The people came to Jesus, trying to prove Him wrong, just as many on here try. They were trying to see if He would follow the old laws and stone her for her sin of adultery. But instead Jesus said, let He who is without sin, cast the first stone. In other words, only a sinless person had the right to condemn her. Since we are none without sin, no one threw a stone at her, and all walked away. Jesus ask her where were her accusers, and she said there were none, and He said neither do I condemn thee, go in peace. The lesson, He was trying to teach is not to judge. no one is perfect. That is in the Bible, not just in that movie.

The scene was added to give the story context as far as the role of Mary Magdalene at Jesus' side... a story that itself is out of context considering that Mary was likely not the prostitute that story refers to.
1) Jesus met and spoke with Mary by a well... they met outside of that incident.
2) That story itself is part of the gospel whose authenticity is in question (John 8:1-8). We are not sure if it is part of the actual gospel. Unlike Mark 16:9-20, however, it is consistent with John's writing style and with the content that he included in the rest of his gospel. But either way the story never mentions the prostitute by name--in John she is actually an adulteress, not a prostitute, though one does not preclude the other automatically.

I think this was primarily a lesson about people who think they are superior enough to pass judgment on others without first judging themselves.
"Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.". The moral of the story has much more to do with people who are themselves flawed but enjoy pointing out the flaws in others.

She wasn't a prostitute. She was "a woman caught in adultery". You'll notice the man she was with wasn't also about to be stoned. Although, maybe he was present, yet was not blamed for the same sin. This may account for Jesus' reaction, and his words about "casting the first stone". The fervor of the crowd to kill her was entirely rooted in hypocrisy.

Jesus pointed out that we shouldn't judge others' sin
Well, today Christians are doing exact opposite

Huh? this story wasn't supposed to even be in the bible and was added later by scribe. I personally thought the passion of the Christ wasn't violent enough. I mean if you are gonna make a fictional movie at least add more explosions. And where was Samuel L Jackson?

My first thought was "why did they make her a prostitute in the movie?"

Forgiveness for all who come to Him.
My second thought, where are the men who made her a sinner ?
