital punishment here, but it sure isn’t PUBLIC.”
Us versus them:
We are presumed innocent until proven guilty.
We are tried by a jury of our peers.
We have sentencing hearings.
They have one religious dude that makes up a judgement depending on how he feels that day.
