Mulling over George Pope to Steve Asher 08 Nov 2005

 SA> For those who have trouble believing that breaches of the
 SA> "noahide laws" are punished with beheading / decapitation,
 SA> the Jewish Encyclopedia online seems to be clear that the
 SA> punishment for a breach of any of the "laws" is decapitation,
 SA> as below. So kind of them to use the "least painful" means
 SA> of execution.

 GP> Except no Jewish rabbinic ruling has any validity unless it can be
 GP> shown to directly link back to a specific point made in Holy
 GP> Scripture, and this ludicrous claim that breaching the Noachide
 GP> Laws must result in decapitation has zero basis in the Bible!

Hmmm... perhaps you could tell them that; they don't seem to be aware
of your conditions. While you are at it, you could point out that the
"noahide laws" are not found in the Bible, and are not binding on 
so-called noahides, or anyone else.

They might not take any notice of you, however. :)

Cheers, Steve..
