I'm not sure what Lisa was saying with the starter - but she's quoted Jesus when the religious leaders of the day wanted to stone a woman caught in adultery. The problem is that often the end of the account is often forgotten - Jesus didn't just say 'Let him who is without sin cast the first stone'...he continued by saying to the woman 'Go and sin no more'. It is not a nice cosy story telling us to be 'tolerant' - rather he challenges both the hypocrisy of the religious leaders AND the sin of the woman. William

It teaches that none are without sin. Someone once said 'when you point a finger at someone, you are pointing three at yourself. Daid
