Thanks for weighing in lobster. Good to hear your opinion.

There definitely is a God, and Hisname is Jesus Christ.

The Bible is broken up into the Old Testament -Before Jesus died on the cross for us.

And the New Testament is the part of the Bible that is literal, all the Old Testament rules are past and gone
after Jesus died for us. That's what I have always thought.

So, those archaic rules of stoning people are not rules that Christians would follow .
