Mulling over George Pope to Steve Asher 24 Oct 2005

Ah! Thanks for clearing that up. I should have realised that those who
are "pushing" the (non-biblical) "Noa(c)hide Laws" with
their executions
are falsifying the situation, and are not to be trusted. Much like the
President of Iran calling for Israel to be wiped off the map isn't
actually calling for Israel to be attacked or destroyed.

So, when I find a pronouncement such as.... "the only punishment meted
out by the Noahide courts of law in criminal cases is the death penalty",
I will know that this is not only false, but utterly false. :)

Thanks, but I will stick with the statements about death penalty,
execution, beheading and the like to be found on the various Noahide
web sites. Noone, apart from you, appears to be saying it isn't so.

Why would that be? Are they all ignorant and misinformed?

Cheers, Steve..
