I am confused. Doesn't it take two to commit adultery? Does this mean the lone man was the Iranian Casanova, visiting these women in different locations? Or does it mean that there is a good ol' boys mentality in Iran?

That's pretty funny coming from an American. American christians are so weak and pathetic they can't even endure the terrible suffering of eating fish on Friday's to honor and show respect for their god.

I believe that you're in the wrong forum sir, the Islamic forum is a sub-forum of the main forum which is Third World S*** Holes! Thank you!

I'm not a Christian. In fact, I am an atheist.

I consider killing someone for the crime of adultery to be more than a little disproportionate to the "offense" actually committed.

Gee, how religious of them, to stone eight WOMEN to death and not the men who were involved. The one male involved is a mere token to allow them to say they were being evenhanded about it. Hah!

How typical of ALL religions to blame women, the ones with the least power and money, like our own Salem witch trials and burning people alive at the stake. Ahh, religion, you gotta love it, without it, where would anyone get their excuse for murder and genocide.

I don't think the man is being stoned in an attempt to seem fair. Do a little research on womens rights in Iran and you will see clearly they have no interest in being fair, nor appearing to be.
