Why Stoning?

We all cringe at the Muslim practice of stoning, which is part of their vile, barbaric shari'a law.  Yet Bible had the practice too?  WHY?

Upshot of the answer, is an epiphany for me:  THE PRACTICE PREDATES ISRAEL, as does so much of what is in the Mosaic Law.  So the world's people were barbaric: God uses what they know, repackages their 'law' to teach them how to become.. human.  Pretty much every law in the Mosaic Law is phrased in terms of 'you shall not be like other nations', and then the procedure, rule, law has great surface similarity TO every other nation.. until you think over the meaning!

So that's why Israel was to become a NATION, as the nations around her were all barbaric.  So that's why the Mosaic Law was so satirical yet severe: satirical, if you sin you get meat to eat (sacrifice God would make FOR you, memorialized);  severe, if you didn't REST on the sabbath, you were put to death.

Think it over.  That's what I do, in the video.
