Casting Stones or Wielding Whips
In a post that touches on my post below, at least in regards to adultery, Richard Nikoley points to an Amnesty International posting entitled “Sudan: 16-year-old Girl to be Flogged for ‘Crime’ of Adultery." Though I would be under no threat of punishment in the Sudan because I committed adultery, I find this type of thinking in regards to punishment of individuals who pursue sexual fulfillment outside of “social” conventions, reprehensible.
