Stoned in Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria

I just watched Soraya the Stoned, and it was very heavy. The movie refers to the ancient folk lynching of stoning, and it uses a female injustice to deepen the story.

Stone punishment is criticized by modern society because of its cruelty. As Soraya said in the movie: "I'm not afraid of death, I'm afraid of the process of death, the pain of those stones." The
death penalty has shown a kind of retribution for evil, and now it is necessary to participate in the participation of irrelevant people, Let everyone become the executioner, is this for the sake of evenly sharing the sin of murder to embolden it? Or is it to warn and deter people to show justice? In fact, this is a kind of hostage, holding the foolish people to rule the foolish people. We should maintain a doubtful and disgusting heart, keep calm and think independently, because if we are not careful, we will become accomplices.

Jesus was against stoning. In ancient times, he was against the death penalty, because he said, "Whoever is innocent among you can stone her first." Now, many countries have sent troops to bomb Libya, and there are enemies. There are neighbors, and it seems that Libya will be stoned to death like Iraq and Yugoslavia. It is not so much that they could not find a peaceful solution to their conflicts, but that they forgot the teachings of God and assumed the righteousness of the world.

At this point, Jesus and I should have had the same idea in saving people back then: when everyone killed a sinner, they only killed the sinner’s body, but did not redeem the sinner’s soul, or even the souls of everyone. Therefore, such a death sentence is meaningless and can be corrected. The death of Jesus is different. Jesus can even say that he was not murdered, but actively asked to die in order to redeem the souls of mankind.

    Soraya M lived in a dry and remote village in Iran. Her husband who wanted to divorce falsely accused her of adultery in order to save alimony. "The husband testifies to the wife, and the wife must prove her innocence. The husband must be proven guilty." Under such a law, Soraya was speechless and sentenced to death by throwing rocks. "How can you treat me like this? The world will know." Soraya mourned before dying

    The director of this film is as courageous as Mel Gibson's filming of The Passion, but in the eyes of a layman like me, it is still too challenging to bear the bottom line, and I give up halfway through watching it. . . A travel friend said that she lived in Tehran for half a year with her husband who was working in Iran and then escaped.
