Don’t rightly recall those nasty Jews or Mormons killing those who disobey within their communities.

Just wait, our little encounter with the Muzzies is coming.

"Mountain Meadows" doesn't ring any bells for you?

“Don’t rightly recall those nasty Jews or Mormons killing those who disobey within their communities.”

Actually, Mormons did a bit of thinning of their own herd, and others as well.

“Just wait, our little encounter with the Muzzies is coming.”

When do you think the first game of ‘Cowboys & Muslims’ will be played?

Don’t rightly recall those nasty Jews . . . killing those who disobey within their communities.

Ever read the Bible?

Judaism is essentially a Theocratic religion. The Torah prescribes four different methods of capital punishment: death by stoning, death by the sword, death by strangulation, and death by fire (pouring hot molten lead down the throat). But capital punishment was very rare because of the stringency of Jewish Law (two witnesses to the same overt act, inadmissibility of hearsay, circumstantial evidence, and even confessions). Further the death penalty could only be administered when qorbanot were being brought on the altar and the Sanhedrion was sitting in the Chamber of Hewn Stones. Not too long before the second churban the Sanhedrion actually left the Chamber of Hewn Stones, making capital punishment impossible during the final years of the Second Temple.

I have read, however, that there were situations even in the Exile when Jewish communities were permitted, with the permission of the host government, to execute members. Of course even the Jewish community as a sovereign Theocratic self-governing entity under the Torah was lost a couple hundred years ago . . . but the state of the Jewish community today seems to tell us that we would all be better off it the old order were restored.
