No, let's start with you and others like you. It would do good for society. And FYI, men don't cheat.
Not me. I'm not the one that wants execution of adulterers. Since you do, we'll limit it to you. Maybe we should pass a law with your name, applicable only to you.
Don't think its really a religious thing. Think its more a societal thing that they paint with religion to justify.
If you got outed in the 3rd Reich you like the Jews had to sew a a pink triange on your jacket or arm whereit could be visible. When the time came you joined the Jews on the trains to the Death Factories because like the Jews you also had no place in the New Order.

Ultimately people kill other people to protect their own interests from what they consider a threat.
'Threat' can take various forms... a woman who commits adultery may represent a threat in terms of desired conduct of women. Religion can take the form of an 'enabler' or 'disabler', in the interpretation of such acts. Jesus preached forgiveness of sin, and that philosophy would serve as a deterrent to the stoning death of a woman caught in adultery.
Maybe because Muslims, Jews, and Christians believe in the same Abrahamic God, and the same basic principles of creation and morality?
That isn't true. Muslims believe in a very different God than Christians do. They also think of Jesus as just a good man, not God Incarnate. To believe, "Turn the other cheek" would make no sense to them.

As do the Jews. Will you extend the courtesy of believing in the Abrahamic god to Jews, at least? (Difficulty level: Abraham was a Jew.) And if so, why does a lack of belief in Jesus' divinity exclude the Muslims, but not the Jews?
