i read this in the bible
Deuteronomy Chapter 13 KJV:
6 If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, which is as thine own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers; 7 Namely, of the gods of the people which are round about you, nigh unto thee, or far off from thee, from the one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth; 8 Thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye pity him, neither shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him: 9 But thou shalt surely kill him; thine hand shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people. 10 And thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die; because he hath sought to thrust thee away from the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.

Are you taking the literal interpretation just to conform to your already made up answer?

Nope. That is mosaic law that is not given to the gentile to follow or the Jew anymore for that fact. Jesus' sacrifice gave us the option of grace over law to get to Heaven.

You REALLY need to pull your head out of that dark, old, musty thing...(oh, you thought I meant the Bible? Well, yeah, that too!) and enter the 21st Century!
STONING?! PLEASE Tell us you're joking...and very badly. Then apologize, like all the fundy-repos want Kerry to do, for something he didnt' even mean!
