While the C of E continues to debate how to finally abandon actual religious dogma, the Iranian Shiites are still enforcing 'old time religion' like the 7th century was only last week.
Yes they are still whipping and stoning women and male adulterers as though it was only yesterday that Allah had commanded them to do so ..... oddly, despite their claim that Jesus is a 'prophet' of Islam, obviously his command that 'only he is without sin should cast the first stone' is is to be completely ignored in favour of inflicting torture and pain, mainly on women. Under pressure from the world community they have 'suspended' the stoning of Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani, although crucially they have not said that she won't be killed some other way...... she has already been given 99 lashes witnessed by her son, then in his late teens.
As this blog has discussed before, stoning women to death is still 'alive and well' in the Islamic world ..... at least the Iranians are 'equal opportunity stoners' with men as well as women stoned, although, its made harder for women ...somehow.
I won't post any pictures of the horror that is a stoning, but simply searching for 'stonings' and images, show the degradation and terror that bearded men of god inflict, when given unrestricted power over ordinary men and women's lives. Every person of conscience should think about this poor woman and the other both men and women who face death for nothing at the hands of Sharia laws.
