    So much lack of education on the bible. Jesus came to fulfill the law, not abolish the law. The Old Testament is used to support the coming of Jesus and that God is a righteous and just God. In the Old Testament, it is acceptable to stone people. However, historical facts would tell you that you must have at least two males witness this act in person. They would then be interviewed and even if slight details were off, the stoning did not occur. It was rare for stoning to take place. Also, Jesus said, you who is perfect may throw the first stone. If you are to throw a stone, be sure that you never have done anything to make your parents angry, frustrated, or want to "stone" you. Mat 7:1-6 says you will be judged with the same judgment. So to Felix, Diana, Kevin, Alice, BrokenRomeo, Anonymous, Riley, and to any future posters, Please be educated before answering. To Balaam, instead of anger, use love to get your message across. God bless you all.

    First of all, the Bible's literal punishments are pretty much things of the past. Secondly, instead of killing your children, you should teach them to listen to you. Thirdly killing is wrong (something stated in the Bible) and is something you should avoid doing. Fourth if this was not convincing enough for you, you will go to jail if caught.

    Typical dumb atheist. A lot of people are hating on the bible, Lel, I love the bible. The truth hurts, huh? Lel, keep being delusional, you're not a Christian, but an atheist who believe he's a baboon. God is Great, all hail Jesus.

    The bible isn't always right. Especially inthis case. Justsend them to their room or ground them. (And if your a troll. Use caps next time ;) )

    If you follow the old testament

    Death for Hitting Dad

    Whoever strikes his father or mother shall be put to death. (Exodus 21:15 NAB)

    Death for Cursing Parents

    1) If one curses his father or mother, his lamp will go out at the coming of darkness. (Proverbs 20:20 NAB)

    2) All who curse their father or mother must be put to death. They are guilty of a capital offense. (Leviticus 20:9 NLT

    God Will Kill the Children of Sinners

    If even then you remain hostile toward me and refuse to obey, I will inflict you with seven more disasters for your sins. I will release wild animals that will kill your children and destroy your cattle, so your numbers will dwindle and your roads will be deserted. (Leviticus 26:21-22 NLT)

    God Will Kill Children

    The glory of Israel will fly away like a bird, for your children will die at birth or perish in the womb or never even be conceived. Even if your children do survive to grow up, I will take them from you. It will be a terrible day when I turn away and leave you alone. I have watched Israel become as beautiful and pleasant as Tyre. But now Israel will bring out her children to be slaughtered.” O LORD, what should I request for your people? I will ask for wombs that don’t give birth and breasts that give no milk. The LORD says, “All their wickedness began at Gilgal; there I began to hate them. I will drive them from my land because of their evil actions. I will love them no more because all their leaders are rebels. The people of Israel are stricken. Their roots are dried up; they will bear no more fruit. And if they give birth, I will slaughter their beloved children.” (Hosea 9:11-16 NLT)

    Know. Commandments trump other stuff in the bible. The rest are just general guidelines.

    You need to realize that there are some parts of the bible that if meant literally would be ridiculous
