That's gotta hurt!
It's been said we have three brains, one cobbled on top of the next. The stem is first, the reptilian brain; then the mammalian cerebellum; finally the over developed cerebral cortex.  They don't work together in awfully good harmony - hence ax murders, mobs, and socialism.

Just to be more humane, I understand they don't do it all at once, but gives the convict (victim...) a day or so to recoup after a certain amount of lashes...    I think.


They really need to get out of the friggin middle age....


I'm becoming ever more convinced to resign from the church with all the issues with different religions.
Christianity isn't all that good either, we're only couple of hundred years ahead of Islam - culturally.
Seems to be only more trouble, and I don't need religion to know the right from wrong.
Wonder why I haven't already done that, because I could resign from the church via internet!
Ain't the technology just marvelous or what?

I'm surprised you're more angry about the punishment than the "crime"

The middle age sentance is about the crime.
It's stupid... so medieval.

You ever stop to think that Lashes might actually work over prison time?

That is, for a real crime though...

I should hope so.  750 lashes with a cat is a death sentance.  I wonder if they use a cane like they do in some Aisan counties or if it's something more like the cat of nine tails.
Do not attribute to malice what can be easily explained by incompetence, fear, ignorance or stupidity, because there are millions more garden variety idiots walking around in the world than there are blackhearted Machiavellis.

I voted both democrats and republicans in our last election, and I'm not a church goer.

You think it's outdated that they lash people, but not that they're punishing him for speaking his mind?
