People see it as barbaric because its a punishment based on a 1300 year old, plagerised religion. Quite a few humans see no morality in religion, thus basing laws on a man made religious dogma is barbaric. Especially one as locked in the dark ages as Islam....
Capitol Punishment is not barbaric. Its horrific that humans must consider the use of the death penalty against other humans, but when small numbers of humans decide to prey on other member of society, then the ultimate sanction (killing them) becomes necessary. The way I see it personally is like battlefield triage.... Those that are too far gone to be helped are kept as comfortable as possible until their time is up. Those injured who can be saved get priority for medical care and evac. Thats the horrible reality of combat medicine....

Only because you're in a country which is not run by that religion. I'm against barbaric punishments and capital punishment but the hypocrisy flyinging about this thread is incredible.
If the justice system in Somalia works for them then it's not really our place to criticise. Nothing wrong with opinions as long as we accept they might just as well be criticising our ways of life too.

And we've both had that particular conversation before Russ, and if I remember correctly I admitted to that particular hypocrisy.
On another side note Russ. A little less hypocrisy from you would be good as well.

It wasn't aimed at you - and I've always been against capital punishment.

Re: 100 lashes for having affair with divorcee
so you think I am stupid because I have faith? wonder if all the people I have helped on this and other forums and in real life think I am stupid.
Science can not answer all my questions there is more to the universe that just the repercussions of the big bang so I believe in something more ,so thats makes me stupid?

Re: 100 lashes for having affair with divorcee
I would as an atheist like to point out that many of the atheist views expressed in this thread are not representative of ALL atheists...

The justice system doesn't work for them, it's one of the most lawless places on earth, bully for them they can stone a woman, pity they can't do anything about the pirates or terrorists living amongst them, all about priorities I guess
