 Ashmoo omitted the sentence “Some other religions such as Judaism traditionally prescribe death punishment for apostasy and blasphemy (see stoning), but have in practice not executed these punishments for thousands of years. " from the article.  

 Although this sentence is not an explicit answer to any particular criticism but makes the Christian and Jew reader to think maybe there is some reason that there is such a commandment in the Bible. The answer to that question can be an answer to our criticism. If anybody knows why God prescribed such a commandment in Bible, I would appreciate it. Thanks.
