democracy stopped the first stone

7.26: co.apt/relig/jesus.christ/not-sinned throw the first stone:

. a radio preacher was telling us about

JC saving the whore from being stoned:

was this to mean "(don't judge lest you be judged?),

no, the preacher scoffed,

it simply meant to not be a hog about judging !

. I don't think this preacher has it all together .

. JC spent a lot of time telling his own that

their laws were not fair .

. he was saying that untouchables were being blamed as sinnners,

when they should be understood as victims .

. why would a woman typically choose to be a whore?

these days she might need an underworld job

to support an underworld habit;

but back then,

she was likely not being respected by men

and her sex was the only thing she had

to earn a living .

. there wasn't anything convincing about

needing to be sinless in order to throw the first stone;

it's likely that anything confrontative JC said

could have reminded the crowd

that he had a powerful influence with other crowds,

and he might remember the first stone thrower .
