Ok I see that you're just not good at this... you posted a link about women around the world being stoned to death TODAY in modern times to disprove that stoning has been around before ISLAM.... nice
5. So, stoning is religiously justified?
Although Islam and Muslim codes of law are often used to justify the use of stoning as a punishment for adultery
, there is actually no reference to stoning in the Koran. Furthermore, there are many prominent clerics and religious scholars who openly oppose the practice of stoning and have called it "Islamically unjustifiable." For example, Grand Ayatollah Yousef Sanei, a very prominent Shi’a cleric in Iran, issued a fatwa (a religious edict) against the practice of stoning.
This is from your own source you dikkbag
I get legitimacy from the Quran itself... if it's shown to have been translated wrong I will gladly adopt the most correct translation accordingly, it's the right thing to do. You can criticize Islam if you want, that's your right but you'd criticize it regardless of which translation it is. Ain't no bait and switch, I know not everyone interprets the religion tthe same.... but the Quran is the Quran... i know when people are following it or following something from the hadith.... The Quran is not a large book. If anyone is guilty of bait n switch it's you... just scroll up a bit .
